Wayne Allyn Root, a longtime political commentator and conspiracy theorist, was one of the critics. Root is a Trump supporter and even opened for the former president at a Las Vegas rally in 2018, according to The Daily Beast.

Speaking with Jones, a radio host and conspiracy theorist, on Wednesday, Root praised the former president, saying he considers him a friend, before taking aim at Trump’s vaccine comments.

“He needs an intervention from a friend, because he’s the greatest president of my lifetime. I love him. I will always love him,” Root said of Trump. “He’s been right on everything except this issue. He’s so horribly wrong on this issue.”
