Afaik profit is profit whether it’s from subsidies or sales. On top of that, the government gave them grants to develop said vaccines, so r&d was highly discounted… Production of most vaccines as way cheap compared to r&d, so I doubt there is ever any “selling for a loss”. Combine that with state mandates requiring kids to get vaccines before attending school (I’m not saying this is bad… Public health is a good thing), and you have a captive customer base.

A lot of Mr brain worms plans would seriously cut into the profits of major pharmaceuticals and agricultural behemoths that are major donors of Trump’s campaign. I can’t imagine them allowing trump to cut into their profits like that.
