“Efforts to undermine public confidence in proven cures are not just uninformed — they’re dangerous,” said the Republican leader, who is a polio survivor.
This is apparently the point where the “moderate” Republicans are willing to start pushing back — where they’ve got personal experience with just how evil a policy is.
Mitch McConnell is the voice of reason!? Make it make cents, since, sents, scents, sense.
Probably the single benefit of him being as old as he is. He had polio as a kid. He knows exactly how bad that shit is. He might be a stupid, evil motherfucker, but even he isn’t that stupid.
It’s also the only reason he cares. Because the only time a Republican ever cares about suffering is if they have personal experience with it. They have a total lack of empathy.
Either die a villain or live long enough to become a hero? Wait that doesn’t sound right.
I hate that Mitch McConnell has become the voice of reason. It doesn’t sit well with me at all.
The Overton Window cuts both ways!
I didn’t grow up a centrist. But the window moved both to the left and to the right of me!
M8! The only prominent politicians in American politics who are actually left of centre are Bernie Sanders and AOC. People weren’t excited about Harris because she’s left, they were just grateful for the opportunity to vote for someone who isn’t a white supremacist with pretty advanced frontotemporal dementia. But make no mistake the vast majority of the democrats are regarded as right of centre by europeans.the window didn’t move left at all, you just moved with it
The Overton Window is about the population, not the politicians. The left in the US has moved more left and the right has moved more right. The difference is that the republicans have turned over a lot of their members to stay in the window as it moves right. McConnell is one of the last of the old guard of traditional (as opposed to alt right) conservatives.
The democrats so far have managed to keep their old guard by appealing to fear and other tactics. They’re fighting so hard to keep the party from moving leftward and it’s costing them elections.
Too late turtlefucker, you set this machine in motion, there’s no going back now. Enjoy the last few years watching the nation you took for granted collapse before you die.
This cum stain will never ever have to truly see any consequences for what he has done.
That’s the difference here that we should really be highlighting. These people may as well live on another planet, that’s how much more privilege and just downright evil these people are working with.
Dealing with their own actions hasnt even been on their radar a little bit.
Did this dude have a Scrooge moment or something??
Mitch McConnell had polio himself. He knows what the vaccine defends against
