“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.
It’s not the only reason. He also isn’t running for office anymore. If he was still running he’d probably say nothing.
There is no cause for confusion, be at ease. Even an especially unintelligent conservative can easily comprehend the danger of their own policies, once the harm is made intimate to them.
