“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.
Did this dude have a Scrooge moment or something??
Mitch McConnell had polio himself. He knows what the vaccine defends against
All the more unfathomable that he could have seen those horrors and still turned out to be so evil.
The funny part is, with how wacko things have been in the last 2 months, it would not surprise me one iota for him and the balance of the last dozen old guard repubs to defect to the dems over something like this.
He’s old enough that he had polio before their were vaccines to prevent it, and had a leg paralyzed for an extended period of time. Probably saw other kids forced to live in an iron lung and maybe even die
He’s retired. So he can say whatever he might have otherwise retained from saying.
By the same token, it doesn’t matter what he says since he will have no power.
