Fighting the Mask Mandate then complain about COVID

Unread post by TC Talks »

Why does anybody listen to this piece of dirt? Complete pandering to the imbeciles who vote for Trumpy Republicans.
WASHINGTON — Over eight hours last Thursday night and into Friday morning, Representative Kevin McCarthy of California hit on many issues as he spoke on the House floor in an unsuccessful effort to thwart House passage of President Biden’s social safety net and climate change bill. But among his most audacious assertions was that Mr. Biden was to blame for the country’s failure to quell the pandemic.

Mr. McCarthy used this line of attack even as members of his own Republican Party have spent months flouting mask ordinances and blocking the president’s vaccine mandates, and the party’s base has undermined vaccination drives while rallying around those who refuse the vaccine. Intensive care units and morgues have been strained to capacity by the unvaccinated, a demographic dominated by those who voted last year for President Donald J. Trump.

As of mid-September, 90 percent of adult Democrats had been vaccinated, compared with 58 percent of adult Republicans.

Yet Mr. McCarthy, the House Republican leader, pressed his point: “I took President Biden at his word; I took him at his word when he said he was going to get Covid under control,” he declared in the dead of night. “Unfortunately, more Americans have died this year than last year under Covid.”
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
-Romans 16:18

No one person is going to get this under control. Biden, Trump, no one. It is going to have to be a major effort by everyone and sadly everyone is too busy with the politics to worry about the actual problem. It's all charts and graphs and statistics which look great on paper but have nothing to do with the real world effects of Covid. Sit and talk with someone who is dealing with the reality, not those who got a bit of a cold, but those who got it bad and are dealing with long term effects or the death of a friend, family member or co-worker. That is reality.
