It was people with the same kind of banally evil mindset of this MAGA US Senator who had no moral qualms about passively participating in or willfully ignoring the genocide being committed by their nation's political leaders in Germany some eighty or so years ago. Is that an unfair, extreme comparison? No, not at all. How else can you possibly view someone who when told that decisions being made by Drumpf's administration are going to result in the premature, unnecessary deaths of many Americans, their response is, "we are all going to die" anyway?
Link: Joni Ernst Stoops to Shocking Low When Told Medicaid Cuts Will Kill | The New Republic
"Republican Senator Joni Ernst had a particularly unhinged response to questions from her constituents at a town hall in Parkersburg, Iowa, on Friday.
Ernst was asked about the GOP’s budget bill kicking people off of Medicaid, and her condescending answer quickly became callous and flippant as the Iowa politician smirked at the audience.
“When you are arguing about illegals that are receiving Medicaid, 1.4 million, they’re not eligible, so they will be coming off, so—” Ernst began, before an audience member shouted, “People are going to die!”
“People are not—well, we all are going to die,” Ernst responded, as the audience drowned her in loud protests."
The people and party who thump their bibles the hardest and who revel in using their warped religiosity as a weapon to demonize and spread fear and hate of others wants all of us to know that we are all going to die anyway, so just lay back and accept the efforts by a coup-plotting, convicted felon and rapist and his cult to turn this country into a totalitarian, kleptocratic shithole like his BFF Putin has done in Russia.
