“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.

    There’s a difference between supporting an act and supporting a person. You can say that this is a good thing while also acknowledging what a piece a shit they are. Moscow Mitch has fucked the country over in more ways than one but if we can keep the polio vaccine then I would call that a win for everyone.

      It’s not much of a win if all the other vaccines get thrown out. Not dying from polio doesn’t really matter as much when it’s easy to die from measles, mumps, etc.
