no campaigning or politicking here, just pure statesman. his words are absolutely appropriate and expected from a government leader.
Which is part of the problem. This whole expectation that our leaders should hide their true feelings and motivations behind a veil of niceties only serves their goals of hiding such things from the people trying to figure out who to vote for. We should know who our politicians are as actual people, since it's the person they are in private that will motivate their actions within the government, not the nice face they put on for the public.
As I understand it, that is a large part of Trump's success with certain groups.
Admittedly, that turns off people who don't agree with what you're saying...
Does he comment on every death? If not, then he shouldn't say anything here either.
United "Healthcare" is headquartered in Minnesota, and for high profile deaths relevant to the state, yeah he kinda does.
Wait until he hears about all the people who have died after getting denied by them.
In that case, I wonder just how much "United" "Healthcare" has put in his coffers.
I'm almost certain it's not zero, I think I saw an article about that a few years ago. UHC, like a lot of companies, throws some money at every viable major politician in the state. That's where we're at with how fucked up US politics is.
Apparently they knew eachother personally...
It says on the wikipedia page.
Ah yes, the actual original meaning of politically correct.
His words were awful and defending a mass murderer that has killed at least tens of thousands of Americans just during his tenure because their boss decided to cheap out is beyond disgusting for a political candidate, much less someone in office that wants to remain in office with all their body parts still attached.
