Over 100 Americans Died Of COVID During Senate Hearing Where Ron Johnson Compared It To The Flu

Wisconsin GOP Sen. Ron Johnson held a disinformation hearing on Tuesday in which he downplayed COVID-19, touted unproven treatments and even compared the virus to the regular flu.
“Is it that much worse (than the flu)?” the Wisconsin Republican asked, with a straight face, during his sham Senate hearing.

During his program on Tuesday night, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes blasted Sen. Johnson’s comments and pointed out that in the span of the Wisconsin Republican’s short hearing, more than 100 Americans died of COVID-19.


SERIOUSLY, WISCONSIN? DUMP THIS ASSHOLE.

Rhodes Scholar Russ Feingold.

That was the same election that gave the country Joni Ernst, Scott Walker, Rick Scott, Rick Snyder, and Paul LePage (among others).

We just barely missed getting Sharron Angle and the Delaware witch.

God help us all.
