Republican failure to pay tribute to those who died from COVID speaks volumes.

[gulliver]

To me, the absence of Republican leadership and media paying tribute to the COVID-19 dead is the textbook definition of a glaring omission. Sometimes it's what you don't say that tells people something about you. Would it have hurt the Republicans (even Fred Trump's brat) to say a little something nice about all the people who have died?

They're saying nothing, but it seems to me we should all be hearing that silence as something. Are they telling everyone they feel guilty and want to hide from some truth? Maybe they don't want to eulogize people they have been (and continue to be) willing to let die? Maybe they don't want to own what they did and continue to do?

1. You never will because that would also shine a spotlight on the President who allowed

this virus to kill 350,000+ Americans by not following the lead of science. Best not to pay tribute at all if you are a Republican apoloigist.

2. They want the victims to apologize to them

3. Even more telling is that they're demanding that Trump get credit for the vaccine...

While refusing to take it.

4. Yes, demanding that Trump get credit for the vaccine

for something that is really just a mild case of the flu.

5. 15 cases down to zero!
