Dan Patrick: "Grandparents would be willing to die to save the economy for their grandchildren"

Texas Lt. Gov Dan Patrick said on Fox News Monday night that "lots of" grandparents would be willing to die in order in to save the economy for their grandchildren.
What they're saying: "No one reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the America that all America loves for your children and grandchildren? And if that's the exchange, I'm all in," Patrick said on air.
"I just think there are lots of grandparents out there in this country like me - I have six grandchildren - that's what we all care about ... And I want to live smart and see through this, but I don't want the whole country to be sacrificed. And that's what I see," he added.
The big picture: Patrick's comments come shortly after President Trump's press briefing on Monday where he said the economy will be reactivated soon as the administration plans to ease social distancing initiatives. Public health officials have strongly urged for continuing the efforts.

Just like the disgust i felt when i read about the shit the Democrats wanted to put into the bill for the stimulus package and every single one of those points have absolutely nothing to do with the coronavirus or the people directly impacted by it. Fuck both sides at this point but the democrats are the ones smelling far worse in this case.

@@MasterChief806 Republicans are literally advocating for a plague-induced slaughter of the elderly in America, with millions of people dying (from the allegedly "pro life" party). . .and you're trying to say that DEMOCRATS are the bad guys here?

Every single death in Nevada will be murder. The Democrat filth couldn't get their crap through so they used the American people as hostages to force it through extortion.
