Cool. I can't wait for my immunocompromised friend to die of a preventable disease that we had eradicated in the US until this year.

To be fair, he didn’t say it’d be better for the humans

Guys, if you live in Magastan, talk to your doctors, ask them to give you any shot they can of anything that needs a booster over time (or that you miss) and do it ASAP. If a new pandemic from a new virus comes, you'll be fucked, but at least you won't be if what you suffer is an epidemic of a fucking preventable disease.

It is truly the golden age of the idiot

That's what the media cycles misses. There's been no better time in history to be a rich uninformed idiot. History will look back on this as the golden age of the rich idiot

Next week Trump will be at the White House promoting the new Telsa Iron Lung.

Measles is a terrible disease that can easily kill you.

A true Republican. Anything that amplifies imbeciles and keeps poor people poor is the priority. Control the conversation of the masses with an endless string of stupidity so that they never think for themselves and take reasonable action. They can't collectivise with no time to think.

The republican party has some major interest in spreading measles. They may be getting financial kickback from healthcare organizations to ensure more people end up in hospitals, driving up medical debt. Or they're devils in human form. It's hard to tell.
