Texas County Forced to Set Up 'Death Panel'

Texas County Forced to Set Up ‘Death Panel’

Fort Worth Star Telegram: “Starr County is at a dangerous ‘tipping point,’ reporting an alarming number of new cases each day, data show. Starr County Memorial Hospital — the county’s only hospital — is overflowing with COVID-19 patients.”

“The county has been forced to form what is being compared to a so-called ‘death panel.’ A county health board – which governs Starr Memorial – is set to authorize critical care guidelines Thursday that will help medical workers determine ways to allocate scarce medical resources on patients with the best chance to survive.”

Obama is going to setup death panels! Nope, it's happening under Trump.

Obama is going to send in federal troops to police Americans! Nope, it's happening under Trump.

Obama is going to sell America out to the Russians and other authoritarians! Nope, it's happening under Trump.

Obama is gonna balloon the federal budget deficit! After the economy recovered, the deficit starting to go down under Obama. Trump and the GOP caused it to explode again thanks to tax cuts.

Obama hates white people! Nope, but it's quite obvious that Trump hates minorities.

I could go on and on, but you get the idea.

Everything was projection.
