whereas Mike Pence enabled an HIV outbreak in his state spurred by public health cuts and his stance against needle exchange. People who try to tell you that Democrats and Republicans are just the same, it does not matter who is in power, are lying.
No, they are not just exaggerating or mildly distorting the truth. They are lying.

With the exception of a brief detour into Indiana Gov. Mike Pences (R) anti-abortion beliefs during the vice presidential debate on Oct. 4, the night centered around foreign policy, not public health.
Its a shame, since lackluster public health efforts are what led to the defining moment of Pences one-term Indiana governorship: a massive HIV outbreak spurred by public health funding cuts and Pences moralistic stance against needle exchanges.
A timeline of the HIV outbreak, the worst in state history, reads like a roadmap of what to do if you want to create a public health crisis.
