11. That's it right there

The American people went to great lengths and sacrifice in March, April and May to buy time to come up with a plan. You and your party utterly wasted that effort, locked in pointless disputes about the efficacy of masks and social distancing, chasing after red herrings like injecting disinfectant or hydroxychloroquine, and ignoring or discounting the best advice from the medical professionals.

Two months later, the first wave never broke, and the pandemic has come roaring back worse than ever because Republicans couldn't stand the idea that someone somewhere might be getting more money from the CARES Act band-aid than they could from their shitty minimum wage job. So Collins and her party went against the best practices because the selfish madman in the White House and his yammering idiot cadre couldn't abide looking weak in the face of the pandemic. We abandoned our efforts that were working, started clustering together without precautions, and the epidemiologists were proven 100% right while Trump's hunches turned out 100% wrong.

So now you're concerned, Senator Collins? Eat a heaping, steaming plate of shit, you ghoul.
