"Let me contextualize. When you're number 48 for mental health, when we're number one for maternal mortality, when you have an incarceration rate that is on the rise and wages are on the decline, then you are not the number one place to live," sounds spot-on to me.

The GOP wanting to pretend that 48th, and 50th are the same as being first seems to be the unforced error.
