Soo... that actual argument from Republicans today is that Gorsuch didn't say "hundreds of thousands" of flu deaths (which is wrong) but said "hundreds, thousands" of flu deaths (WHICH IS ALSO WRONG).
* If Gorsuch think the flu killing hundreds of thousands of people (which it doesn't) means we should ignore Covid (which does) he's wrong.
If Gorsuch thinks the full killing hundreds of people (which it doesn't) means we should ignore Covid (which has killed 800K) he's wrong.
If Gorsuch thinks the full killing hundreds of people (which it doesn't) means we should ignore Covid (which has killed 800K) he's wrong.
To believe that Gorsuch said or meant to say "hundreds thousands" instead of "hundreds of thousands" then you have to believe his argument was "The flu kills vastly fewer people than Covid and we don't require flu shots so we shouldn't require vaccines against the deadlier thing"
WHICH WOULD BE AN EVEN DUMBER ARGUMENT THAN THE DUMB AND FACTUALLY INCORRECT POINT HE WAS TRYING TO MAKE.
