Paul Ryan thinks it’s ‘hysterical’ to point out that Trumpcare will kill people
“During an interview with a Wisconsin radio station on Thursday, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) accused Trumpcare opponents of using ‘over the top’ and ‘hysterical’ rhetoric when they point out the well-understood connection between people losing health insurance and people dying. ‘The rhetoric is just over the top,’ Ryan said. ‘I have seen a lot in my day and this rhetoric — it’s hysterical, it’s hyperbolic, it’s really something.’ Ryan went on to suggest that in the wake of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) being shot and seriously wounded at Republican congressional baseball team practice on June 14, Trumpcare opponents need to tone it down.”
