There are things in life more important than politics, and even some Democrats are starting to see that.
That is what prompted one top Democrat in the House to do something that is going to make House Speaker and California Rep. Nancy Pelosi furious.
New York Democratic Rep. Max Rose said he would be fine with President Donald Trump winning the presidential election in November if it meant defeating the coronavirus pandemic.
“Nothing would make me happier, nothing, than to see this president utilize all the tools at his disposal to win this war as the commander in chief that he is, and to own that success,” he said in an interview with Politico.
“And if that success means that we beat Covid and he wins reelection, then so be it. God bless him. Because we have won the greatest battle of the 21st century,” he said.
But he did make certain to cover his tracks by accusing the president of not doing everything he can to fight coronavirus.
“But I have not seen his administration assert its authority in the ways that it could,” he said, as he mentioned how the federal government responded to World War II.
“Think back again to the analogy of World War II,” he said. “We built factories and then mandated that the private sector take them over. We put people to work in terms of wartime jobs. That wasn’t just the patriotic thing to do. That was absolutely vital because people needed work. And we very well might find ourselves in that situation again.”
