And the terrible person award goes to...
Molly Jong-Fast, Editor-At-Large at The Daily Beast.
Congrats, Molly! You really earned it with this tweet.
Yes, Luke Letlow, Congressman-elect for Louisiana contracted Covid-19 and passed away Tuesday evening from complications. He was just 41.
Letlow had been opposed to economic shutdowns, which to simple-minded Leftists like Molly is the exact same thing as not taking Covid seriously at all. Therefore, he basically deserved to die, right?
At least that's the best moral reasoning I can come up with to justify such a despicable Tweet.
Just awful.
Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, who also happens to be a Democrat, urged people to pray for Luke Letlow's family, and said the following in a statement:
"COVID-19 has taken Congressman-elect Letlow from us far too soon," the Democratic governor said in a statement. "I am heartbroken that he will not be able to serve our people as a U.S. representative, but I am even more devastated for his loving family."
That's a great example of the way a human responds to tragic news, even if the person doesn't share your politics.
