Apart from the fact they having been playing politics with the pandemic since day one, do they have any idea how tone deaf they sound? Always amazing the framing of the mendacious - Republicans being bad at their jobs be like "not a time for playing politics" but any circumstances that put democrats in a bad light, even as they are invariably grounded in right wing media is always the best time to play politics for the righties, even as people go hungry and fall ill and die. The economic fallout of the pandemic, for the republic is one big game, so as Pence accuses Biden of playing politics with the Pandemic, Moscow Mitch be like...
Playing politics my arse.
