Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) had an uncharacteristically warm Twitter exchange on Thursday following the announcement of Raskin’s cancer diagnosis a day earlier.

Sharing a Fox News headline on Raskin’s diagnosis, Green sent well wishes to her Democratic colleague.

That show of compassion was both kind and smart of Marjorie to do then. She showed a different side of herself, vs the combative partisan who is helping the GOP.
Not that the Dems would ever publicly return the favor were conditions reversed.

This is the sort of thing that makes me feel better about humanity.

She put aside any feelings of political differences to do that, was big of her.

“This was very kind of her.”

It was. Myself, I hope he dies a prolonged and miserably painful death for his part in orchestrating a coup in November 2020.

there are very few things in life, that will rub our noses in the fact we are mortal, more than ‘cancer’.

She did a good thing.

i am a cancer survivor. never kick a cancer patient when they are diagnosed, and just starting treatment ... that is a poison there is no cure for.

I’m confident you are correct. We must strive to be better which is a low bar indeed.

And that's why our side loses.

I agree. If we model our behavior on those that are evil and repulsive to us, we are no better than they.

Every politician in DC gets along on a personal basis when the cameras are off. When cameras are on, they pretend to despise each other because that means votes and money. Meanwhile, all us little people waste time wishing harm on people like Raskin while Raskin and Greene laugh at us from their glamorous cocktail parties.

The difference is that, just like “beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clear down to the bone” — the ugliness on the outside of Dems’ behaviour, is only a faint indication of all they’d really do to their opponents, is given half a chance.

Yeah but cancer has caused him to spew more venom from that big mouth of his lately.

I never wish cancer on anyone. I also don’t think pushing tyranny on to people is forgivable.

It’s always heartwarming to see our side reach across the aisle as quickly as possible. Maybe now they will finally like us.

They were the same ghouls who spread the meme showing Grant Gustin, flashing a V sign and sh*t eating grin in front of Rush’s tombstone. Not posting it out of respect, but y’all get the idea
