Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced yesterday that he was ending Covid-19 related mandates in the state, and Democrats immediately and not unexpectedly slammed the decision. Beto O’Rourke is also among the Democrats being critical, except he claims Gov. Abbott is willingly letting people die for political gain:

Beto works in his requisite “death cult” talking point: "It’s hard to escape the conclusion that it’s also a cult of death … You have folks literally upending civilization as we know it." pic.twitter.com/RSXlzZAbzh

Not hyperbole?
When they say “this isn’t hyperbole”, get ready for a tsunami of hyperbole. https://t.co/axrRUEBzb2

That's the epitome of hyperbole.

“The politician I disagree with is literally trying to kill everybody” has certainly run its course, not that people like O’Rourke are going to let it go.
The accusation of "Politician X is intentionally murdering his constituents to win political favor (elections)" has always baffled me. https://t.co/JHRsVAFrkA

O’Rourke’s just hoping nobody thinks it through.
They never want it to end, they want you to live in fear forever. Cant wait til Texas turns out like Florida and these idiots have zero leg to stand on. https://t.co/3BS6ZryK5W
