If stupidity were a crime, Ed Krassenstein would be serving about 63 consecutive life sentences. Seriously. The Resistance grifter — who is actually legit obsessed with Donald Trump and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — genuinely thinks this is an intelligent, coherent thought worth sharing with the world:
Science wiped out Measles.
The GOP brought Measles back.
Keep voting Republican and maybe we can manage to bring the Black Plague back by 2021!

Maybe Science can come up with a vaccination against Ed’s hot takes. Even his fellow Resisters are calling him out for this one.
You're reaching. Stop.

Ed, why are you posting this? I like most everything you post but this is bizarre!

There is nothing correct here. The republicans didn’t do this, stupid parents did. I’m in danger, I am allergic to MMr, this is not a joke.

Noooo, that’s not why measles are back. This sort of tweet diminishes your credibility, much like the Resident’s lies make him not credible. Don’t make me unfollow you over this issue. Just say yes to vaccines, in a non-partisan way, please.

I respect most of what you say, yet this is to far out there. The GOP didn’t do this and to say so diminishes all we want to change. We can’t expect those that support the GOP to listen to us, and possibly agree with us, and want what we want when tweets like this are said.

Respecting most of what he says is a big part of the problem. You’re just empowering him to shout louder. The best cure for Krassensteinism is to point and laugh at him.
How exactly did the GOP do this?

Puhleeze. The GOP is not responsible for the disinformation.

Not true. I know some progressive folks that don't believe in them as well.

Okay, that's a stretch!

You have got to be the dumbest man alive.

For a guy who claims to respect Science, he sure has a penchant for pulling facts out of his butt:
The NRA literally banned guns from their own convention because they are too dangerous, yet they are promoting the idea of putting guns into schools.
Don't tell me the NRA isn't a terrorist organization ever again!

Don’t tell him that getting talking points from Code Pink is an instant credibility killer (not that he had any credibility to begin with).
