'So incredibly ghoulish': Bill de Blasio's take on New York nursing homes that took in COVID19 patients 'is some *evil* gaslighting' [video]

Remember when not just New Yorkers, but liberals all over America, were swooning over New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio? He’s got a beautiful family! He’s so strong! He’s so progressive!

Well, some of us knew he was a joke from the beginning, and it’s nice to see the rest of the class catch up to that. Moments like this ought to help speed them along:

The chutzpah. Holy hell.

Yet NY mandated it https://t.co/1zhqpFJxym

Hold up… didn't he order these patients to go to nursing homes?

New York State *literally* ordered nursing homes to keep residents who tested positive for COVID out of hospitals, making infections rage thru their facilities. This has nothing to do with profits.

That is some *evil* gaslighting, right there. They didn't take those patients to make a buck – they took them because NY government *forced* them to.

Emphasis on the “evil” part.

They were ordered to take Covid patients into a closed environment full of the most vulnerable. De Blasio is genuinely a horrid person, and his campaign of human sacrifice should never be forgotten. https://t.co/WDX2Am4JTj

Not just in New York, btw. The treatment of nursing homes should be a national scandal. NJ also forced them to take patients and prevented their release. Remember when in Wuhan they welded buildings with patients shut? That's what Cuomo and Murphy did, more or less. Monstrous.

De Blasio knows this, but instead of admitting the state did this, he blames it on the very people trying desperately to save the lives that the state has condemned to death. It's all so incredibly ghoulish.

This man is literally satanic. What an absolute neglect of responsibility at the cost of others.

If New Yorkers don’t vote this clown out, then he is the mayor they deserve
