"Cuomo is a Republican now?" MSNBC host Chris Hayes' brazen partisan spin on nursing home COVID19 deaths "is 100% gaslighting"

Every once in a while, MSNBC's Chris Hayes has a take that's not completely terrible.
This ... is not one of those times:
Chris Hayes ~ The party of "OBAMA DEATH PANELS WILL INVOLTUNARILY EUTHANIZE YOUR GRANDPARENTS" is now embracing the positon that "Well, a lot of the folks dying from this are seniors in nursing homes so it doesn't really count."
Fusilli Spock ~ Chris Hayes lies to further a narrative.
He says that it's the GOP embracing "vulnerable people are going to die from this virus no matter what you do." Whereas that was literally said by Gov. Cuomo, D-NY.
This is 100% gaslighting.
Ahem:
Sean Medlock ~ Replying to @chrislhayes:
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo:
"Older people, vulnerable people are going to die from this virus. That is going to happen despite whatever you do."
{Embedded Video of Cuomo's speech}
Gaslighting is right. Chris would like his followers to get the impression that he, unlike Republicans, has been concerned about elderly deaths from COVID19 in nursing homes from the get-go.
That's ... not the case:
neontaster ~ Area man extremely concerned about nursing home crisis.
So basically, Chris is just a poseur and a fraud. And effectively an apologist for Andrew Cuomo.
Seventh Son ~ Are you talking about Andrew Cuomo?
Allen Covert ~ Who is saying that? Governor Cuomo maybe but I don't think he was a "death panel" guy.
stock ~ That's Cuomo's position. Which party is he in?
RALPH KERN (Vetus reprobi simus) ~ Isn't that the Cuomo Rule ???
Ron Coleman ~ Cuomo is a Republican now? That's a problem for me.
Justona Moore ~ Yes. Andrew Cuomo and Ezekiel Emanuel are both Democrats, and both with the usual democrat disregard and disrespect for the lives of people they don't personally cherish.
EducatedHillbilly ~ Dude ... you have LITERALLY praised the guy who forced nursing homes to take #COVID19 + patients killing 1000's of elderly New Yorkers!
Mo Mo ~ DeSantis did a good job of protecting seniors in nursing homes, by moving COVID patients out. He's being demonized.
Cuomo did a horrible job of protecting seniors by requiring COVID patients to be sent back to nursing homes. He's being lionized.
All of this raises an important exit question:
EducatedHillbilly ~ Does journalism make you immoral or do you start that way?
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
