They're talking about cutting off funding for Medicaid and Medicare, reducing Social Security payments, cutting funding for numerous medical research efforts, laying off thousands of IRS customer service reps in the middle of tax season, firing thousands of workers who work in public health efforts, closing Social Security offices in rural communities leaving residents in those areas without anything like remotely nearby assistance and requiring those affected to travel large distances to get in-person help.
They fired FAA workers just after we've had a string of deadly aviation disasters. They fired the Energy Department workers who maintain our nation's nuclear arsenal and got so much negative feedback on that from Americans that they had to rehire them all.
Is that really your idea of empathy?
Seriously?
What is wrong with you?
