Republicans Against Cancer Research

I know it's not nice to wish cancer on people, but Republicans do in fact deserve cancer.

"More patients may die as a result..."

Oh, puh-leeze.

We're talking about macro dials being turned. More patients WILL die as a result.

Trump is making cancer great again! What do you expect from a family who stole $2 million from a children's cancer charity?

They're absolute pieces of shht.

It's a shame what's become of America.

It was once a great nation. Envy of the world.

Until Morons took over the GOP.

Meanwhile. China may have just discovered a cure for diabetes.

Cancer rates in America are going up among the young.

this is no time to cut research this is a time to increase it.

Or does trump want china to find a way to cure people?

Cancer, schmancer. Maybe we should just give up and let it win.

Joni Ernst says we'll all die anyway. And Mitch McConnell says it's OK to cut millions of the less fortunate off Medicaid because they'll get over it.

Nice message ya got there, Repubs.
