The GOP just got 216 votes, and their caucus cheered.

They cheered passing a bill that will kill people.
UPDATE: This is the most vile display I have ever seen in politics. Republicans started singing "Nah nah nah nah / hey hey hey / goodbye" as the vote count reached 216.
Once GOP vote hit 216, Dems started singing to them. Hey, hey, good bye pic.twitter.com/gNaAOFE8WH

Some people say it was the Dems singing; some say GOP. I thought it was the GOP. In any case, the GOP passed an obscene bill. I am gutted.

I am also the proud owner of several preexisting conditions, one of which is life-threatening without expensive medication. So as the GOP cheers and cracks out their beer to celebrate, I'll be over here wondering if I will survive the Trump administration.
