As Rep. Steve Scalise lay in his hospital bed recovering after he was shot
by a maniac gunman who was hunting congressional Republicans, an MSNBC host
asked whether the House Majority Whip’s life-threatening injuries meant
Americans had to “ignore” his political positions.
Joy Ann Reid on Saturday cited Scalise’s positions on ObamaCare and gay
marriage as among the concerning “moral” issues she felt couldn’t be
overlooked despite his critical injury at the hands of a left-leaning
lunatic who opened fire at a GOP baseball practice on June 14.
“There’s a whole country out there and a lot of people, at least in my
Twitter timeline, and it’s a delicate thing, because everybody is wishing
the congressman well and hoping that he recovers, but Steve Scalise has a
history that we’ve all been forced to sort of ignore on race,” Reid said.
She added later: “He also co-sponsored a bill to amend the Constitution to
define marriage as between a man and a woman. He co-sponsored the House
health care bill which, as you said, would gut health care for millions of
people including 3 million children and he co-sponsored a bill to repeal the
ban on semiautomatic weapons. Because he is in jeopardy and everybody is
pulling for him, are we required in a moral sense to put that aside in the
moment?”
Scalise, R-La., was among five people shot by James Hodgkinson on the
morning of June 14. The gunman was killed by Capitol Police officers who
were part of Scalise’s security detail. The personal life of one of those
officers prompted a tweet from Reid promoting the segment.
“Rep. #Scalise was shot by a white man with a violent background, and saved
by a black lesbian police officer, and yet… #AMJoy,” she wrote.
