TAPPER: When you were asked if you regret your vote for RFK Jr, you noted you 'couldn't see into the future.' How do you respond to the criticism you just needed to look to the past bc he's been spreading disinformation for 22 years? CASSIDY: All I can say is you have to live life living forward

No, you, as a representative of the public need to research what is best for your constituents and protect them from dangerous frauds like RFKjr and fascist extremists like Blanche.

He spoke like a truly complicit imbecile, avoiding responsibility for the damage he enabled RFK,Jr to do Like the sage truism says: "Those who don't learn from the past (history) of someone or events, are doomed to repeat it again in the future." (Paraphrased)

Why is going on these shows? His political career is over. Why is he wasting his time. He isn’t convincing anyone, dem or rep. He’s just looks like a coward & despised by all.

Getting the good policies Cassidy referred to requires having strong leaders w/good judgement that would only confirm qualified pros to make decisions on our behalf. He is a failure just like the majority of his colleagues. Pointing this out is not a distraction

He is clearly ashamed. He will live the rest of his life in shame. I hope he reflects painfully every day on the horrendous damage he's done to US public health.

nothing that devious, Lawrence O’Donnell explained, former senators have senate floor, private elevator, dining room access, no lobbyists has that so they arrangements w/these senators to ‘chat’ w/their old buddies & the last thing Cassidy wants is to be shunned as it makes him completely worthless

Funny part, these people in Congress have access to resources that civilians don't have. Why don't they use them, to protect themselves? They could easily get video/audio recordings of their conversations

Such a weak reporter. Grow a spine! All of The Press is failing. They’re so busy hustling for access they’re forgetting their job is to get to the truth. If he’s gonna let this absolute basic bitch poster phrase end the line of questions, he’s not worth the air time he’s getting.

That's great for you but what about the people who have died because of the policies YOU enabled. You voted to confirm a man that, by every medical ethic, you shouldn't have. This is your legacy and we'll not let you dodge it.

As Pete Hegseth was fighting to be confirmed as Sec Def, an experienced politico came running to whip votes: Norm Coleman, fmr R senator from MN... a lobbyist with the firm Hogan Lovells, which received $3,000,000 from the Saudi Embassy the prior year responsiblestatecraft.org/revolving-do...

responsiblestatecraft.org100 former US lawmakers have become foreign lobbyistsMany of them use their access to Washington to work for authoritarian states that want to influence our foreign policy

I met w Sandra Day O'Connor + small group of HS scholars at Aspen Ideas Festival. When asked by a high schooler if she regretted any decisions, she said: "No, do your best that day and move on." This was just after the horrendous Citizens United decision. She later said she regretted it. Too late.

I'm wondering how much $$ Trump promised him to confirm RFK Jr? I'm thinking that's EXACTLY what Trump is doing! Promising lucrative financial gains to GOP/MAGAts if they support his agenda!! Fingers crossed that the $$ never materializes and losers like Cassidy snitch at some point to save face!

"And what would you say to the families of all the children who will never have the chance to 'live life forward' because of your support for dismantling their healthcare?"

“Fuck it. Tomorrow’s another day” is definitely a quality you want in a politician. Also, where is this fucking zen, never-look-back attitude when it comes to confederate statues, DEI, the 10 Commandments, Hillary fucking Clinton, Obama, minorities, coal power plants, women in the workplace etc?

Biden! They can’t stop talking about that fucking guy! It’s almost as if they think he’s still president. Hey my guy, live life fucking living forward & stop scapegoating a guy who hasn’t been in office for almost two years

Stop platforming these lying MFers. Cassidy is an MD, he knows how to read and think critically. He knew when he voted that RFKJr was lying, and he himself is lying now. Nothing he says is in good faith. Stop putting him on TV, it benefits no one but him.

I don’t think that interview benefited him. He comes off looking like the most gullible man in the world, or a shameful liar. Every journalist who has the chance should be asking him these questions

Yeah, I don't agree. I think putting these liars on TV gives them a platform to continue pretending they don't know what they're doing. Everyone knows they're lying and what is the purpose of the "interview?" Nothing is learned, no one is held accountable, it's not even interesting.

Ok, but if everyone knows he’s lying, how does it benefit him? If you want to say it’s pointless because nobody is held accountable, yeah I can definitely see that. But I fail to see how it would help him or his causes

The reason he nearly broke down on the floor the other day is not because of the criticism, it's because the weight of his own sense of humilation at what he was doing came crushing down on him in that very public moment. Tough titty, Doc. You are a coward for the ages.

That’s the weakest response he could give. If he isn’t being told to give dumbfuck answers as part of some humiliation blackmail, then I don’t know what I’m looking at.

A doctor that should have known better has endangered all of the USA by his vote for Kennedy He could care less because he’s a coward along with all the GOP

Classic psycho. Ignored the entire question and quoted a meme rather than admit he was wrong and is still wrong. Psychopaths have little or no memory and so they have no shame or learn anything. The past is fluid because nothing they say is true.

Louisiana consistently ranks near the bottom of national health evaluations, landing at No. 50 overall in U.S. News & World Report and ranking last (50th) in America's Health Rankings. The next time you interview Bill Cassidy, ask him about that.

So the past experience and behavior of individuals you are voting to appoint to the highest seats of power in government never comes into play? You never consider their past? What are you basing your vote on, present vibes? Oh, that's right. I forgot, you serve one man, not the people. Unfit.

Again, I don’t know how someone trained as a PHYSICIAN, who, ya know, takes a full medical history to help figure out what may happen to a patient in the future, misses this.

Senator Dr. Cassidy didn’t miss it. He ignored it. He looked at truth, science, and the public welfare on the one side, and his narrow political interests on the other, and chose the latter.

It reminds me of quotes of coaches who are having a losing season: “We see the way forward because that’s the way forward.” “You can only win by realizing that losing is the inverse of the reality that should have been by having lived that essence.” “We can only lose by losing that which we are.”

I honestly would have more respect for Cassidy if he said he voted to confirm RFK Jr. because he needed Trump’s endorsement for his reelection. At least then, he would look like a mere idiot instead of a blithering idiot.

Except he’s still being a sniveling coward even after losing his primary. He behaves like someone who is being blackmailed or something.. or maybe his claims to care about vaccines have always been calculated bullshit

Cassidy chose to support RFK Jr. knowing that Jr. didn’t have any medical history needed to run HHS responsibly. Cassidy wants the American people to ignore the fact that his vote has caused childhood deaths to rise. Vaccines work. Cassidy’s vote harmed children and he doesn’t belong in office.

“I have 22 years of evidence that there’s a cliff ahead yet I keep going forward until I fall off of it because today’s a new day” what kind of histage video is that?
