Bill Cassidy Cursed Us All With RFK Jr. And Still Lost His Primary

TL;DR

  • Senator Bill Cassidy lost his own primary election, being the first sitting Republican senator in nearly a decade to do so.
  • Donald Trump campaigned against Cassidy, retaliating for Cassidy's vote to impeach him.
  • Cassidy's concession speech criticized Trump's online attacks and perceived refusal to accept election results.
  • The article argues Cassidy is more at fault than RFK Jr. for public health issues, as Cassidy is a doctor who confirmed Kennedy's appointment.
  • Cassidy confirmed Kennedy despite knowing about his controversial views on vaccines, believing he could monitor Kennedy and obtain assurances.
  • Cassidy's stated reasons for supporting Kennedy involved assurances about vaccines and a belief that Kennedy could help improve American health.
  • Cassidy will remain in office until the next election, but the article suggests he has already done significant damage.
