Sen. Joni Ernst is in New Hampshire this weekend, speaking at a NHGOP fundraiser to set up her own political future just days after she showed the entire country how little she cares about the future or well-being of hard-working Americans.

“Well, we all are going to die” is the tone-deaf quip Sen. Ernst had to offer last week, in response to a constituent who expressed concern over how the devastating cuts to Medicaid in the GOP budget plan will cause people to perish. And when Iowans rightly recoiled at her cruelty, she didn’t apologize — she doubled down. She filmed an odd and sarcastic video from a cemetery, mocking the real harm these policies would cause for the most vulnerable people nationwide.
