Just in case you’d forgotten that Rep. Morrison is a doctor, even after her starting 1,000,000 tweets, website postings, Facebook posts, soundbites, TikToks, Reels, Instagrams, Snapchats and MySpace posts:
A lab coat.
In the well of the House.
Does she keep a lab coat in her office, in case there’s some emegency where someone in a lab coat needs to respond?
Or just because saying “I’m a doctor” for the 1,000,001st time still hasn’t convinced anyone?

How much is two plus two?
Seven.
No, it’s four.
It’s seven. I’m a doctor.
Expertise in one field does not prove expertise in all fields. That is a logical fallacy called Appeal to Authority.
This ignorant woman signed off on the biggest spending and related fraud boondoggle in Minnesota history. Excuse me if I call her out on her bull crap on the BBB. Those “doctors” are only raising hell about cuts (the ignorant, lying perceptions of the left overall) to Medicare and Medicaid. Gotta protect their guaranteed sources of income. This why elected critters that are doctors, should abstain from voting on laws and/or issues that they make money on.
What Bigman says about the appeal to authority fallacy. It should be noted that Morrison is also a Blake and Yale graduate, so we might guess that she has a certain degree of entitlement in her that would translate well to her “appeal to authority” fallacies.
Regarding what she actually wrote, I’ve heard the claims that cutting Planned Parenthood will gut care for the poor, but that only applies if there are no actual medical clinics in the vicinity. If there are actual medical clinics nearby, allowing Medicaid funding to go to Planned Parenthood instead of actual doctors simply guts medical care for those who need something beyond a pap smear, contraception, or an abortion.
Regarding the rest of it, if she wants to play appeal to authority because she’s a doctor, I’ll do the same as an engineer who is pretty sure most “green” energy sources are, when you count everything involved, actually pretty “brown”, especially the coal fired power plants providing the power to the wafer fabs in China making solar panels.
Seems to me the distrust in doctors will soon be on par with the distrust in politicians. Distrust in doctors that are also politicians will be off the charts.
If she wanted to be really persuasive, she would ditch the white coat and bring in some dancing nurses. That’s how I make my life altering decisions.
Maybe Senator Tom Cotton should wear BDUs or his dress uniform on the floor of the Senate. OK, I have played the doctor card. But only to break down the wall of nurses and receptionists.

More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette
“20,679 physicians say ‘Luckies are less irritating’”

Reminder, they wore white lab coats too – but alas, nowdays they advocate cutting the genitals off healthy children to please their oh-so-woke parents. Maybe they should go back to endorsing cigarettes.

I am also a Blake graduate, the year after Morrison. She was 1987, I was 1988. It utterly astounds me to see, of the ones who became vocally politically active, how many of my rich/wealthy/well-to-do classmates became liberal/progressive/batshit crazy. And how few became conservative.
There are 4 of us out of my class of 105 who have ever professed support for right leaning causes. Other than myself, there is one guy who is very gun centric but socially liberal. His presidential and gubernatorial votes have flipped between D and R over the years, but I’m pretty sure he would rather eat broken glass than vote for Trump. Another guy is a Jewish, 4th generation, small-to-medium business owner. He is pro-capitalism and keeps his politics mostly to himself, but was an ardent supporter of Morrison and Phillips. I am guessing he was doing it more for the alumni connection than true political ideology. However, he is definitely a pro-Israel/anti-Palestine/anti-Hamas Jew. The 4th guy used to be liberal, and in the tech/startup industry in Silicon Valley for a few decades. His ideological “journey” is very similar to Russell Brand – used to be a liberal Dem until the Dems went crazy. He moved from San Fran to Arizona about 5 years ago. He had enough stashed away that he and a couple other guys founded a flight school and now he spends his time flying around AZ and teaching other people to fly.
Of those in the rest of my class who have made any political commentary I am aware of, they’re all solidly left if not batshit crazy. I imagine most of the other graduating classes around mine (86-90) are the same way.
