Really sad. He was one of the few older Dems I actually respected.

A sad day indeed - RIP Elijah.

Awful

Sad day

Once they couldn’t bathe in the blood of Vietnamese children, Republicans turned to using ritualistic hatred and bigotry in order to live forever.

RIP Elijah Cummings

Gahhhh. This sucks.

:sob:

And now we’ll have to endure whatever disgusting comments about him Trump comes up with. Very sad.

What a loss. Dude spit fire and was a great orator.

“As a country, we are so much better than this,” he said with rising emotion. “When we’re dancing with the angels, the question will be asked: In 2019, what did we do to make sure we kept our democracy intact?”"

Very sad and sudden. I liked what I knew about him; he seemed to be one of the good ones.

In a story I read today, he had not done a roll call vote since September 11. He was in a hospice, and I think hadn’t been seen on the hill for over 6 weeks. I had no idea, and I’m sure most other people didn’t know he wasn’t around and was basically terminal when he had an infection happen after a minimally invasive heart surgery.
