Not too far from truth. A Texas Republican made a similar claim during the pandemic, to keep the economy going (read no masks, no vax), grand parents need to die since the elderly were at a higher risk to die from Covid.
I recall reading this then and looked for it, though had forgotten it was none other then the Lt. Governor.
