Jamelle Bouie: A diarrhea outbreak is what happens when you elect Republicans



The CDC stopped monitoring foodborne pathogens. Now there's a national diarrhea outbreak. That's not a coincidence — it's Republican governance in miniature. Gut regulations, cut public goods, hand the savings to corporations and the wealthy, tell everyone else it's their personal responsibility to deal with the results. The Trump administration is just taking what red states have been doing for years and making it national policy.
