Turns out, people on opposite ends of the political spectrum CAN put their differences aside and help one another… as long as one of them has been suffering from life-threatening health conditions.
That was proven on Thursday when Patton Oswalt turned a Twitter argument with a Donald Trump-supporter into a major donation effort after discovering that the Vietnam vet picking a fight with him was very ill.

Encouraging his followers to make a donation to Michael Beatty’s staggering medical bills, the AP Bio actor shared a link to the man’s GoFundMe page and wrote:
Healing him with kindness! Literally!
Not only did the spotlight lead to an outpouring of donations — with over $11,000 raised as of this writing — it actually got Liberal and MAGA Twitter to very briefly join forces for the greater good!
Beatty, for his part, thanked his nemesis-turned-benefactor and everyone who helped pay the “massive medical costs” he racked up after being hospitalized for sepsis and diabetic ketoacidosis, tweeting:
Making America WELL again.
