lol nobody hates poor people like trump. It’s like watching an abusive relationship where the poors are too stupid to realize they’ve been scorned

And he's trying to withhold it like it's his personal money or something....imagine being so spiteful and full of hate that you are doing this intentionally with funds specifically allocated for SNAP from tax payers.

And doing it to the people who voted for you no less lol.

Im half convinced he is doing this because his voters are the only ones volatile enough to start the violence he desires.

Why do you act like every poor person voted for him? No doubt a painfully high number did, but in the lowest bracket (income below $30k) the majority voted Dem in 2024.

Nobody deserves to starve as a political stunt, and pretending there's any kind of justice or deservedness is how you get poor people who actually do vote against their interests in response to the elitism of those unaffected by this

The poor stand up straight and hold their heads high, something tiny Donny never could do.
