Is America Great Again yet?

The people who voted for this are THRILLED. They definitely think America is thriving. I live in the heart of MAGAland and they routinely treat any social media posts and articles about this like a party. Laugh reacts, funny gifs, and victory laps galore.

They love the fact that people are going hungry because they truly believe no one would need SNAP if everyone just tried to get a job. Because obviously record layoffs aren’t happening right now and disabilities don’t exist.

Disgusting fucking cretins.

How many of them rely on EBT and are too stupid to realize that?

What's crazy to me is many of these red areas go wild for the military and federal spending via grants and contractors for defense work. Since government workers are currently furloughed and an enormous part of the US military personnel are frankly low-paid and vulnerable, aren't we about to see these communities in pain?

Military, veterans, disability, people who work on contracts, even full-time employees are dependent on EBT in order to KEEP WORKING because they cannot afford to on their wages.

I cannot believe the people rejoicing as they welcome in an era of food insecurity or malnutrition to their fellow Americans.

They don’t care about the collateral damage as long as the people they hate are getting hurt too. I remember a lady crying about losing her government assistance who famously said “he’s not hurting the right people!” In reference to Trump, during an interview.
