The Trump administration has unveiled a plan to kick 3 million Americans off food stamps

to receive food stamps in 43 states. Sometimes this means that families of four who make just above $33,000 a year but have high childcare costs, or seniors with enough money in the bank to pay for a single unexpected car repair, will end up receiving government assistance so they don’t have to go hungry.

Critics of the proposed change say that it would penalize low-income families who make just enough money from work—you know, that thing Republicans are always telling the lazy poor to do—but who also have housing and childcare expenses that leave them with insufficient funds to buy food. The program also

265,000 school children for free lunches; under Team Trump’s proposal, those kids would have to separately apply, and possibly not qualify, for those meals. Senatorthat the rule was an obvious attempt to bypass Congress, which has previously blocked the administration’s attempts to cut food stamps.

IAmJulesWard Maybe it's time they got jobs and bought their own food?

Good

That’s why he eats ten bigmacs , so nobody else can have one !

Hopefully this will wake up some of his stupid supporters to the fact that he doesn’t care about them. A lot of trump supporters are on food stamps.

Lol the picture

JuddApatow 2 creeps laughing. That’s 2 weeks of nightmares 4 me.

Jerks.

JuddApatow The Deplorable States of America everyone. I love how the 1%can keep jerking each other off at the expense of the literal 99%. Rich people can't fight. That's all I'm saying. There's more of us than them.

JuddApatow This is a solid 3 million votes we can count on in 2020. Vote against racism and white supremacy.

It will result in a national crime wave

JuddApatow He wants us to be a country that migrants won't be tempted to come to. Effectively HE is choosing who is worthy to be here..... Sound familiar Adolf trump?

JuddApatow Omg, why has this not happened sooner? Poor people are so ripping off the government. Honestly who really cares if they can eat or feed their children /s. They have no food? Let them eat cake (this seems to be the govt motto under tRump).

Silly poor people remember dotdotdot i am Emperor Trump dotdotdot and i make the laws dotdotdot my poor people won't strave dotdotdot just die ! dotdotdot ;)

Lost election popular vote by 3mm Coincidence 🤔

JuddApatow Most of them are Trump voters.

JuddApatow exactly as everyone predicted when the tax cuts were announced

JuddApatow I’m sure MAGA voters won’t feel this at all 🙄

Probably in those drug-infested counties in Kentucky....

Only a rich man can say something stupid like that!!!

What does he know about being poor

I love the rhetoric, like they are completely different animals or something. Come on, using the words the poor is pretty demeaning for a country that basically manufactures inequality.

Tell those hippies to get a job.

Meanwhile he clearly doesn’t skip so much as a snack or second breakfast

TWO THIRDS OF HIS POORLY EDUCATED SUPPORTERS AND ENABLERS.

This from someone who puts ketchup on steak ugh

President Trump,until you experience hunger personally, may I suggest that you not run your mouth about a subject you know nothing about. By the looks of you,you have never missed a meal. For someone who talks constantly, you do not say anything of worth. Please be quiet.

ShireenGhorbani Shocking. Not

after all, it's expensive keeping kids in cages, propping up failing golf courses, daring mutually assured destruction via twitter, and not starting impeachment proceedings so that pelosi can instead write *stern letters* to the white house

Davidlaz Whatis the impact of kicking 3.1 million people off food stamps on American farmers?

Davidlaz The cruelty is the point.

I think you mean black people, brown people and women.

evimrkou They sell the food stamps to get cigarettes and booze... they sit all day do nothing and want us to pay for them! Hell no! Food stamps only to elderly and disabled. Everyone else can work!!!!!

Taking from those who need the most support, including hundreds of thousands of children. Typical.

frankmcdonald60 Trump behaves like a tyrranous monarch. Was it for this the Mayflower sailed?

The cruelty is the point. evergreentweet

I don't care

I have never understood how an (alleged) billionaire can appeal to working people. His entitlement speaks for itself here. But I’m sure his base will rationalise this down to sorting spongers. Sign of the times..

there go 3MM of the MoronInChief supporters....

The program does need an overhaul. I worked at a grocery store and witnessed recipients paying cash for cigarettes and lottery tickets. Many of them have iPhones too. Of course not all of them do this but there must be a way to sort out those who do. PS- I do not support DT.

And the media is still obsessing about Trump’s bullying the 4 congresswoman. Both issues important, but this is bad and not getting the attention it deserves.

😡😠☠👨‍👩‍👧‍👧👎👎👎👎👎

Guess he doesn’t need 3 million votes

Most of them voted for him
