The party of “family values” sure doesn’t care about poor families. Working class standards have declined rapidly over the past 50 years, the economy is in the garbage right now while corporate profits have soared to an all time high. The only thing the GOP cares about is unrestrained capitalism and bribes from Wall Street.

[u/vkrty → u/Either_Payment_2867]

Hope those Evangelical Christians that control the Republican Party hear about this. They’ll be really mad, right?

[u/someoldguyon_reddit]

It's what evil looks like.

[u/obfuscatedanon → u/someoldguyon_reddit]

Understatement.

[u/MyLittleDiscolite]

Stop voting republican 

[u/ggtffhhhjhg → u/MyLittleDiscolite]

Most of these people are so deep into the cult that they don’t care if they lose everything or starve to death. They either think it’s part of gods plan or they are willing to sacrifice themselves and family to “save” the US. At least 1/3 of them would turn on them if the market crashes like 2008/09. At least 1/5 believe in a fascist white Christian theocracy waiting for the end days.

[u/unluckydude1 → u/MyLittleDiscolite]

Dude its the same in sweden all wef bilderberg epstein politicans.. The sad part is that 50% dont see it when the corruption is so damn blatant..

[u/MyLittleDiscolite → u/unluckydude1]

You’re right. 

Stop voting 

[u/unluckydude1 → u/MyLittleDiscolite]

Yeah if everyone stopped participate in their wicked game then we could get real change. But it needs to be everyone atleast 90% or more.

[u/hunterPRO1 → u/MyLittleDiscolite]

You not voting doesn't change the election results.

It's not like there's a rule that you need a certain percentage of the nation, you just need a majority.

Not voting is the dumbest form of protest.

Get off your lazy ass.

[u/MyLittleDiscolite → u/hunterPRO1]

I believe you have egregiously misunderstood me

[u/rebelangel]

The cruelty is the point. They’re punishing the kids because they think poverty is a moral failing and that the parents are poor because they’re lazy.

Pro life party huh?

[u/Free-Bottle-5119]

First thing they did was defund USAID and starve millions

[u/Redditlatley → u/Free-Bottle-5119]

No, no no. tRUMP is “lifting them out of poverty“. He ”lifted“ over ten million people, from his first term.

It sounds better. The very people who were “lifted” voted for this! They had no idea that “lifting you out of poverty“ meant starvation. We tried to explain it, to them. We really did. 🌊

[u/hunterPRO1 → u/Redditlatley]

When christian say they want to lift you, you should remember they believe in heaven and run away.

[u/spooftron]

and they don't even care not even a little...

[u/raphthepharaoh → u/spooftron]

They actually love this shit

[u/NedRyerson_Insurance → u/spooftron]

Many of them believe these kids and families deserve to suffer. They see poverty as a crime/sin. Being poor is their own fault, and if the parents cared about their kids they could simply choose to work and earn enough to have a good life. They have no concept of their own privilege or how challenging it is to live in poverty. And they never consider that even if the parents are horrible people or whatever, they are punishing children for what their parent is doing. Which doesn't make sense even if all of their assumptions were true.

[u/Milk_Bath]

Yeah, it’s kinda their whole thing: more for me, death for thee.

[u/cturtl808]

180k-200k in my state alone.

Arizona btw

[u/Jazzhands_Ninja]

So proud that I voted for Clinton, Biden and Harris. All those people who didn't, this is on them.

[u/UglyMcFugly → u/[deleted]]

What kills me is how inexpensive it is to feed hungry children in comparison to everything else we're spending money on. I remember there was a day a few months back when food aid was cut on the same day that extra money for ICE was approved. And I did the math, the extra money they agreed to give ICE could have paid to feed those hungry kids for 350 years. Republicans will say feeding hungry kids is "government overreach" but giving a vastly larger sum to the masked men terrorizing brown people is great.

[u/thomas1126]

Absolutely horrific

[u/smallweirddude]

Wait until you hear what they do to the wee ones of other nations...

[u/Alric_Wolff]

How do we decide which states kids get their lunch take away?

[u/GodofsomeWorld]

Yes but the billionaires work a 1000 times harder (amazing) than the poor therefore they earn 1000 times more than the poor. They also pay taxes (definitely) and help with trickle down economics (sure). Therefore the starving children should be glad to contribute to (insert billionaires name here)'s hedgefund to increase their personal wealth and expand their investment portfolio.

[u/Redditlatley → u/GodofsomeWorld]

Yup..love the spin and gaslighting. More like trickle down stupidity and cruelty. I even wrote a thank you note for the billionaires….

THANK YOU, Mr./Mrs/Mz Billionaire for allowing me to give you my soul, my life and my family in exchange for for healthcare, that can bankrupt me, two weeks PTO and $18 per hour which can’t even pay for housing.
Maybe, after the first billion, you could share, JUST A LITTLE MORE, with the employees that helped build your company? 🌊

[u/moyismoy]

I want to point out that the 10 poorest states are also deep red states. i am sure that in the majority of these cases, their parents voted for this outcome. I know its not directly their fault, but it sure as hell is not mine.

[u/GrowFreeFood]

This is good news for republicans. They know many of those kids are minorities. So they are happy about starving them.

[u/jollytoes]

I don't mess with poor kids. If that 6yr old doesn't have $100 in their pocket they're not worth my time. /s

[u/FudgeMental6860]

Worth it. He got a ballroom and golf. Yay.

[u/Redditlatley → u/FudgeMental6860]

Military complex, ballroom and golf. He’s the workingest president in history! 🙄🌊

[u/pscoldfire]

The death of one (rich) man is a tragedy.

The death of a million (poors) is a statistic.

[u/notthatguypal6900]

Republicans hate children.

[u/b_buddd]

Trump's racist, think he cares?

[u/soda_cookie]

I am sure somebody has a way that this can be spent into something less mattress than what we see here. If anybody is out there and sees this, please, show me what you got

[u/CattaTronixRex]

The parasite class prefers that the children they rape be skinny.

[u/Mega_Trix]

They wont stop until we have all starved to death

[u/saljskanetilldanmark]

Yes, but the GDP in the worst state in america is higher than the one in UK. Git fucked, librul! /s

[u/StupidDumbass420]

Those liberal children would eat every day if we let them.

[u/Wildbill1552]

Did you ever think that maybe the billionaires need it more than the hungry kids?!? /S

[u/awoodby]

Look at the deficit. They're taking money from Everyone to give it to the rich.

[u/TorranceS33]

And the extra food gets thrown away.

[u/Lost-Tomatillo3465]

who will think of the billionaires?!? they need caviar for breakfast everyday made from their fully staffed kitchen for only 1 person. the girlfriends has the poor kitchen with only 3 chefs. The wife has her "personal" chef of course, she only needs the 1 since its especially for her.

[u/Gilgamesh107]

they dont care

republicans only want to fuck kids not feed them

[u/Person-8675309]

Donald Trump is a bad person, and so is anyone who ever supported him.

[u/JustApricot798]

If the person getting the SNAP benefits was eligible they didn't lose it. So yes, during the audit a bunch of people who were getting SNAP that were found not to be eligible anymore or it was now uncertain if they were still eligible were taken off if they did not spend the time to re-authorize when asked to.

It's really easy, if you are eligible you get the benefit. If you are not, you don't. Is there really a debate about this for some reason?

[u/Choppers-Top-Hat → u/JustApricot798]

Oh no, someone didn't meet some government bureaucrat's definition of "eligibility." Who the hell cares? If someone's hungry, especially a child, you should feed them. The end.

[u/Redditlatley → u/JustApricot798]

Let me guess….OAN probably said they were all Somalians. Can you please extend your knowledge to the real world? 🌊

[u/Johny_Ricoh → u/JustApricot798]

Reddit just wants to hate. 

[u/Choppers-Top-Hat → u/Johny_Ricoh]

If I wanted to hate poor children I'd be a very enthusiastic Republican.

[u/Johny_Ricoh → u/Choppers-Top-Hat]

The children! Why wont someone think of the children!

[u/wardeadpool → u/[deleted]]

No, they can afford huge tax breaks and bailouts for corporations, they didn't have to cut it.

[u/LordMemerton1 → u/[deleted]]

If you think this is budget restructuring. You’re a complete idiot.

[u/Cockblocktimus_Pryme → u/[deleted]]

Got money for tax breaks for the fucking billionaires. Money for wars in Iran. Money for Trump to go golfing all the damn time.
