This might just convince more people that only Trump can save them, and the legislative branch only serves as an obstacle.
Feeding the poor in a very public way is a good way for authoritarians to build good will at very low cost.
Edit: I’m still all for continuing and expanding SNAP to be clear. No one should be hungry.
It should show that they had the funds all along and have to be forced to use them instead of using the threat of starvation as a cynical political lever. The truth is that MAGA Reps dont want the SNAP program funded, no matter what. They dont give a fuck about poor and hungry children, especially if they can try to pin the blame on Dems. They think poverty is a moral failing and the poor are just a tool to be used.
Poor people have kids that they can farm with impunity......

Yeah but that would take intelligence. Plus he wouldn’t want to risk accidentally helping anyone besides himself.
Yup. He's gonna continue saying the democrats is keeping the government shut, while he is feeding them. Pathetic people fall for this idiotic bullshit. Then again; republicans are traitors.
