Who will win? Trump’s Illegal Push for ZERO Food Stamps: Dems fought for $6B lifeline

[HikerGuy83]

This guy just flip flopped. After saying judges can’t tell the executive what to do, he switched it to “the judges that I like can tell the President what to do “.

Make stuff up much? (don't answer....it's rhetorical....yeah....look it up)

Many other countries that are much less wealthy than the US have implemented healthcare systems where all citizens receive at least a standard state of care without fear of going bankrupt.

Long lines, rationing, old equipment and old drugs.

Funded by high taxes. Nice!

What are your godlike republicans replacing ACA with?

Replacing the unaffordable care act with something?

What are they replacing Medicaid with

Are they ending Medicaid? Link?

Long lines, rationing, old equipment and old drugs.

Propaganda. Many European countries have high quality healthcare that is either free or very low cost at the point of use. Yes, higher taxes, but you don't have to worry about if you have a problem. Imagine, if you have some condition, not having to worry about the financial side? What if your health condition means that you end up ultimately losing your job?? Do you get to keep the insurance you had from the job you no longer have? And long term? What if you work for a living, and then when you retire, what happens? Do you get to keep the health insurance you had through your job when you're retired and more likely to need it?

Funded by high taxes. Nice!

It's built in to the cost of living. Only now, you aren't getting taken advantage as much.

Replacing the unaffordable care act with something?

So they don't want to expand it, and they haven't said anything about replacing it.
Democrats are saying they don't want to pass it because of this disagreement about health insurance premiums. If they didn't, then insurance premiums are going to go up by a lot for people of all political affiliations.

Are they ending Medicaid? Link?

They aren't ending it, but it's again, an attack on healthcare for the average American (including republican voters...).

One Big Beautiful Bill Act: Winners and Losers in the Medicaid Provisions

Federal legislation almost always creates winners and losers. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, now before the Senate, is no exception. Overall, the OBBBA as passed by the House will redistribute resources from the poorest children and families (the losers) to the wealthiest (the winners)...

Remember, Trump said he would not cut Medicaid when he ran for president:


Again, I agree that Democrats should just give republicans what they want. Why do you think Democrats are trying to ensure that the American people's insurance premiums don't go up?

They've convinced you that the only people benefitting from these things are deplorables. I say, let Republicans get what they voted for.

Trump’s crew is fighting in court to gut food stamps to ZERO amid the shutdown for November, ignoring billions in contingency cash owed to 42M Americans. They lie it’s “only for disasters” bullshit, as the law says no such thing. This illegal stunt will flop hard in court.

Judges might force about 60% payouts…covers Nov.

Judges order Trump administration to use emergency reserves for SNAP payments during the shutdown

Two federal judge have ruled that the Trump administration must continue to fund the SNAP food aid program using emergency reserve funds during the government shutdown.

How is “Trump’s crew” trying to zero out the food stamp program? If senate Democrats voted to pass the same CR they supported just a few months ago the program would be fully funded again.

 

[tahuyaman]

All the Republicans have to do is give the Democratsa a CR they like and the shut down will be over

This same CR passed just a few months ago. I guess you forgot about that. Of course you forgot because you're a hack.

 

[MagicMike]

No. My suggestion is they get a job. Or they move to a country where the Government does pay for all those social safety nets legitimately. Their last option is simply to starve to death.

Ok, got it.
I expect you to appear immediately on the floor of The New York Stock Exchange in full protest gear...maybe some costume with celophane and jello and day-glo track shoes...and protest like hell about those greedy motherfuckers sending all those good paying jobs overseas!
It's all on you bro. Bring those jobs back Dude!

Left-wing violence and mass murder is bad.

Whataboutism.
Cute.

How did the NAZI NAZI NAZI platform work out for your Cult in November, MulletheadMike?

The Nazis got elected.

Shows how much Trump cares about people. He barely cares about his own family.

 

[Lesh]

Snap is a very small part of the equation. Research the issue please!

SNAP is a “small part of the equation”?

Maybe to Trump hosting a Great Gatsby style party on the White House

Bit to all those folks ( many Republicans) who depend on those benefits , it’s a lot more than that

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

That ruling is unconstitutional and will not survive any appeal and may only last a day at most.

How could it survive only one day if an appeal will take days or weeks?

LOL. Somehow I doubt they’d listen to a man who doesn’t have a single cent in the stock market.

Besides, why would I expect a company to pay more money for less competent workers? I would live to see those jobs come back here. Under the Authoritarian government I prefer they wouldn’t have been allowed to send them overseas to begin with. Unfortunately we can’t force them to bring those jobs home. Vote Authoritarian and we can make a difference.

It's true, they have a higher cost of living and healthcare rationing.

Remember, Trump said he would not cut Medicaid when he ran for president:

Is eliminating people who don't qualify a cut?

For those who think only Blacks receive SNAP (from a google AI overview:

Approximately
26% of SNAP recipients are Black, making them the second-largest racial group after White recipients, according to recent USDA data. This figure represents about one-quarter of all SNAP participants.

• Percentage: About 26% of SNAP recipients are Black.
• Comparison to other groups: White recipients make up the largest group at about 37%, followed by Black recipients at approximately 26%, then Hispanic individuals at about 16%.

Nobody thinks only blacks get food stamps, but your data is misleading since most people in the country are white.

What your data show is that blacks are twice as likely as their numbers would indicate to be on food stamps, and whites half as likely.

Also from a google AI overview:

Yes, both Amazon and Walmart workers receive SNAP benefits
, as many employees rely on public assistance programs due to low wages or other household factors. Studies and reports have found thousands of employees from both companies are on SNAP, with Amazon and Walmart frequently appearing as top employers of SNAP recipients.

• Amazon: Thousands of Amazon employees receive SNAP, and a 2023 national survey found that 23% of Amazon workers relied on SNAP to meet basic needs.
• Walmart: Walmart has also been identified as a top employer of SNAP recipients. A 2020 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report found that Walmart employed an estimated 14,500 workers who received food stamps in nine states included in the analysis.
• Reasons for reliance: The reliance on public assistance is often linked to low wages and the gap between what the wage provides and the cost of living, even for employees of large corporations. Other factors like household size, dependency status, and cost of living can also determine eligibility for SNAP.
