Ill say this clearly to every hard-working American, in any place whos missed a paycheck, anyone who has been made to suffer because the services, the health services you rely upon, or the food and nutrition supplement for your family. Anyone who is hurting: You have a home in the Republican Party.
You have people here who are elected by their constituents to come and do their job, and they do it. Theyre voting to support you, to make these programs available. To ensure that the people in need have them. And the Democrats, by stark contrast, are doing the exact opposite.

Most food stamp recipients were already "home"... voting for Republican bstrds who never gave a damn about them, except to the extent they could bamboozle em enough by selling HATE.
Newsflash, MAGA. They don't care about YOU EITHER. What a surprise!

I'm still confused as to why anyone who isn't a millionaire votes for that party .They don't advocate for anyone but the wealthy and eventually, the millionaires are going to figure out that they aren't rich enough to matter anymore.
