I don't mean 1776 American Revolution, or a Civil War. I mean a French type Revolution. His budget plan, his actions toward the poor, it is going to come to a breaking point. Just what shape will it be?

Call me naive but I really didn't think the GOP would touch Food Stamps. So many of their poor white voters rely on those.
Being poor, and deprived for the sake of hating brown folks is one thing. Homeless and starving is another.
