Just as being a poor republican makes little sense, I cannot vote for Hillary.

177. Thus proving the point, although not the one you think you are making

Yes, the President signed legislation that cut $8.7 billion from food stamps over a ten year period.

You apparently see that as no different from what would have happened if the repubs occupied the White House. In fact, however, the 8.7 billion cut was a vast improvement over what the repubs proposed (and would have gotten with a repub president): $40 billion in cuts.

Does it suck that the program was cut? Absolutely. Would have sucked more if it had been cut by $40 billion instead of $8.7 billion. Unquestionably.

I get that for those whose benefits were lost or reduced under the cuts signed into law, its a very bad outcome. But for the even larger number of people who would have lost benefits (4 million in just the first year), it was a good outcome.

I prefer the bad but better outcome to the bad but worse outcome.

You see no difference.
