"... Donald Trump and other Republicans in congress genuinely believe that most poor people in this country live in urban areas, aren't white and vote democratic, when in reality two thirds of those states that are most dependent on SNAP are red states. There are states that happen to have large rural areas, rural counties, by the way, that tended to vote by 2 to 1 margin for Donald Trump.
"So, you know, their malice toward poor people in this country is awful, but it's also ill informed because they're hurting a lot of poor folks who are both Democrats, Republicans as well as independents and nonvoters. We have to stop looking at them based on partisanship and recognize these are our fellow Americans who are hurting, and they are being hurt by Donald Trump and the Republican majority." -- Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA) today on "Alex Witt Reports," MSNBC. The Malignant Fascist and his rotted-out cult exists only to inflict pain on those Americans about whom they have manufactured "grievances" against. It's a movement and a party full of sociopaths.
