LET THEM EAT CAKE!
Trump’s Cruel Plan to Cut Food-Stamps to Pay for His Tax Cuts to Billionaires. (How to Steal from the Poor and Give to the Rich!)
Low-Income Trump Supporters Are About to Become Tired of ‘Winning’.
Many poor and impoverished people who voted for Donald Trump, did so because they thought their lives would improve. Some voted for him out of pure desperation. So, Mr. Empathy himself, Donald Trump, is now looking to cut the food-stamps program. AGAIN.
Isn’t that FUN?!?
In, fairness, Trump, and all the kindhearted members of the GOP, truly do feel that if poor people have less food they‘ll be too distracted by starvation to get upset when the GOP goes after Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Welfare, and all the other things put into place to keep poor families from becoming groups of corpses littering America.
That’s why Trump and his Pet Monsters in the GOP keep using the S-Word.
SOCIALISM!
(Cue Eerie Music)
Run! Socialism is coming to get you Trump supporters! Look out Fox News watchers, here comes spooky socialism dressed up like Freddy Krueger to eat you!
RUN!
Oh, by the way, when Trump and the GOP say “Socialism” — they ACTUALLY mean Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Welfare, and Food Stamps!
See, it’s all stuff people like — but if they label it “Socialism” and make the word sound ominous and scary and then add “Something, Something, DEMOCRATS!” to the end of their sentence, impoverished people who voted for Trump and the GOP won’t be perturbed that THEIR SOCIAL SERVICES GOT TAKEN AWAY TO GIVE THAT MONEY TO THE WORLD’S RICHEST BILLIONAIRES so that they can ship it out of the country to off-shore accounts as fast as humanly possible.
We used to have things like after-school programs for impoverished children. Those are gone so that we can give larger tax breaks to anyone who owns multiple golf courses, a shoe-horned clause in Trump & the Gop’s whimsical Reverse Robin Hood Tax Plan. It’s totally just a coincidence Trump happens to own many golf courses and personally made himself a profit of $1.2 BILLION DOLLARS. — So, goodbye to afterschool programs and goodbye to reimbursing a teacher who lays out money for supplies to impoverished children.
For fun, let’s first take a look at some of the advantages of the Trump / GOP ‘Bwa-Ha-HA’ Reverse-Robin-Hood Tax Plan.
- Happy Billionaires! You can never really have too many private jets and yachts… The Tax Plan that the Republican Party and Trump fought so hard for, does save Donald Trump and Betsy DeVos a LOT of money. YAY!
- It made the deficit swell like a giant blood-engorged tick. Now that the top 1% richest billionaires GOT A GIFT of 1/6 of the ENTIRE US ECONOMY, the US is operating at a huge loss. But, don’t worry. Trump and the GOP do ABSOLUTELY plan to make it all okay by cutting food stamps, healthcare, welfare, and other programs designed so we don’t see Americans starving and dying en masse in the streets.
- Liberals and Democrats don’t LIKE it. So, stick it to them! Liberals only want starving people to get food stamps just to stop poor people from biting everyone in order to avoid future zombie apocalypses! Why should VERY rich people have to pay for poor people’s food? Here below is how Trump and the GOP look when obscenely wealthy people have to pay into things like taxes that help keep poor people alive.
:(
See how unhappy they are in the above photo? All frowning and sad. Compare that to THIS:
Oh, isn’t that a FUN picture? They’re so happy it almost makes them seem like they were born on Earth despite many of them bearing no passing resemblance to earthlings! —That photo conveys the joy of taking money away from the poor and middle class. This photo was taken after 100% of Republicans voted for the Trump /GOP Bwa Ha HA Tax Bill and 0% Democrats voted for it. It had a whopping 17% approval rating when it was passed. (We call this “Taxation Without Representation”. It’s the same reason we had a Revolutionary War but with gassy and fussy King Trump subbing for King George III).
Then, Trump and the GOP had A GARDEN PARTY to CELEBRATE. No, really. They drank the kind of expensive champaign that us normal people will ever sample. Sip, sip, sip. And they LAUGHED!
I’m not even making any of that up. In fairness, Trump later that day addressed a room full of his wealthiest supporters. His exact words “I just made all of you A LOT RICHER”
Here’s a photo of that.
See that money they’re running to put into off-shore accounts?
That money USED to go to stupid low-income housing, and stupid school lunches for hungry, poor, children. Uncool! The billionaires of America didn’t WANT to pay a small portion of the taxes they actually should be paying just to help poor people obtain food, and Trump made that ferociously greedy dream a reality.
However, for many Trump supporters, starvation seems a small price to pay in exchange for normalized racism, anger, and hatred.
Sad.
