It’s not only disability benefits now. They will be losing SNAP benefits as well. I hope this wakes all of them up and shows them that he couldn’t care less about 98% of the population as they are not rich and famous. It’s all about me, me, me for him. I want your votes, then goodbye to them.

This is terrible, and even sadder if those impacted by this voted for the pedophile. Perhaps this is what it takes to help people understand that he has never cared and will never care about anyone else in this country. His only objective is power and greed.

THIS IS WHAT THEY WANTED TO HAPPEN TO EVERYONE BUT THEM. THEY VOTED FOR HUMAN SUFFERING FOR THEIR FELLOW AMERICANS AND NOW THEY ARE REAPING WHAT THEY HAVE SOWN. THEY NEED TO REPENT BEFORE WE CAN FEEL SORRY FOR THEM. THIS IS WHAT THEY VOTED FOR FOR US.

One of the biggest reasons we have so many disabled people in their 50's is b/c people who work in these low wage jobs also have low access to health care. Untreated middle aged medical problems lead to disabilities later. The UK found this out the hard way too. bsky.app/profile/lill...
