Where do you people get this idea? I think many of you are literally blind to the people that live around you. Don’t you go into corner stores and watch people pay?

This information is available online. Here is Louisiana, Johnson’s state as an example:

Whom Does SNAP Reach?

In federal fiscal year 2024, it helped:

847,100 Louisiana residents, or 18% of the state population (1 in 5)

Yes and head start… because they’re Christian.

This. Done with the mooching. Keep it closed for a year, give them plenty of time to job hunt.

Yup. Let Elon and the Argentinians go bankrupt!

No. More. Federal. Handouts.

It’s probably an even split between the rural poor and urban poor.

Honestly, this might have to be the thing to do. Blue states will come in to rescue their people. Let the red state MAGAs learn some valuable lessons about the their voting history. Same with their insurance premiums.

The D’s can only try to save people from themselves for so long.

this. Dems should let Rs make cuts to their own ppl and put their heads together to fund those who want SNAP

There will be no sleep lost at the GOP.

I'm in a red area. Our rep consistently votes with Trump even though it causes more suffering to the 40% of his constituents who are low income.

No one call him out on it. He keeps winning. They KNOW they don't have to help anyone. There is no expectation.

This is the sad truth. The only way the govt will reopen is if the dems vote yes in the CR.

Republicans will ride this out to the bitter end.

If you think republicans are going to get blamed when democrats keep voting no on the CR, you’re living in an echo chamber.

The fact that democrats , no matter the reason, are the ones voting no is what lays the blame on them. Most people are not sophisticated with their viewpoints and many do not have time or energy to listen to Dems explain their decisions.

Hahahaha. You are in the bubble. All polls say otherwise. The ballroom building and bailing out Argentina have absolutely broken through to the low info people. They are not happy.

I’m surprised that you still find polls relevant despite how wrong they have been.

If, as you say, polls are irrelevant because they are wrong, how do you gauge support for Trump and his policies? What metric are YOU using? Or do you just consult yourself, as Trump does?

I never mentioned support for Trump. That’s is an assumption you made because I questioned your opinion on who is going to get the blame.


Most people are not patient nor sophisticated enough to fully understand why the Democrats keep voting no on reopening the govt.
These people are not the ones responding to the polls.
And the ones that do understand why the Dems are keeping the govt shut down don’t understand why a CR cannot be passed and then deal with ACA. Why should more people suffer?

Yes. And the republicans have been clear that we can’t “afford” a social safety net. So none of this is a surprise.

MAGA insisted that liberals have been too woke for worrying about this. So all the white rural Americans will have to learn who exactly in our republic is more dependent on federal government largesse.

Right. Only what comes out of Trump's mouth is the truth. Make sure you repeat that to yourself when you try to find a big enough cardboard box for your family

You once believed Hillary was going to win and you thought Kamala had a chance. because you trust polls.

Wasn’t SNAP a primary target of Project 2025?

Majority.
Not to mention medicaid.
They didn’t think it will affect them. Until it does.

Stupid is as stupid does.
