One of my best friends is fresh out of an abusive relationship (and a shelter) with 2 kids...no SNAP

I got several family members on disability and SSI who I caretake for...these are the people nikkas are on here cheering on the loss of their benefits sounding like peckerwoods with the whole 'bootstrap' routine.
Most people who accept snap are elderly, kids and disabled people

Not sure if yall are up on the New York Times -The Daily podcasts, but they do excellent, short podcasts that examine events from the previous day. They had one this morning about the effects of this SNAP issue on West Virginians. These ‘billies are hurting. And GOOD! Fuk this inbred trash. One billy on the podcast had the nerve to say “ the democrats started this shutdown and are rich and can afford to eat and we are suffering. That ain’t fare(sic).” Meanwhile yo daddy is lapping it up at golf outings and parties. Fuk. Them.

Poor job of him and his team reading the room

Why would anyone care about who is right/wrong

Just give the people their money back

Nah, his team is doing a good job media wise (it's the one thing they're competent at).

As long as he convinces his supporters that it's because of Democrats and the "Radical Left" they'll never see Trump as at a fault no matter how bad things get for them. There's no reason for him to care what non Trump supporters think.

Pretty much this. His supporters eat, breathe, and sleep fox news and his tweets. They dont listened to anything else. Look how quick they shut up about the epstien files. He knows his supporters can be manipulated easily. One of the benefits of dumb people.

Trump finally admitted that he is trying to starve people

Unfortunately, it seems that Democrats may need to compromise at this point. The reality is that the Republicans and Trump don't care about looking like the bad guys; rather, they embrace it. Image-wise while it looks good for the Dems to stand firm in showing for the sake of their base, the truth is that there's nothing they can do to prevent the ACA increases, cuts, etc.

Either way, Trump and the GOP are going to get their way by either making the Dems submit or ultimately using the filibuster, it's an L either way. With that realization, I think the Democrats should make the hard choice, as bad as they don't want to, it'll be disappointing but they're the only ones who can end this shutdown and save the livihood of not only SNAP recipients but federal workers, and others suffering from the shutdown, 'cause Trump and his people don't care, they'll let this continue for months without a care in the world.

At this Trump is playing with people's livelihoods.

I don't think they compromise. All he has to do is pass the damn health care subsidies. If it was anything else I think the democrats compromise but on this I think the republicans blink. The math on this has been from the start that republicans blink. Trump I leading them over a cliff.

Not all of his supporters are complete morons. R
The fact that Trump is saying to Republicans “get rid of the filibuster” and they are saying no, tells you they know they are fukked up on this.
