Has it occurred to anyone else that if NBC just offered *45 his own re-boot of the apprentice a lot of this could have been averted?

I really wonder how much that will matter if Democrats aren't doing a full-throated "GOP/Trump did this to you campaign!" and aren't taking this moment as an opportunity to connect constituents to food source solutions. It may be happening, but I haven't seen much of it.

I'm not sure a lot of GOP politicians understand how many of their constituents are on SNAP. But they're about to.

Interviewer: “How long is this sustainable?”

Food Bank Director: “Wow, um, it’s not—it won’t be from the first day. For every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9… It’s not sustainable for food banks to fill this gap. We were not built to do this.“

This is absolutely tragic.

Reading about this luxury apartment building that's falling apart after only ten years because the developer wanted a pure white building, a color only achieved by weakening the concrete. LOL what a fucking living metaphor.
432 Park Is Cracking Up
Developers wanted the supertall’s cement façade to be a pristine white. Turns out that’s not great for durability.
