the purpose of this isn't to convince people who struggle to afford food that they're actually fine it's to convince people who don't struggle to afford food that the people who do struggle are ungrateful idiots and whiners whose complaints they can ignore and still feel good about themselves
This was published in a newspaper owned by what is currently the third richest person in human history.

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.
They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

You don’t invite people to the Situation Room to try to bully them into removing their name from a discharge petition because you are innocent. Just saying.

I’m ashamed of Democrats today. I guess making people happy for Thanksgiving travel is more important than affordable healthcare.
