The President of Argentina is doing the Trump dance at Mar-a-Lago after getting a 40 billion dollar bailout but MAGA is mad at a single mom using SNAP to buy cupcakes for her kids.

This is obscene!!!

Trump throws another extravagant party at Mar-a-Lago while thousands, including government workers, line up at food banks during the shutdown— while he’s still fighting to block SNAP funding while kids go hungry.

Literally a tale of two Americas.

Dick Cheney dead at 84. he seemed like the Devil when in power. He now seems like a moderate.
It's a testament to how much the Republican Party has changed that Dick Cheney's final vote was for the Democrats.
