Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

So this is a response to the fictional Dems that the GOP ran against. The goal is targeting the imaginary GOP voters that will switch sides. Meanwhile, ignoring the millions that don't vote becuz their issues are ignored. So more of the same. Brilliant!

Treatment in the ER is NOT dependent on insurance or citizenship status, nor should it be.
Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"
