First, the federal government getting its economic data from DoorDash is a bit alarming.
Second, people who use DoorDash pay an average of $63 for a meal from McDonald's. Sort of an odd place to look to gauge sensitivity to the cost of food.

Is there any money left in SNAP, or did Trump already spend it all and that's why he's fighting so hard to not have to pay it out?

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

today's free social media advice for sitting legislators: you gotta stop logging on to say "this is unacceptable" unless you are prepared with a CALL TO ACTION or to tell us what YOU are CURRENTLY doing about it. saying "this is bad" but louder helps nobody.
Giving an unelected billionaire unfettered access to personal taxpayer data—including Social Security numbers and bank account information—is unacceptable and a complete breach of privacy for hundreds of millions of Americans.

Immaturity. That's the underlying theme with Trump, Elon, and their supporters. They're all overgrown toddlers demanding they get their way. None of them are real adults - and that's why they can't be reasoned with. Once you realize this, you'll understand why they're causing chaos.
