Eventually the starved will become desperate and some will go to any length to feed their family... that's his hope

Then he can unleash. This is a big reason why he's trying so hard to battle snap benefits, and also continue the shutdown. He wants us to lash out, imo.

Just wait till the desperate fight back. He's getting more impatient every day. Epstein files are looming.

(Although it's probably the agenda of all the fascists and authoritarians around him.)

I think he's so out of touch with working class reality that he actually believes we're "wasting money" on things like SNAP, or that he could get a "better deal" on drugs, etc.

Narcissists like him lack curiosity and have no capacity for rational thinking. When WalMart says groceries are cheaper now - he reads it - believes it - and no one can tell him otherwise.

He's insane

The fascists in his inner circle. You're right, not a lot of brain power behind that pasty face of his.

That's the big question. I'm really hoping somebody will release those, "worse," Epstein files being talked about. Something that even rethuglicans will not be able to stomach.
