I find it hard to believe this is actually a popular idea among their base, along with cutting social security. But maybe I am naive. I know GOP voters like cruelty, but not when it affects them personally
That's the thing - they don't see it that way. Their voters think that it won't affect them because they're not abusing the system, but it'll be a good thing to give freeloaders the boot. Their cognitive dissonance doesn't let them realize that they are also part of the group that will be affected.
You see it am the time. They hold two contrary beliefs with no problem arguing for both.
And then when their kids or grandkids or whatever get denied free school lunch they'll blame Joe biden. It's a cycle.older than I am.
Their unwanted numerous children because they were only taught abstinence in sex education, and cant legally have an abortion so they're too poor to feed their kids kids.
Totally Joe's fault!
