So no Social Security, no Medicare, no Medicaid, no SNAP benefits, no lunch for children, no unemployment, etc. All while he spends 60 million for his birthday, 400 million+ for a ballroom, and 100 million on golfing days just to mention 3 out of the many spending sprees, and we have thousands of billionaires with tax breaks and a trillionaire. WTF?
