Reality check: Trump pledged to end the program in 2016.

Called it. When push comes to shove, Trump is always going to side with the ultra-rich.

      Its actually very worrying.

      He’s already killed a budget bill and defied a MAGA bread and butter policy issue, for his obvious benefit, back-to-back with zero real pushback. His bounds seem basically unlimited.

        Defied MAGA bread and butter

        Lol, he’s done with MAGA. He got his term, he has no further use for his supporters or their agenda. Discard them like toilet paper.

        Trump was always going to side with moneyed interests. Though he is certainly racist, he doesn’t care about his supporters or what they want. His in-group is crass wealth.
