Regarding Melania Trump's taxpayer-funded trip to Mar-A-Lago during the government shutdown. And for the record he's not a Poe or being sarcastic:
Good for her. She worked hard over the holidays to make the White House look fantastic for the President. Hopefully she can get some much earned rest.
Regarding government employees going to food banks during the shutdown
Lowlifes. They live a lifetime on the public dole as their Statist government games the Public Treasury, leaving it with multi-trillions of dollars of debt that will never be repaid and that also rapidly devalues the currency we all get "paid" in, then they run to foodbanks set up for actual poor people and overwhelm them with their "need" because they never put away a nest egg while the money was coming in and they were busy living the expected American Lifestyle of nice houses, nice cars, good restaurants, and lots of entertainment, all the while trusting their criminal government to take care of their every want to the detriment of all the people not getting government money. Screw them to hell.
I'm sure their criminal government will set up 70% tax rates so they can get paid and go on with their partying and debt binge.
