More than 1.1 million Americans dropped off the food stamp rolls since President Trump took office in January 2017, according to the latest U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) statistics on food stamp enrollment.

I bet at the end of the day, these people are feeling great about themselves, proud and with purpose
This has nothing to do with Trump. During the recession they waived the 3 month in 3 year limit for SNAP benefits for non-disabled non-elderly adults without children. In 2016 they rescinded the waiver and the rules for that population known as ABAWD reverted to the old rules - they can only receive SNAP benefits for 3 months in 3 years. I don't know the actual number of people that were impacted, but in 2016 it was estimated that 1 million snap recipients would lose their eligibility. (no source because it's common knowledge and a 10 year old could google it and verify it if they wanted to)
Shhh, don't tell the Trump cultists. This is the same thing as telling them that job growth under Obama was greater the first 7 months of the last 4 years than it was under Trump's first 7 months. But since they never paid attention before (or simply chose not to believe it) they will go into denial or come up with some excuse why Trump is falling short of Obama's #'s.
And in a related story, 1.1 million people just starved to death in America !
Awwww, you dripped a drop of blood from your heart
