Whether the president is to blame for this issue or not relevant. It is just one more point of misery for American families during this administration. The party in power, fair or not, will get the blame for the state of affairs during its reign.

Right!

Yet, EVERYTHING BAD that happened in the world WAS Trump's fault!

What did babies drink before formula was invented? There is always colostrum milk and cow's milk.

How about those 17.5% tariffs Trump imposed in 2018?

In 2018 President Trump imposed a 17.5% tariff on imports of infant formula.

Even two years later Trump's handiwork is still affecting us.

He has signed the most EO of any President, 89 at last count. The first day in office he was cancelling every executive order written by Trump, at one point asked what he was signing.

Many things are out of his direct control, yet when he speaks, he is not only arrogant and bumbling, but states information that is totally wrong, blatantly lies and never accepts any responsibility.

An world leader, the US, has been reduced to a joke, all because hatred and obsession against a personality and mean tweets.

The illegals chose to break our laws. I have no sympathy for them, because of this. If they do not have enough food, then they should have thought about that before they made the trek up and broke our laws. Their food situation is none of our concern. The food supply of American children is our concern and of the most importance.
I can't rep you again, but I agree. While it may appear heartless for me to say I don't really care if illegals at our border have formula, I certainly care about US citizens more. We cannot provide everything for everyone who comes here any time and any way they choose. Our resources are not unlimited. The baby formula situation is just one example of that.

The takeaway here is don't mess with people's kids. Here is an absolutely shocking* opinion piece from CNN.

I'm very curious to see how polling plays out in the next couple weeks. If we're a month out from the Roe V. Wade leak and polls haven't moved significantly, the Democrats really are truly doomed in November. That would be glorious.









*Shocking in that it actually states the real reasons for extended closures in Blue states/cities.
