    Hard to say. There is a dramatic increase in SNAP in 2019. Any ideas?

    Only one I can think of is perhaps that is when Trump set his plan of ending democracy in motion, causing a massive increase in food stamps.

    Awww… you’re just mad when someone points out your boy Trump had the worst SNAP record in history. You probably should have left with those other Trump lovers to the other board so you can have a safespace to pretend Trump was awesome at everything he did.

    Par for the course for you to cherry pick one state with weird results as an indicator for the entire economy. SNAP spending is down considerably from its pandemic peak.

    When Biden took office in January of 2021, SNAP spent 8.68 billion to serve 42.13 million people. July of 2024 is the most recent month we have data for. July of 2024, SNAP spent 8.07 billion to serve 42.08 million people.

    Dow up over 43,000 today.

    Didn't Trump say we would see a market crash "like we've never seen before" if he wasn't elected in 2020?

    Well, we are seeing market firsts, but they are record highs. Amazing people believe anything that moron says.
