Trump tells federal workers to borrow groceries as second missed pay day looms

President Donald Trump suggested Thursday that the 800,000 federal workers who are facing a second missed paycheck at the end of this week should essentially borrow groceries to get through what has become the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.

“Local people know who they are, when they go for groceries and everything else,” Trump said of federal workers during a meeting on trade at the White House. “And I think… that they will work along. I know banks are working along.”

“And that’s what happens in times like this,” Trump continued. “They know the people, they’ve been dealing with them for years, and they work along.”

Trump’s apparent suggestion that local grocery stores will let furloughed federal workers take food on an IOU was offered as an explanation for comments made Thursday by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, who questioned why federal workers who aren’t getting paid would need to turn to food banks for help. Ross, himself a millionaire, said workers should simply take out emergency loans to cover their living expenses.

Your story is from a year ago. This is from last week...

It ended on a high note, as the president signed off on 12 weeks of paid leave for new parents, a generous raise and a midweek vacation day before Christmas against the recommendation of his own staff — and as he issued an exuberant letter of thanks to “Our Incredible Federal Workforce.”

“I think it’s overall creating a positive buzz in my office,” John Milan Sebik, a claims specialist for the Social Security Administration in Jersey City, said of his co-workers’ reaction to the year-end surprises. “They’re happy. They’re actually shocked.”

My bigger point is that all of them are assholes, power hungry and at times off-point. All of them. Fuck them all.

I'm telling you. It's like they want Trump to win.
They enjoy having a boogeyman in there they can scream at.
At this point it's really the only logical way to look at this... if Biden gets the nomination Trump will make a commercial with Biden saying this and It'll kill him politically

It's truly astonishing out of touch these people are with the middle and lower class.

Tulsi is their only shot. Instead they're going to select from a group of Hillary 2.0's.
Haven't paid any attention lately. I didn't think Tulsi had a chance within the Dem party? I watched one of the earlier debates and she appeared to be the only one up there with a brain.
