President Trump just said, “We lifted 2.4 million Americans off of food stamps.”
A reminder of what happened to those 2.4 million Americans:
"500 metric tons of high-energy food, intended for child refugees in Afghanistan and Pakistan under the age of five, were incinerated, as were ten million dollars of contraceptives"

Trump: "I can do anything I want to do to them ... I'm allowed to destroy the country."
