    Consider that this is likely hitting single black mothers, as it’s the low income energy assistance program that’s being affected.

    Maybe not a great comment hey?

      I don’t know, I’m reading about the Dominican community in PA that apparently went for trump because they interpreted ‘I’m going to deport 20 million illegals’ as a declaration that he was going to give them amnesty.

      We aren’t grappling with the real cause of our woes. An information environment that is worse than no information at all.

        concerns about Trump’s immigration policies were outweighed by perception of his economic prowess

        This is how you know you’re talking to an idiot.

        I’m not arguing we don’t have a communication problem. Or that we don’t have an education problem in this country.

        My point stands, the poverty rate for black households in Alabama is 150% greater than the white poverty rates.

        Clawing back LIHEAP funding and other social services are going to hit vulnerable populations first.

        Yes, some Trump voters are likely to be hurt by this. But far more single black mothers will statistically be affected.

        So comments like yeah if they could read, show the commenter did not read the room. Or maybe they did, and we as a community are so happy to watch leopards eat people’s faces, we’re forgetting about who this is most likely hurting the most.
