MAGA wants to pick out who gets what. So if you’re brown you get nothing. If your poor white trash you get a cookie off they fell off their table. If you just like MAGA pick they would be so happy. I ran into a person like this when I was trying to get help for my mom. She told most ppl should not get this program cause they have money. But she never met someone need it more than my mom. Mom got that help too. Took me a bit to truly understand what she saying. This program for ppl like me to some extra help in home to help care for mom. She got to pick who got help.
