1. La Instrumentalización de SNAP y la Crueldad Republicana (GOP).
La narrativa dominante en el archivo acusa a los Republicanos (GOP/Trump) de ser los responsables directos de la interrupción o amenaza de los beneficios SNAP, a pesar de la existencia de fondos de contingencia. Esta acción es vista como una táctica cruel para presionar a los Demócratas a ceder en temas como la atención médica (ACA).
- Republicans are refusing to use contingency funds to fund snap as had happened in previous shutdowns. They are willing to use hungry americans as leverage. Absolutely despicable.
- The trump administration is intentionally blocking the funds for snap. Do not believe their bullshit. The republican party are intentionally starving america because they want democrats to cave in and end medicaid and medicare.
- Snap has always continued through previous shutdowns. Stopping snap during this shutdown was a choice made by the current government. Once again, the gop claims to be saving you from a problem they themselves created.
- The gop is starving families to make a political point. Trumps admin is holding snap benefits hostage during their shutdown, punishing the most vulnerable while protecting billionaires and private jets. This is cruelty by design.
2. El Juego de la Culpa y la Defensa Demócrata.
Los Demócratas se posicionan como defensores de SNAP y ACA, acusando al GOP de causar el cierre. Sin embargo, también enfrentan críticas por supuestamente usar el sufrimiento de los beneficiarios de SNAP y los trabajadores federales como "palanca" política, o por ceder ante las demandas del GOP.
- The cause of the shutdown is the democrats wont vote to reopen the government. Thereby taking snap benefits with them.
- Democrats are literally letting their constituents starve by denying them snap benefits by keeping the government shutdown. I dont think democrats can complain about short term pain.
- Dems have voted 12 times to maintain health and snap benefits. The gop is quiet.
- If the democrats accept the republicans terms to open the govt, people lose healthcare. If they dont, people lose snap. Billionaires own our govt across the board.
3. Impacto y Consecuencias del Conflicto.
El conflicto tiene consecuencias directas y graves, especialmente la amenaza de que 40 a 42 millones de estadounidenses pierdan sus beneficios SNAP, coincidiendo con fechas sensibles como el 1 de noviembre y el Día de Acción de Gracias. La lucha también se centra en la protección de los subsidios de la Ley de Atención Médica Asequible (ACA).
- Over 40 million americans are about to lose snap benefits, and the gop doesnt care. They shut down the government to protect billionaire tax cuts while families go hungry.
- November 1st 41 million people in this country lose snap benefits. Republicans have voted 12 times to give people their snap benefits, it needs 60 votes and democrats are blocking it.
- Snap benefits and november 1st if the shutdown isnt over by then. So people have a choice between food or medical.
- The republican shutdown position at this point comes down to were delaying snap payments because we dont want to extend health care payments.
