Newt Gingrich: Trump is right -- we need welfare reform

[TalkRadio]

The Trump economy is strong. The stock market is at record highs and the unemployment rate is at a 17-year low. This is thanks largely to the Trump Administration’s aggressive regulatory reforms and the passage of historic tax cuts. Business after business is celebrating the passage of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act by announcing new investments, bonuses, and pay raises.

But despite soaring business confidence and a strong economy, businesses are scrambling to find workers to fill 6 million open jobs. And now, their primary challenge is to get people who have been sitting on the sidelines back to work.

President Trump knows our broken welfare system is a major barrier to achieving this goal, and he has vowed to tackle welfare reform next. And it’s a good thing, because welfare definitely is, as the President put it, “out of control.”

In 2000, over 17 million Americans received food stamps, officially known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. That number has swelled to more than 42 million today. As a result of Obama Administration’s policies, the number of Americans on food stamps is now greater than the population of Canada.

Wait a minute, you're actually listening to a guy like NEWT GINGRICH? Maybe that's the problem right there.

Tell us why?

 

[doowdniw]

Tell us why?

Because he's a hypocritical ass?

 

[Hypoxia]

Because he's a hypocritical ass?

He's also a devout Xian who qualifies under Leviticus 20:10.

I wonder: did Gingrich model his school on Tromp U, or vice-versa?

As is typical the thread immediately degenerated into personal attacks instead of seriously addressing the issue at hand. Perhaps that's because those particular posters have absolutely nothing of value to put forth for consideration.

Newt Gingrich is a moron just like Trump two peas in a pod. Trump hates poor people yet has poor people work for him in his hotels. No one rich should ever be the President as they don't understand the regular American. President Dickweed makes Bush come out smelling like a rose. I've never seen so many bad dissensions by a person that stole the Presidency. Trump is a fucking nut just like the VP. Trump is the very definition of narcissism. What so called "President" keeps having rallies after winning the Presidency? Go on Trump keep up those scandals as I would love to see the entire Trump family out of the White House. Of course then you would deal with VP no balls. The economy sucks ass thanks to Trump as everything is going up in price. Of course it is give these huge companies large tax cuts and yes everything will go through the roof.
