Non-Hispanic White people accounted for 44.2% of adult SNAP recipients and 24.8% of child recipients in 2023. Nearly 27% of adult recipients and almost a third of child recipients (32.3%) were Black. Hispanics, who can be of any race, accounted for 24.2% of adult recipients and 40.7% of child
Grok:
White (including some overlap with Hispanic): ~35-37% (non-Hispanic White often cited around 35-37%). U.S. population: ~75% White alone (including Hispanic Whites); non-Hispanic White ~58-61%.
Hispanic/Latino (any race): ~16-30% (varies by source/reporting; often ~15-30%, with higher among children at ~41%). U.S. population: ~20%. → Roughly proportional or slightly overrepresented in some breakdowns.
Asian: ~3-4%. U.S. population: ~6-7%. → Underrepresented.
Native American/Alaska Native: ~1-2%. U.S. population: ~1.4%.
In summary, White individuals form the largest single group of SNAP recipients (though lower share relative to population size), followed by Black individuals (disproportionately higher share). Overrepresentation of Black participants and children in Hispanic households reflects higher poverty rates in those groups.
Saying that a plurality of welfare recipients are white REALLY doesn't make the point libs think it does
this is when you boys go psychotic.
who is denying that black people receive welfare out of proportion to their population? Who says that? What prominent dem? Who is saying that and why do you think it's a gotcha when you say the obvious?
it's the same in many things. You make a straw man claim and then hold it against the Dems.
so. Gary. How does it feel to be told during the campaign over and over again that there would be no more foreign wars, and then in the first year have two voluntary wars and intended regime changes?
you are free to follow MTG's lead and agree trump and vance lied to you.
Trump also said peace through strength. He exercised the strength today to strengthen the peace.

He doesn’t know what majority means - forgive him. Poorly educated.
I didn't realize Princeton was a bad school. Of course, coming from a common lower-middle class person, I wouldn't expect for you to know anything outside of what a community college is.

Why don't you move out of the country since you hate it so much? Go live in a beta country. You lie, whine, moan, spread lies 24/7. You're a sad person without a family. Why sit on here non stop and do this? Do you ever go outside? What's wrong with you to make you do this all the time? It's such a bizarre platform to be wasting your remaining days on. Help us help you.
Calm down and accept you’ve been lied to.
You're totally right. I'll be a beta and vote for AOC/ Harris in 28. I'm sure that'll be a real enlightening situation for us all. Creep.
trump was partying as he sends Americans into battle.
no other president ever would have done that. Decrepit, amoral sea slug.
BREAKING: A leaked video is going viral showing Donald Trump partying with his wealthy friends at Mar-a-Lago before dropping bombs and starting an illegal war in Iran.

I didn’t realize it either until I learned that their alum don’t know what a majority is.

I have seen many people on X claim that Republicans are "voting against their own interests" (whatever that means) by voting for politicians who want to reduce the welfare state. I haven't been able to find the average Republican vs average Democrat income, but Republicans likely are on welfare less and a majority of welfare recipients likely are Democrats. I will always call that out
Pew:
About six-in-ten voters with lower family incomes (58%) associate with the Democratic Party, compared with 36% who affiliate with the Republican Party.
Among upper-income voters – those on the other end of the income spectrum – 53% are Democrats or Democratic leaners, while 46% are Republicans or GOP leaners.
But Republicans have a modest edge among upper-middle-income voters. Voters in the lower-middle tier and those squarely in the middle of the income distribution are roughly evenly split in their partisan orientation.
and Forbes:
Experts agree that Democratic-backed social safety net programs are likely the main reason for support from people with smaller paychecks.
“Lower-income voters tend to feel more seen by Democrats than by Republicans,” says Patricia Crouse, adjunct professor of political science at the University of New Haven’s Department of Human Sciences.
“Many individuals in lower income brackets perceive Republicans as favoring the wealthiest 1% and large corporations rather than implementing policies that provide direct assistance to them,” Crouse adds. “Consequently, they believe Democratic policies are more likely to address their needs and challenges.”
For example, Democrats generally oppose funding cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). They view SNAP as a crucial safety net for low-income families and believe that reducing its funding would harm vulnerable populations.
In contrast, Republicans often support funding cuts to SNAP, arguing that the program needs reforms to reduce government spending and promote self-sufficiency among recipients.
do you agree that he lied to you about no more foreign regime change wars?
Trumpers do not use the word lie when referring to Trump.
Its hyperbole!
Trump had 30,000 instances of hyperbole during his first term.
If Trump says "we are the hottest country ever..." do you take him literally? Of course not. A lot of what he says is aspirational or grandiose. That's who he is. Democrats take Trump literally, while Republicans take him seriously.

this is an age-old battle. Conservatives think people should bootstrap themselves and should not have much of a government safety net.
for that reason, conservatives fought against Social Security, medicare, medicaid, FDIC insurance, etc. These are all things we like having now. But conservatives said they were bad for the spirit of the country. More people thought they were good, so they became law.
We have a military budget of 1.5 Trillion but we have a situation room where we launch wars that is hidden with a curtain between the bus boy station and the pro shop at a moldy wedding hall.

this is too old an argument to have here.
SS, Medicare, and the FDIC are all good. I think Medicaid should have work requirements but I see why it exists.
That being said, things like the CFPB (Elizabeth Warren's brainchild) have had WAY too much power. Under Biden especially, they were all hostile to freedom and innovation. Go look at what he tried to do with crypto

on a serious note, it's incredibly secure, especially when Trump is there. No point in going back to the White House when he can launch it from the Winter White House.
