👑 The same People who are yelling “NO KINGS!” and “Trump is a dictator!”are now shouting, “Why won’t Trump act like a king and fund SNAP himself!?”Let’s slow this down and talk like we’re all 10, because this is getting wild. 🍿🟢 First: The President Doesn’t Control the Money.Congress does. That’s literally their job. It’s in the Constitution.They hold “the power of the purse.”Think of it like this:The President is the head coach. 🧢But only the School Board (aka Congress) can approve the budget for snacks. 🍎Even if the coach really wants to feed the team he still needs the board to say YES.🟡 Second: SNAP (aka food stamps) needs funding from Congress.Yes, SNAP is a mandatory program…But the people who run it… like the USDA …still need funding to actually make it work.Right now, we’re in a government shutdown because Congress can’t agree on a budget.That includes the money that helps run SNAP.So what about “emergency funds”?Well…🔴 Third: Two courts gave different answers.• One court said, “Yep, you can use the emergency funds for now.”• Another court said, “Hold on, not so fast.”That’s why the government lawyers are still sorting it out..Because no one wants to break the law and make it worse.Meanwhile, Trump is following the rules.He legally can’t just override Congress and swipe the emergency credit card… You know.. Like a king would 😉🧠 So let’s go back to the beginning…You yelled “NO KINGS!”You said, “Presidents aren’t dictators!”You demanded that Trump stay in his lane and not do things without Congress..But now?You’re mad that he won’t act like the king you protested against?Make it make sense.🧭 Here’s the truth:• We have laws for a reason.• Trump can’t fund SNAP on his own.• Congress has to pass a funding bill.• The courts are still ruling on emergency spending.• And you can’t scream “dictator!” one day and “where’s my king?!” the next.This is what a constitutional republic looks like.It’s messy. It’s slow. But it works when people understand how it works.So no, Trump isn’t starving Americans.He’s respecting the law.That’s what leaders do.Now maybe it’s time Congress did their job too
