The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Tough call, amirite?

Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, Mad King Donald has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Federal workers warned for months that the high-energy biscuits would go to waste and now nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food — enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week — are set to expire today and within weeks will be ash because, of course.

I guess Mike Johnson believes God saved Mad King Donald to have him torch food and let children starve to death.
