Daily reminder that Charlie Kirk argued AGAINST free school lunch for kids. The multimillionaire said no child is hungry. (files.catbox.moe)

Wow that whole 'we don't have a child starvation problem, we have a child obesity problem' as evidence it doesn't exist.... that's just evil genius levels for political soundbites.

Evil because they are two side of the same coin! And genius deflection because one has physical evidence we all see everyday. Americans are fat and the media publishes articles of how our kids are fat, not how they are hungry. And if you may see that hungry kid you won't know they are hungry if you don't know them.

Frankly his first reply "get a job" is his real truth though.
