Trump cuts leave rural West Virginia community facing hunger
Original: Starve the poor- embolden the # Oligarchy - # Trump fails # again "Hunger grips a rural community hit by Trump’s cuts Th
Hunger is tightening its grip on a rural community in West Virginia's coal country, where food banks and volunteers say they are confronting unprecedented challenges following cuts made under the Trump administration. Those on the front lines of feeding their neighbours blame Washington for the crisis, and critics are framing the situation as evidence of policies that punish the poor while favouring the wealthy.
Why now: Trump's budget and aid cuts are being blamed for worsening hunger in poor rural communities, fuelling political anger online.
