Donald Trump is defunding Head Start and exacerbating Wisconsin’s child care crisis before our very eyes — leaving parents with no option for child care. I will fight this with every fiber of my being. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

NEW: Trump has slashed Head Start resources in HALF â€” threatening to rip away child care from THOUSANDS of Wisconsin families. Kids kicked out of their classroom. Teachers out of a job. Child care will get even MORE expensive. We cannot accept this. t.co/H16GgJHbp9

I guess to be a true Trumpanista you must have your logic circuits completely disconnected. We want to on shore more manufacturing and want to use tariffs to incentivize that but we don't think maybe first getting all the US based infrastructure, tax incentives, etc, to make that work quickly done (or even called for at all yet) would maybe help that. Per eLoon, Vance, etc. we need to be making more babies right now because somehow we could depopulate very soon. But, lets cut or eliminate government programs that might incentivize parents, despite the costs and life complications that kids cost, to have some/more kids. Yeah, sure, all this makes sense and will work....never.
