Nobody is immune from facing Trump's wrath, not even the kids and their lunches.
"You have to stop and think, Why don't you want our kids to have good food @ school? What is wrong with you, and why is that a partisan issue? Why would that be political?" That was the question forever 1st lady Michelle Obama was seeking the answer to yesterday, while speaking @ the annual summit of the Partnership for a Healthier America, a nonprofit organization that works with public and private sectors to help end childhood obesity. "Moms, think about this, I don't care what state you live in. Take me out of the equation, like me, don't like me, but think about why someone is ok with your kids eating crap." What brought all of this on, you might be asking? Well, with all the craziness from the last couple of weeks, certain pieces of news get lost in the chaos and/or Trump purposefully hides when he makes certain decisions because he already knows how people are going to react. Last week, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue signed a proclamation relaxing standards for the upcoming school year in 3 areas, whole grains, milk, and salt.
After speaking @ the summit, forever 1st Lady Michelle, brought the point of her speech home via Twitter. "No one should play politics with our kids' health. We owe them." Brief thoughts: Trump is horrible person, who only cares about himself and his family. He clearly could give a shit about the children in this country since he's taking away healthcare that could help them fight through illness and ailments they're fighting through, and now he's reducing the quality of the meals they eat @ school. In some cases, these school lunches and breakfasts are the only meals these kids have throughout the day, and instead of making them as healthy as humanly possible, here comes Trump and Sonny Perdue pumping them with more salt and substitutes. I'm well aware health food is expensive, I'm an adult that pays her own bills and purchases her own food, I see the prices in the grocery stores, however in terms of these kids instead of granting exemptions for schools facing hardships, why aren't programs being introduced to ease these hardships while still making sure kids eat a well balanced nutritious meal? Hell, why aren't programs being introduced so that all Americans can eat well balance nutritious meals without it costing an arm and a leg? This doesn't surprise me in the least because Trump is a disgusting individual and how sad I got doing this post doesn't surprise me either, can Michelle Obama please run for president?? It was sooooo refreshing to do a post about an intelligent woman who genuinely cares about the well being of others, regardless of if they like her or not.
