00:00:00.000 So question with SNAP, fair on what you're saying with SNAP.
00:00:02.920 I have two questions on SNAP.
00:00:04.160 One, are you for SNAP not being given to many of these illegal immigrants 0.84
00:00:13.460 and folks who are taking it at percentages higher
00:00:17.020 where that money needs to be going to Americans for people that need it
00:00:21.580 rather than for people that are coming to take advantage of the system?
00:00:24.320 Yeah, and honestly, that's the way the system is structured now, right?
00:00:28.600 Abuse is there, though.
00:00:30.000 Well, but then abuse, but abuse is one thing, right?
00:00:33.900 And abuse, if anyone is breaking the law, then of course you need to be accountable for being able to break the law.
00:00:40.220 But what we're talking about and the way the system is structured right now is that it's a joint responsibility between the federal government and our states to be able to provide supplemental nutrition for our kids.
00:00:50.780 And honestly, it's a better thing for all of us because, like, I don't want my kids going to school hungry.
00:00:55.840 I don't want my kids, you know, suffering from having now suffering from illnesses that are now going to cost more money for them to have to go to emergency rooms and deal with.
00:01:04.320 I don't the more people I can have being productive members of my community, the less money I have to spend on social services.
00:01:11.400 And so I actually think this is actually a good investment to be able to do these things.
00:01:15.440 And if the president is going to adjust it, my point is this, then have a conversation with the nation's governors who are your partners inside of this work.
00:01:24.080 But you cannot just unilaterally decide that you're going to adjust it and, again, violate the law to do it and then expect for us to just come up with it.
00:01:33.780 That's not the way a partnership is supposed to work.
00:01:36.900 Got it.
00:01:37.220 So you are against folks who abuse the system, but you're for the people that actually need it to take advantage of it.
00:01:45.080 Absolutely.
00:01:45.580 Okay.
00:01:46.260 Listen, I will debate with anyone who is saying that you need to be able to break the law in order to be humane.
00:01:53.320 No, no, you need to make sure you are both doing two things, right?
00:01:56.520 You got to make sure you are following the law.
00:01:58.680 You got to make sure you are following the Constitution.
00:02:01.200 And you can make sure that you're also being humane with the people in your jurisdictions.
00:02:05.540 And I don't think you have to choose between those two things.
00:02:08.720 When we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury, we had the choice to make it fast.
00:02:16.120 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:02:18.240 We chose neither.
00:02:19.900 Instead, we chose Tuscaneer.
00:02:22.260 We chose true Italian craftsmanship, each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:02:27.180 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail, and we chose the finest quality at every step.
00:02:35.100 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:02:38.840 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:02:43.160 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
