    Anyone donating to trump should be ineligible for social services. If they wanna piss their money away, I support that 100%, but don’t make me subsidize it.

      Careful on your thinking process, it seems like a ‘slippery slope’, as people say.

      Donating to any politicial campaign should not infringe on anyones rights.

      This would easly be used against the poiliticial party you stand by as well.

      Many examples where this kind of thinking just makes it much worse for the working class.

        If you’re donating money to and supporting the person/party trying to take away your own and other’s social services, you should forfeit eligibility to receive said services. I don’t see any slopes with this.

      Better solution: enforce public campaign funding and ban all private donations and funding/advertising for political campaigns.
