In 2013, House Republicans dropped funding for food stamps from the farm bill (which provides 80% of the program funding). 67% of Republicans approved the cuts.
In 2011, House Republicans proposed a plan to t***sform Medicaid into a block grant program administered by the states, which would limit cost and leave benefits up to individual states. Only 39% of Republicans opposed changes to Medicaid.
Republicans have a long history of attacking Medicaid and the Food Stamp program. Historically, Republican proposals would result in significant reduction in benefits.

No, I don't. I'm just pointing out that Repukes have a long history of attacks on Medicaid and food stamps.
You can carry the discussion further, if you feel so inclined.

I'll pass. You obviously didn't want to discuss otherwise you would have done so in reply to my question.

You could answer your own question. I don't need to play that game.

Already told you I did. Pay attention rather than coming back with knee jerk replies like this. When you lose you lose. Deal with it.
