WATCH: Viral Video Of Republican Woman Freaking Out In Walmart Over Man Using Food Stamps

A new viral video is circulating on the internet of a hateful woman tearing down a man trying to purchase groceries for his child, who is present at the scene, with food stamps.

Those of us who follow politics hear it every day: the hate-filled GOP rant against those who need assistance to survive. Despite the fact that we know that working full-time at the federal minimum wage is far less than what a family needs to survive anywhere in the US, and despite the fact that more people who receive public assistance and can work are working now than ever before, the GOP needs someone to blame for their endless discontent.

They need to feel superior to someone, whether that’s undocumented immigrants, people of color, Muslims, or most commonly, poor people.

While shopping for groceries with his small child, one man got to fully experience that misplaced rage and anger, and another shopper caught it all on video. With the man’s child looking on, a woman in Wal-Mart took it upon herself to eviscerate the man for using a food stamp card to purchase groceries. Despite the man telling her that he has a job and works 50-60 hours a week, the woman continued her vile rant in hopes of…what? Shaming him? Convincing him to let his children go hungry to lower the woman’s taxes? Frightening his child?

Isn’t it ironic that GOP supporters claim to be the family values party, with all their concern about children? They certainly don’t seem to care if children starve as long as it saves them the $36 per year in tax dollars that the average taxpayer contributes toward the SNAP program, while more than half of all SNAP recipients are children. 82% of all SNAP recipients live in a household that includes a child, elderly person, or disabled person, but the GOP voters really don’t like to hear that. They want to believe all people who need some sort of public assistance to survive are just one of Paul Ryan’s “takers.” Darn those children and elderly people. Why don’t they just get a job, already?

While their views are hateful and misguided, to put those views on full display in public and in front of a child is outrageous, even for the GOP voters.
