The $3 Trump meal! ENJOY! Sec. Rollins has run simulations 😳😂😃🥸 [View all]

Brooke Rollins: "We've run over 1,000 simulations. It can cost around $3 a meal for a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. So there is a way to do this that actually will save the average American consumer money."

It took 1,000 simulations to learn this? Ask anyone on food stamps. They can tell you everything you need to know about feeding a family on pennies.

So basically every meal is 200 calories, that’ll keep them hungry

"Our simulation says you shouldn't be hungry yet!"

Only one piece of broccoli?

Wait, I can have *two* sides now? Mind blown.

One doll. One pencil. One piece of broccoli. Enjoy, peasants
