Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross says he does not understand why federal furloughed employees need assistance from food banks

“I know they are, and I don’t really quite understand why,” Ross said when asked abt workers getting food from places like shelters rollcall.com/news/congress/…
Schumer re Wilbur Ross: "Those comments are appalling and reveal the administration's callous indifference towards the federal workers it is treating as pawns ... Sec Ross, they just can't call their stock broker and ask them to sell some of their shares."
Wilbur Ross still cant figure out why federal workers just don't dont take their grocery IDs to the bank and get a loan or call their stock brokers to liquidate some assets so they can hop on their private jets to the Mediterranean to wait out the shutdown.
Trump thinks that if you just tell the grocery store that your job isnt paying you they will just give you food.

Trump is an out of touch "billionaire" trying to make excuses for the out of touch comments of Wilbur Ross, an out of touch billionaire.
Trump about Wilbur Ross's comments:

"Local people know who they are, when they go for groceries and everything... They will work along. I know banks are working along... They know the people. They've been dealing with them for years. And they work along."
It's insane how much super rich people cant relate to the common experiences of Americans.
