Fantasy vs Fact:
"This Republican ad calling out welfare leeches uses a young white male named 'Brad' as the villain. Meanwhile, back in reality, women are significantly more likely to be on welfare than men. And black people are astronomically more likely to be on welfare than white people. So the number of single young white male 'Brads' abusing the welfare system is minuscule," posted Matt Walsh. "Practically non-existent. But of course
Republicans don't have the balls to do this ad with 'Shaniqua' as the villain. Even though that would actually be an accurate portrayal of the problem at hand."

Failed far-right Florida gubernatorial candidate James Fishback also disliked the ad and threw in some misogyny with his racism.

"White men named Brad don't typically commit welfare fraud," Fishback wrote. "T'd recommend you start with the baby-momma with a BMW who just got back from her
Carnival Cruise."Despite MAGA's outrage, statistically in Arkansas, between 52 and 54 percent of food stamps, or SNAP, recipients in the state are white, as are 57.8 percent of those on Medicaid. But Sanders's program won't solve any probiems, as adding work requirements doesn't reduce poverty, and in some cases, makes people poorer. Regarding programs like health care assistance, most recipients are already working.

And, as one commentator pointed out, Sanders has only ever held political jobs thanks to her father, former Arkansas Governor and current U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, and has never had to apply for a real job herself.
