Cutting funding to provide housing for the homeless, criminalizing homelessness, and making it easier to kill homeless people is . . . a pretty stark articulation of your priorities.

One of trump’s big plans is to round up homeless people and put them in camps. This is exactly what they want
This is awful (what does adding camping to “stand your ground” even mean? If you see someone camping on public property it’s an affirmative defense to kill them?) tho I hate the “lawmaker introduces” framing device How many cosponsors? Does it have any party support? Committee actions scheduled?

Just like Jesus would want.
