    Since you can't seem to find any facts on your own, here's an exact breakdown of the size of individual contributions Sanders has taken in as listed by the FTC

    I'll even make it easy for you... BTW, Sanders has by far the most small contributors of any presidential candidate

    Do you think illegal aliens are entitled to Medicaid?

    Let's base things on facts, shall we...

    In general, undocumented immigrants are ineligible for many federally funded public benefits, but they can access certain programs deemed necessary to protect life or safety, such as emergency Medicaid and WIC. California has expanded benefits to include undocumented individuals in specific categories, and states can choose to offer benefits paid with state or local funds.
    Here's a more detailed breakdown:
    Federal Benefits:
    Ineligible for most federal benefits:
    Undocumented immigrants are generally ineligible for benefits like SNAP (food stamps), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
    Exceptions for emergency and safety:
    They can access emergency Medicaid, primary and preventive health care at Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and WIC.
    School meals:
    Children, regardless of immigration status, can participate in school breakfast and lunch programs.
    Short-term emergency assistance:
    Short-term noncash emergency disaster assistance and in-kind services necessary to protect life or safety are also available.
    State Benefits:
    California's expansion of Medi-Cal:
    California has expanded full-scope Medi-Cal coverage to undocumented adults aged 19-25 and over 50.
    State-funded benefits:
    States have the authority to make unauthorized noncitizens eligible for benefits paid with state or local funds, like California's Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants (CAPI), which provides monthly cash benefits.
    Other state benefits:
    Some states offer financial aid opportunities to undocumented students, low-cost health insurance for certain undocumented individuals, and comprehensive health insurance to children under 18 if their family meets income requirements.
    Important Considerations:
    Five-year bar:
    For many federal benefits, a "five-year bar" requires individuals to have maintained lawful permanent residence (LPR) for five years before being eligible.
    Social Security and Medicare:
    Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for Social Security retirement benefits or Medicare.
    Taxes:
    Undocumented immigrants pay taxes, including payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare, but they are not eligible for these benefits.
    Seems most 'benefits' are either humanitarian aid (yes, I believe in treating people as human beings worthy of care and even...*gasp* respect) and/or trying to give these people a chance at the American Dream.

    K-12 education for children and free school lunches. California, which gives far more to the Federal government than it receives back due to its very large economy, chooses to (*ahem* state's rights) provide more aid than other states.

    We're talking about (mostly) Mexicans here, who have a reputation for working VERY hard in physically demanding jobs like manual labor in agriculture, restaurants, and cleaning. They also pay taxes...

    Yes, treat people like humans.

    Y'know, here's what it comes down to:

    Trump won (because he got the majority of votes, you see), and you have to live with that.

    I voted for him to correct the problems the Biden administration created, by whatever means necessary.

    However you and Idol choose to view events is totally beside the point.

    Also - FWIW - I don't see any government aid forthcoming for TDS.

    I'm gonna try this, one time:

    We are living in a world that has become literally untenable because it's extra-ideological circumstance has compromised previously accepted political loyalties - the lines that previously divided us are being breached regularly

    You cannot but agree.

    It's no longer Republican/Democrat, Right/Left, Conservative/Liberal - what is is, rather, is POSSIBLE/IMPOSSIBLE.



    ​Deal with it.

    Every single thing you have said has been proven to be lies/propaganda and still you hold strongly to those lies with every fiber of your being

    Because Reddit says so?

    I'm totally okay with that.
