$5,000 per child? 😳 The only people that will seem like a lot of money to is poor women. This at the same time as cutting funding for food stamps, food banks and school lunches, among other things. How much does childcare cost per year? Will healthcare and education be made more affordable for all the children that Trump hopes this idea will create? Will there be generous paid maternity/paternity leave for all?
