Because of GOP tax reform, Americans are putting more money in their pockets. However, to MSNBC elitist Katy Tur, a thousand-dollar bonus is a joke. The leftist posted to Twitter Monday:
Gentleman at Ohio Trump event says he’s going to save to start a family with his 1,000 dollar one time bonus. Average cost to give birth to one child in Ohio is $5,836.

The Twitterverse — comprised of normal Americans — shot back at the biased snobbery of the media millionaire:
He's got some nerve keeping his money in hopes of bringing a child into the world. https://t.co/blWF9KDM2Z

Right. Furthermore, it’s his money that he’s getting back. He can do whatever he wants with it.
that's nice, he could buy $1,000 worth of ham if he wants, who cares https://t.co/A04N5Y05tJ

This may come as a surprise to Tur, but not everyone has the left-wing pundit’s net worth, which is estimated at between $8 and $23 million.
I had far less in savings when I had my first kid. Good for him. https://t.co/kHgk5ZpXYa

Normal people know the value of money:
That $5,836 represents the cost that insurance pays, meaning policy holder pays a fraction of that amount (depending on deductible). So $1,000 may actually go a long way to paying for live birth. Could also cover about 2 years of diapers. https://t.co/CRabKPJgeC

The pile-on justifiably continued:
Right?! Who are these uncultured peasants to say $1000 matters? https://t.co/ygsCgAbOzj

She didn't say she was going to buy a $1000 house she said it'll help go toward buying a house.
This snobbish dismissiveness from the media is why they get the hate they do https://t.co/pUsAtEHzI7

What part of "help" aren't you getting https://t.co/Gc54tAydjU

Tur apparently doesn’t understand the plight of average Americans.
This is some monumentally absurd, condescending analysis.
If you got $1,000 and chose to save it, it would absolutely help with a future purchase, starting a family, or college tuition for kids. It doesn’t PAY for it, and no one thinks it does. https://t.co/r4DX5l3ytf

One follower summed it up particularly nicely:
HOLY SHIT. You mean the unexpected cash infusion is only going to pay for about 20% of his bill? His happiness must be hard to understand from that Ivory White Tower of Hackery https://t.co/ZC4mB8FMgm

Katy Tur and so many in the left-wing media fail to understand the reality of the 2016 election, because they fail to understand America. And so long as they do, they will fail to defeat President Trump.
