WASHINGTON — Hours after two court rulings to give up his threat to end SNAP grocery aid to 42 million Americans, President Trump said he didn’t know how to comply. Trump said his attorneys were reviewing the court orders. It was a mixed message. On one hand, Trump said it would be “my honor to provide the funding” — a contradiction to originally having threatened further SNAP assistance. Trump also contradicted himself by claiming his hands were tired about SNAP funding. Last week, Trump noted, he used contingency funds to restore military salaries that also were caught in his budget feud with Congress.
