The key thing to note is, you can't steal it when it's already yours.
Unlike Dems who have smashed and grabbed money, forcibly, from law abiding citizens' pocketbooks for years, hey?
The best example of why this meme has it bass-ackwards is Demtard Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse from RI. He originated the parroted claim of DOGE being a smash and grab operation, yet ironically he voted for spending bills that directly funnel money into his wife's so called non-profit.
In other words, he's directly stealing your and my tax dollars, assuming you pay taxes, to line his own pockets.
If that's not utter demontard hypocrisy, no crime is.
