A story about how inflation is hitting foster and adoptive parents who are raising nine kids predictably caused some sneering from lefties. The story included the parents saying how much more they’re spending for several gallons of milk per week, and one conservative mom ripped those mocking it.
New York Times Wordplay also got in on the mockery in a now-deleted tweet:
sorry, i can't do today's crossword. i'm too busy carrying my 12 gallons of milk home.

So much caring. So much compassion. So much deletion.
These people hate you. Always remember that…particularly when you’re in the voting booth. https://t.co/QMrejeOpyk

Deleted but do keep this condescending crap up guys. Alienating & mocking more struggling families should make the mid-terms very interesting. @NYTimesWordplay @nytimes pic.twitter.com/kCrGDVToDI

Yep! Hopefully they keep it up through the midterms next year.

It’s hard to imagine why normal citizens in America don’t trust The New York Times. pic.twitter.com/x6dHw1PAmb

What are the odds that whoever tweeted that for the Times is a 20-year-old intern with no kids and no understanding of inflation or the real world in general.
