The meal he referred to is a community dinner held for the homeless. He eats every meal somewhere the community meals are served. He looks forward to them and seeing other people like him in the same situation.

He has family in Florida, but, states he would have to pitch a tent in the back yard as the family's home is full and then some. He also stated the tent would not be tolerated by the neighbors in Florida and he didn't want to cause anyone trouble.

Nick is one of many Americans sincerely struggling to achieve housing and with it some degree of monthly support to sustain the housing and some degree of quality of life. I think if Nick had a place to call home, food to eat, a television or more properly stated screen and internet he could be happy.

That is one of my conversations with Nick. He is "in it to win it" with the extremist Republican arm because of guns. He is convinced Americans need to be armed to protect from "the crazies." What Nick disconnects from is the reality that is Donald John Trump. There are no conspiracies against Trump, there is however the law. What Nick also seems to disconnect from is that Trump, like Victor Orban, IS THE CRAZY Nick seeks to protect from. He cannot fathom that reality. I tried to explain it to him and maybe he will "get it" someday, but, right now Nick is still lost in his own reality and willing to be a MAGA Republican because of the conspiracies against them.

Yes, I have talked with him face to face. He loves his car.
