Summary

A new poll found that 71% of Trump voters oppose Medicaid cuts, while 82% of all voters reject them. Additionally, 60% of Trump voters said cutting food and nutrition programs is unacceptable.

Medicaid has become a key issue as House Republicans push for up to $2 trillion in budget cuts to advance Trump’s legislative agenda.

Their resolution directs the House Energy and Commerce Committee to find at least $880 billion in cuts.

This raises concerns that Medicaid, which covers 70 million people—mostly low-income and children—could be targeted despite GOP leaders downplaying benefit reductions.

you knew this shit was gonna happen. so.. why the fuck did you vote for him and the rest of the maga assholes?

oh yea.. that's right.

some of "those people" are helped by these programs, and you don't care who else gets hurt--even yourself or your family, just so long as some of those nasty 'un-deserving' blacks or gays or immigrants or poors get "what's coming to them".
