WaPo: Trump to propose big cuts to safety-net in new budget, slashing Medicaid

[Yank2133]

For my brother (who relies on Medicaid) to continue receiving care, there needs to be cuts to make it sustainable. This is worrisome, but it's not like we can continue on the same path. How much influence Ryan has over this process will determine my support.

If only the Dems were less partisan. The GOP blocked Obama at every turn while the Democrats whined about "muh bipartisanship." They should put their money where their mouths are and work with Trump on the single-payer plan that he himself floated in 2015. Much better alternative IMO.

You are such a disingenuous hack.

Trump hasn't even bother to call one single Democrat about healthcare. He immediately began to negotiate with the Freedom Caucus when it came to healthcare and moved to the right.

Hell, he didn't even bother trying to do business with the moderates in his own party.

He's gonna govern like an economic populist one day. He said so and I trust him!

lol.

The fact that people still buy into the myth of him being a populist is sad. The man is a con-artist with no set beliefs and just says whatever sounds good at the time.

Why should he? You guys have been working against him from Wednesday, November  9th. The WI and PA recounts, the "Hamilton Electors," the riots, the walk-outs, the collusion with the intelligence communities and the neoconservative elites to effect a coup. You guys could have been friends, but you choose to make us your enemies. That is solely on your side.

The moderates in our own party are even worse. They're bitter because the American people have been rejecting them non-stop since 2008.

Oh please, stop whining.

If Trump seriously wants to do something about healthcare, then he can easily get Democrats on board since they have been wanting to make changes to the ACA for years now. Infrastructure as well is something he could have gotten Democratic support.

He won't do it because he doesn't care about these issues and doesn't believe in anything. The AHCA should have been a wake up call to every moron who believed in Trump's populist BS. He is far more concern about getting perceived "win" then actually trying to fix the issues with healthcare.
