The left (lead by Al Green now) is screaming about Trump cutting Medicaid

Did I miss the statement where he said he was cutting Medicaid?
Do they think the American people associate not paying someone benefits who is 150 years old as cutting Medicaid?

Have you seen the crap that Democrats like AggieHank post on here? They don't care about intellectual honesty, and they know their voters don't care either.

Trump has said well over 100 times that they are indeed cutting Medicaid but it’s cutting fat, dead weight, waste and fraud. If someone is currently on Medicaid then they have absolutely nothing to worry about if they are receiving Medicaid legally

The budget outline targets that the republicans have put forward would not be possible without a large medicaid cut.
So this comes from the Trump Administration, not democrats.

I have read elsewhere that the issue with medicare is that it is used as a wash machine to fluff up federal monies to states. A long recognized issue by both parties. California is by far the worst. Will require Congress to undo a 40 year old law

Johnson was on some network saying exactly this. If you meet eligibility, then you have nothing to worry about. Its the 29yr old sitting on his couch that is getting benefits for no reason that they are trying to cut.

THOSE are the targeted areas that will be audited and combed through to find cost savings and bring oversight and accountability to the system. Qualified recipients (poor people) will continue to receive their Medicaid benefits.

Quite frankly, I don't care if they do cut Medicaid.
I am paying a ridiculous amount for health insurance with a huge deductible.
I am paying a ridiculous amount in federal, state and local taxes.
I am tired of seeing people stroll into the ER for a splinter and pay nothing while my wife and I avoid going to the doctor or hospital due to the costs.
I am tired of subsidizing scum.
Cut it all for all I care.

Liberals always go back to the same talking points when they got nothing.
Cut Medicare, SS, and Medicaid.
Then tax cuts for Billionaires.
Trump could say he is not a million zillion times and they will still say the same damn thing.

GOP budget goals impossible without Medicare and Medicaid cuts, budget office says

Republicans cannot reach their budget goal of slashing at least $1.5tn in spending over the next decade to fund Donald Trump’s tax cuts and immigration crackdown without cutting healthcare relied upon by tens of millions of Americans – including seniors and children, according to the non-partisan budget assessor.
Im calling bullshite. More left wing think tank fear mongering.

Not if you cut the millions of dead people you are paying.
Here they are trying to trick you my guy. No one is talking about taking your grandma off ss except democrats. We are saying take your great grandma who would be 190 today off of ss. Because shes dead.

Only democrats believe cutting all of the fraud out of Medicaid is the same as cutting Medicaid. You support the fraud because it buys your side votes.

And he's inching closer to getting tossed from the House Financial Services Committee. That'd be a shame.

A majority of Americans, including people who voted for President Trump in November, do not want to see Medicaid funding cut, according to a poll from KFF released Friday.
More than 80 percent of respondents, including majorities of Democrats, Republicans, independents, Trump voters, and adults living in rural areas, said Medicaid funding should either increase or be kept about the same.
Here is the trick again.
No one is talking about taking you still kicking around off medicaid.
But the person who is older than the country, they have to go.
Im 65 years old, lets increase funding. I personally get nothing more, just the fraud and abuse increases. Thats just dumb. They arent going to increase funding and pay you more.

I have seen numerous reports and interviews, I have only heard the phrase cutting waste and fraud. I have NEVER heard cutting benefits to people who are eligible.
If looking at your household bills you decide to stop buying junkfood in your groceries the left would declare you are starving your children to death and declare to end child abuse!
Sadly the media would follow right along and the zombie mask wearing sky screamers would follow along too.

So cutting waste and fraud has no bearing on the Republicans budget target? Might be time to stop using your arse for a hat if you refuse to add that to account.
