Are you really that dense?  Both those programs are NOT part of this budget.  Do you have any inkling why not?

 

These programs are a part of government spending.   And both of these program run deficits.  Which requires money from the general fund.

This thread will likely be loaded with alot of deflection by faithful devotees who have no interest in discussing the actual issues. Defend, defend and defend. Never admit Trump is insane, unhinged, or wrong. 

You are a part of the problem.

During the entire 20 years that Clinton, Obama and Biden were in office I was constantly criticizing their policy. Go back and look at some of my previous posts, I almost never see one of Trump's acolytes doing the same thing, almost never. 

 

It is as if total fealty is asked for, insisted upon, and adhered to. 

 

Right, people are going to eights years of posts to see if we’re critical of Obama, Clinton or Biden.

What Republicans Don’t Want To Say: Blue States Are the Ones Bailing Out Red States

This is a tired false narrative. 

A deep dive into this cruel bill that takes from the poor (including food from hungry American children) to give to the richest.

So funny as so many of the maga cult members are the ones that are going to hurt from the effects of this mean and disgusting, very ugly bill. 

Americans used to say, we're better than that.

Under Trump, we're actually a lot worse.

How far would have that billion dollars that Kamala's handlers stole gone to help US Healthcare?

 

Affordable care act was an extension of welfare

You're incapable of actually addressing issues.

This maga/Trump bill is completely INDEFENSIBLE. 

Unless you're a cruel sadist that enjoys starving poor children, that is. 

And maga Mike Johnson calls himself a devout Christian. 

The hypocrisy is stunning.

The phrase "think of the children" is often used as a rhetorical tactic in debates to evoke emotional responses rather than logical discussion.

Sure but the fact is that your dear leader actually IS depriving food for hungry children with his big ugly bill and emotional or not, that is FACT, and you can't hide from it.  Why? To transfer that money to billionaires. There is NO MORALITY in the maga movement. None at all.

1) It's not a fact.

As for the 14 million how many are not entitled to receive benefits?

It's good John McCain didn't live to see this.

He saved the ACA.

Trump's maga movement is now gutting it.

 

The big ugly CRUEL bill not only massively guts Medicaid.

It will also automatically trigger 4 percent annual budget reductions to Medicare.

It kills subsidies for the ACA, which in effect, kills the point of the program.

 

I don't know how many of those 14 million people being set up to be royally screwed by Maga/Trump are in his cult or voted for this regime, but needless to say, a huge portion.

 

The Trump regime 2.0 is turning the U.S. into a dystopian hellscape and we're still in the early days of it.

 

Trump's Tax Bill Would Decimate the Affordable Care Act

Blah blah blah.  Yet another anti-Trump post from the usual suspect 😉

Does raising the SALT deduction to $40,000 to appease the North East blue a massive benefit to billionaires?  

 

Is keeping the 2025 brackets a huge boom for billionaires?

 

The term billionaire is measure of wealth, not income.   

 

The use of "tax cuts for billionaires" nothing but a trope by the dems to inflame the low information masses.

Sorry wrong topic.

 

The blue states are not bailing out the red state.  End of story.   It's another false narrative for the low information leftie.   

 

1) States don't pay taxes.   indiivduals do. 

2) Most states get about 32% of their budget from the federal government.  

3) The US is running a 1.8 trillion dollar deficit which means the blue states are not paying their fair share.
