Comment on GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid
MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week agoDuring the campaign Trump repeatedly said he wouldn’t mess with Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. Towards the end of the campaign he stopped saying Medicaid. But just last week he was asked about cuts and said he wouldn’t touch Medicaid.
I guess it’s all true because Congress is going to cut all three.

A bunch of trump admin people wrote project 2025 with the heritage foundation. Trump himself is a well known liar and was under criminal prosecution.

The amount of people I know that said they were voting Trump for “economic reasons” is far too high.
I know they make less money than I do, so they’re definitely not the ones benefitting from Trumps economic plans. The absolute buffoons.

Most of them were probably lying. They were voting for Trump because they wanted to make racism and sexism legal again.

I don’t know what they mean when they say economic reasons. Rent? Wages? Food costs? Apparently nond of those.

They don’t know either. They just get annoyed when you ask them to provide some more detail about what they mean.

I’m well aware. My best friend relies on medication to function that would cost $1600 each month if not for Medicaid. Obviously he can’t afford private insurance. I was trying to reassure him that it might not happen with that information a couple days ago. He’s screwed.

Not to me. At least half of Americans are not much better than apes. Honestly feels like we’ve got two different branches of the human tree coexisting. Like Neanderthals coexisting with homo sapiens.

Dehumanization? Sounds like something republicans would do.
