You better check your numbers we only spent $550 billion on medicade in 2016. How is he going to cut more than we spend?President Trump has long promised not to cut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security. But in his budget released on Tuesday, he proposes making massive cuts to Medicaid. Mr. Trump is proposing to cut $610 billion from Medicaid benefits. This could come on top of more than $800 billion in cuts to Medicaid sought in the health care overhaul bill passed by the House on May 4. The Medicaid program provides health insurance to 1 in 5 Americans, including children, women, disabled people and the elderly. If you include the CHIP program that Trumps budget will gut, 1 of every 3 American children will lose major portions of their healthcare coverage.
