Donald Trump has spent much of the year insisting he won’t make any cuts to Medicaid. On Feb. 18 in an interview he said “none of that stuff is going to be touched”, on Feb. 26 he told a Cabinet meeting “we’re not going to touch it”, and on May 4 he told journalists he’d veto any bill that includes Medicaid cuts, saying “they’re not cutting it”, underlining: “We’re not cutting Medicaid, we’re not cutting Medicare.”
Well, I hope you’re ready to be shocked beyond comprehension, because the famously truthful and straightforward Donald Trump is… *drum roll* cutting Medicaid. Wow, who could possibly have seen this coming?
