He is breaking his
campaign promise not to cut Medicaid and Social Security, taking $1.4
trillion out of Medicaid over the next 10 years, without offering a
policy to achieve those cuts, and slashing funds for the
Social Security disability insurance programs that serve 10 million
Americans. Frankly, the President made fun of those with disabilities
during the course of the campaign, and now he cuts billions of dollars
from the ability of the disabled to maintain some degree of dignity and
health. President Trump also pledged that the American taxpayer would not
pay--would not pay--for the border wall he wants to build. Of course,
his budget asks the U.S. taxpayer to pay for that wall. When it comes
to keeping Americans safe from threats overseas, President Trump's
budget fails miserably as well, cutting the budgets for diplomacy and
foreign aid that complement the work of our military in combating ISIS
and other terror groups.
