Among the many remarkable news reports that emanated from Washington last week as Congress put the finishing touches on President Trump’s massive budget bill, one was truly shocking.
The day before its final passage, Trump told a group of Republican lawmakers that the bill should not touch Medicaid if the GOP hoped to win in the 2026 elections.
But, of course, as one of the members told Trump, quote: “We are touching Medicaid.”
Indeed, the word “touching,” is an all-time understatement. The so-called “big, beautiful bill” doesn’t just touch Medicaid, it utterly wrecks it.
The White House tried to put a fig leaf on the president’s stunningly uniformed comment, saying that the bill would only cut waste fraud and abuse, but as has been repeatedly documented, that’s simply false.
The bottom line: Millions of Americans on Medicaid are about to lose their health insurance as a result of the massive cuts the legislation inflicts and the Republicans who voted for it – including the entire North Carolina GOP delegation save for Sen. Thom Tillis – are going to rue making it happen.
