Trump Proposes Cutting Medicare and Daycare Funding for War
The U.S. government cannot afford to cover costs for child care, Medicaid, or Medicare, President Donald Trump has stated, suggesting these responsibilities should shift to the states. Trump argued that the federal government’s primary focus should be on “military protection,” especially given the ongoing conflicts and their significant financial burden. This stance comes as the nation grapples with the economic impact of overseas wars, including a surge in gas prices and substantial military expenditures.
