Trump latest blueprint for administration spending proposals is unlikely to be passed by the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives, particularly in an election year.
The budget will raise military spending by 0.3 percent to $740.5 billion for the fiscal year 2021, starting Oct. 1 and propose higher outlays for defense and veterans, administration officials said.That includes $130 billion from changes to Medicare prescription-drug pricing, $292 billion from cuts in safety net programs — such as work requirements for Medicaid and food stamps — and $70 billion from tightening eligibility rules for federal disability benefits.
Trump's foreign aid proposal seeks $44.1 billion in the upcoming fiscal year compared with $55.7 billion enacted in fiscal year 2020, an administration official said. Aid to Ukraine would remain at its 2020 levels under the new proposal, the official said. Trump was acquitted last week of impeachment charges that he withheld aid to Ukraine to spur Kyiv to investigate political rival Joe Biden, a Democratic presidential candidate and former U.S. vice president.
Administration officials told Reuters that Trump would request an increase in funding for the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation to $700 million compared to $150 million the previous year.
He’s gonna burn in hell.
I pray to God that he will put a stop to this heartless evil man.
choptopmoseley This “man” is filth.
smartdissent And the pentagon wants 15 billion for Space Force. 🤣😂🤣😂😥😥😥😥
Lordy, when will GOP understand they CANNOT touch Soc Sec or Medicare? Those are both separate trusts that citizens have been paying into for generations. They keep trying to prioritize but keep failing. ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE If they touch these. GOP will be officially DEAD!
He’s cutting the increase, leaving Medicare still larger than last year. Either NBC has stupid “reporters” who couldn’t figure that out, or NBC is still fully invested in lying to the people and working hard to make Trump look bad.
SURPRISE! BILLIONNAIRES WIN AGAIN!
NicoleBurleyNYC Cutting give a ways!
choptopmoseley how to budget the US deficit, DON'T FUCKING SPEND BILLIONS FOR MILITARY EQUIPMENT IN THE MIDDLE EAST
Hey look how is Trump going to pay for his tax cut for the long neglected rich and corporations?
Kristie58407111 Satan won’t even welcome him to Hell
Does he know that he’s going to affect those folks that attend his pump me up rallies? Or Do they know that his policies affect them gravely? I’d say neither knows, 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is not America this is not about Americans this is all about himself and the top one percent follow the money trail to everyone around him. Make America a poor country people dying cause of no healthcare can’t afford it people can to go to college can’t afford it Not America
Only in DC can a 6% increase in Medicare and a 3% increase to Medicaid be called cuts.
So basically if u can’t afford a supplement your gonna die
Rural hospitals will be the first to go... Does he think this is going to help his re-election? Sounds like he's ok with losing those votes. Dems should pounce all over this move.
Y do you keep going after the Medicare.y don’t you stop Putining that F wall stop that money and get ridiculous son in-law out of the White House and stop Being adicktart of the world I’ve seen all the lives you have done that’s all for now
There are enough hospitals closing down in rural areas of this country. He is trying to close the rest. I hope the people in the middle of the country who are worshipping him don’t end up in an emergency situation where their hospital is closed. Prayer is not going to help you.
danpfeiffer Lynseywallman
But let the liar tell it the Dems want to take our healthcare and social security. It’s been the republicans plan to make major cuts to both......well you all know what we gotta do see you guys at the ballot box. GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!
Again they steal our money. Again!
Maybe they should charge less
Fake news steps up to plate takes a swing and whiffs again..suckers
Cut foreign aid but leave our $ 4 d poor n work n poor B
More BS from the media.
What a tool.
💩💩💩
GoneQuiet7 BillionDollarLoser trumpIsACorruptLiar
But, But-Mr. Impeached, “Individual-1” told US during his SOTU address he WOULD NOT CUT MEDICARE! He wouldn’t lie to We, The People, would he? I mean, he has only done that OVER 16,000 times since he took Office. Tell me “you hope” realDonaldTrump won’t do that, SenatorCollins!
Many of the rural hospitals his supporters depend on for survival will probably close . His base blithely cheer their own evisceration.
Trashy MAGA is what is Wrong with USA Republicans are a National Disgrace A Vote for Trump is Treason TreasonousTrump
It's hurting his base
As of November 2019 more than 71 million receive 'Medicaid' benefits?
He’s cutting an Obama loophole that allows hospitals to charge way more for certain services. It was designed to help hospitals cover people w/ no insurance, but now it is overly abused. Its just common sense money management. Like anyone would do that runs a household.
Can someone explain to me how the tweet matches the content of the article?
But he can come up with $15.4B for Space Farce, no problem.
Trump the Mancurian candidate
Leys see his travel budget...
Sooo realDonaldTrump keeping promises
Yes... Jesus said cut the money from the poor and the hospitals! SMH
Is anyone surprised? I know the trumpers won't believe it still.
Oh my Goodness Gracious, I’ll say a prayer for the Americans tonight.
yes trump NEEDS TO GO! He borrows 4 trillion dollars from the feds for 2020 then he cuts Medicare and social security to pay for the taxes of the rich he just gave the 4 trillion dollars too!
Hate is truly blinding! So, realDonaldTrump blinds his followers with bogus matters & hatred of the other side but literally steals from them things that mean life and death to them like Coverage for pre-existing conditions, Medicare & Social Sec! Ultimate con job, Wow..
danpfeiffer Psst! Trump hates the poor and the working class. Pass it on.
It also shows that the Anti-President doesn't have a clue that being the leader of the Free World imposes certain obligations that are non-refundable in any way. These are Honour Obligations that come with being Number One!
This budget proposal clearly shows that His Presidential Highness doesn't understand American values and needs to be part of the International Community.
Please quote the dollar amount of the foreign aid cuts. Also you should plainly state that *Trump* doesn't make the budget. It's made my the *individuals* (and their lackeys) that he has installed in the country's executive branch departments.
Ummmm You may want to re-read (or read for understanding). Trump budget proposes no cuts to Medicare nor SSI...some other welfare programs right, and much needed
These are NOT SAFTY NET PROGRAMS.THEASE ARE RETIREMENT BENEFITS PREPAID FROM OUR PAYCHECKS.WE’VE ALREADY PAID FOR THESE PROGRAMS WITH A LIFETIME OF WORK.OUR MONEY! Not “ENTITLEMENTS” NOT GIVE-AWAYS NOT CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS; MONEY TAKEN FROM OUR PAYROLLS!realDonaldTrump
The cut to Foreign Aid is most likely another attempt to attack Joe Biden. This reduction will greatly reduce his family’s net income.
realDonaldTrump from Isreal?
This must motivate us more!!!
That includes social security and Medicare. Seniors are you listening?
Yep. Heil trump. It's slowly creeping up. Fools!!! Wake up!!!
He’s not slashing SSI.!! Fake news!!!
Democrats should play on a loop 'I'm going to cut social security.'
trump knows his budget won’t pass a Democrat led Congress. It’s his way of shifting blame for the huge deficits he is running in good economic times. This is a recession waiting to happen.
And the money he cuts becuz it’s going where?
And all of 'rural America' that are beholden to social programs will vote against their interests because racism.
Over my dead body.
Good
Your champion, stealing your Social Security. Good going, Trumpers.
heh heh, Pelosi controls the purse strings.
Most of Trump prople are not on Twitter, they had better open there eyes, to what this stupid so called President is doing.
DemocRATS should be working for Americans first. They complain about all this free stuff we need but yet want to give money to the entire world including illegal immigrants... TRUMP 2020 LATINOS FOR AMERICA
What percent of the budget savings will go into his pocket?
I want to say things but I'd get suspended 🤬
How about a 100% cut in foreign aid until we have eliminated our national debt.
Fvck this monster. He is Satan and he needs to go.
The rich keep getting richer, companies are paying less tax, and now he wants to cut assistance the the poorest of the poor. Not what America stands for!
I hate this fucker so much. Cutting disability and safety nets to pay for millionaire tax cuts
but will get a moat.........................
Democrats should not pass any budget that cuts down social programs.
Looks like TRUMP again is taking away more from the poor and more giving more to the rich !
I guess Trump has to find ways to pay for his ineffectual wall, the bailouts for farmers after his failed trade policies, the huge tax breaks for the wealthy etc, etc. The poor and vulnerable will be the ones to suffer. They are of no concern to Trump and his administration.
Getting trump out is up to white Americans. They have to decide if they want the lowlife candidate to continue to represent America
How about if we cut subsidies to huge corporations instead of targeting the healthcare of people with disabilities.
karenrosesmith No thank you. AnybodyButTrump2020
Hasn't kept a campaign promise yet.....
Trump Pence Pompeii Kavagnah must go
Kids don't need school lunches... poor people don't need flu shots.
Dear Trump supporters. Say goodbye to you’re social security, Medicare and Democracy. Trump has been on a rampage since 2015 He’s getting worse everyday. wakethefuckup
Only in Washington does actual spending go up every year and far left & NBC reports spending cuts...federal spending has gone up in 2019, budgeted for increases in 2020 and 2021. Yikes
Why are officials leaking information?🤬
ok with me. why gove my money to country's that hate us
Cut the friggin military budget and take care of the most vulnerable people first!!!
Sounds wonderful
Oh...here's some post acquittal retaliation for those of us who just happen to be 'NOT the 1%.' I thought the econ was 'Best ever!' So why the cuts? Oh yeah...to own the libs. Or is it to tear at an Obama policy (or sticky note on the fridge)? What frikkin' lyin' sack...
I guess my question would be why?
21% foreign aid cut translation = cutting politicians embezzlement off
It means nothing and you know this. Nancy writes the budgets.
Good. Spending cuts should be deep in all areas.
I agree on the foreign aid. We should cut aid to Isreal as well if we want to be fair to all. Social security should not see any cuts. We should cut the defense budget. Majority of that money is not even going to the men and women serving. It's going to contractors fleecing govt.
The evil mr burns at it again....smh
Good why are we supporting so manu countries while ours is falling apart
Any trimmings to be seen in trump’s hair care/ spray tan budget$? Will he discount 🇺🇸GOV cost$ for staying-using tRuMp PROPERTIES M...🤔😲
And just like that, the people criticizing Trump for deficits all of the sudden are upset he is cutting deficits.
Donald trump is suck
Safety net—- just making people meet eligibility requirements. Able bodied people should work. This food stamp program has been massively abused for 40 years. I’ve seen it myself. Foreign aid needs to be totally eliminated. But yes, let’s spin it to make it sound catastrophic 🙄
45 s formula to be eliminated in the election. Stable genius🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Bigger war machine at the expense of the sick, disabled and poor. 🤔
Thank for we finally have a president who fucking gets it! WE THE PEOPLE have never once votes to send money overseas like they do! Thank you for fixing that Mr. President Trump2020LandslideVictory
What do you have to lose? Now we know. A corrupt, lying Trump.
Won’t that dotard be in prison by 2021?!
Having Trump give the majority of tax payers dollars to the wealthy and taking it from everybody else will create oligarchs in the USA. We will become like Trumps friend Putin's Russia. His supporters don't seem to realize that Trumps dangerous to our country.
I read that the amount he wants to cut from SS and Medicaid costs roughly the same as his and Bush's tax cuts. So, if they roll those back, we wouldn't have to touch Social Security or Medicaid. RealTalk
Nope
Foreign aid should be cut by 80%
Promises made, promises kept. That’s my president!
JeanieHorine Slashing social safety net programs will impact the majority of idiots who line up for his rallies. So be it.
I feel for the kids that this will affect. I don't feel for their Maga parents.
There go our money to pay for the 1% richest break. Every year trump has been in office he's cut social security, medicare. After saying he wouldn't touch the programs. Leing crook!
While we're at it, we need term limits for the House & Senate. Two terms is enough. Accomplish what you set out to for your constituents and move along.
Trump is having a blast tearing Americans to shreds.
-- 'When they go low, we go high!' Michelle Obama 4 President, 2020!! (She's the only person who can defeat Donald Trump!)
Good people of welfare..slash programs.. Makes sense.
At least he’s not a Russian operative, oh wait...
Keep up the great work Mr Trump!
Start with Israel. Apparently the US contributes more to their security than they do!
And I hope the House stops him cold.
Democrats: LOL no
Yet Dems want to bring up the deficit but don’t offer solutions of their own. Hypocrites!
Huge cut to EPA too. Disgraceful!!
Is NBC offering to pay for this deficit spending?
VoteBlue✌🏼💙2020 No more clowns🤡🤡🤡
