***Official Political Discussion Thread***

Admittedly I'm not all that familiar with the inner workings of Medicaid. What exactly does "depending on Medicaid to get their services" mean in this scenario?
Like home-care?
I work in behavioral services and most of the people we work with basically have zero income and are homeless so any and all services they get between medical/mental/behavioral are paid with Medicaid dollars.

For us, that doesn't mean we would reject services, ppl would still receive them but we wouldn't survive financially without it.
 
Translation....

"Oh **** this is going bad....undo it, undo it"

And right now, the GOP are at a retreat where their main cost cutting proposals to extend Trump's tax cuts is cutting Medicaid to the bone.
Good luck. Cause Trump ain’t gonna have to explain to their constituents why a family member had to die so Elon could save a few million.

The only way they can do it is raise or end the debt ceiling. It’s easier to backtrack on fiscal responsibility than someone’s dead family member.

I'm guessing some companies would actually rather just freeze services?

Not slander if it’s factual.

Yeah. It's more about getting a clear, simple message out there. Cause we all know the Dems and they'll do ads and interviews talking about "well when we were in office we tried to work on a bipartisan deal etc etc etc"

And we all know the repubs are going to try and spin it that it's actually the Dems fault.

Get everybody in line and start placing the blame where it belongs in easy, simple language. Nothing else. This last cycle taught us that a lot of people don't care how you're going to fix things in the future but they sure as hell know whos holding the bag when things go bad. We need to start using that.
 
Took Nvidia one day to get back half of what they lost on Monday. They may be up by eow. Deepseek all style no substance, market has spoken
 
Everyone I know that I have contacted from the city, county, and state say they are in shocked and scared or what this means

Some Republican and Republican aligned folk just went home because people are going off on them if they try to defend Trump.

When **** really hits the fan, it's not home they'll need to be. It's in a bunker.

They are going to find out what happens when you intentionally starve your population.
