Here is proof Trump will destroy Medicare and Medicaid for his priorities: Tax Cuts to the Rich.

February 4, 2025 By Egberto Willies

Senator Bill Cassidy may have spilled the beans at Robert Kennedy’s hearing as he infers Medicare and Medicaid cuts will be used to fund Trump’s agenda.

Trump will destroy Medicare and Medicaid.

Summary

The video exposes the Republican plan to gut Medicaid and shift Medicare toward privatization to fund Trump’s priorities, particularly tax cuts for the wealthy. Senator Bill Cassidy and others discuss ways to cut Medicaid, promote Medicare Advantage, and transition government-funded healthcare programs to private control, falsely claiming Americans prefer private insurance. The ultimate goal is to reduce federal healthcare spending while enriching corporations and the ultra-wealthy, all under the guise of “reform.”

Key Takeaways

  • Medicaid Cuts to Fund Trump’s Priorities – Republicans are strategizing ways to slash Medicaid funding, disproportionately harming low-income and rural Americans.
  • Push for Medicare Privatization – The GOP aims to steer more seniors into Medicare Advantage, a private insurance program that limits coverage and increases out-of-pocket costs.
  • Deceptive Rhetoric on Healthcare Choice – Conservatives falsely claim that Americans prefer private insurance while pushing policies that restrict options and drive up healthcare costs.
  • Budget Reconciliation Maneuvering – By using reconciliation, Republicans can bypass the filibuster and force through these drastic cuts with a simple Senate majority.
  • Healthcare Cuts to Pay for Tax Breaks – The ultimate motivation is to strip funding from public healthcare programs to finance another round of tax cuts for corporations and the ultra-wealthy.

Progressive Perspective

This video makes it clear: Trump and the GOP are actively working to dismantle healthcare programs that millions of Americans depend on, all to serve their real base—the ultra-rich and powerful corporations. Their rhetoric about “reform” and “choice” is a smokescreen for gutting public programs while funneling money to private insurers and donors. If they succeed, countless Americans will lose access to essential care, all while the wealthiest continue to profit. The time to fight back is now.
