President Trump Sends House Republicans a Direct Warning on Medicaid: “Don’t F*** Around with Medicaid!”

By The Blog Source

President Donald Trump traveled to Capitol Hill on Tuesday to urge House Republicans to support his expansive "big, beautiful" budget proposal. Trump reportedly told them, "Don't f*** around with Medicaid," as part of his direct warning. According to individuals who spoke to POLITICO, Trump stressed that additional Medicaid cutbacks are not an option at a private meeting with House Republicans. Instead of reducing benefits, he underlined the need to "save" Medicaid by getting rid of waste, fraud, and abuse.

The president also spoke to those who are adamant about the SALT deduction, encouraging them to "leave it alone" and agree to a small raise to the current $10,000 maximum.

With Speaker Mike Johnson supporting Trump's attempt to unite the Republican party behind what the president refers to as his "big, beautiful bill," the House Rules Committee is anticipated to finish the bill for a floor vote as early as Wednesday.

President Donald Trump issued a clear instruction to House Republicans during a high-stakes meeting on Tuesday to secure support for his domestic policy megabill, directly targeting dissident sections within his party. POLITICO claims that Trump urged lawmakers, "Don't f*** around with Medicaid," a direct message to conservatives who were pushing more drastic cuts.

Trump's desire to break the intraparty impasse was emphasized in his appeal during the GOP conference meeting, which was held behind closed doors. Outside the meeting, he told reporters, "I'm a bigger fiscal hawk." "No one compares to me." He told conservatives that rather than cutting Medicaid, we should focus on reducing waste, fraud, and abuse.

The president also focused on a group of lawmakers from high-tax blue states known as the "SALT Republicans," who have been advocating for an increase in the cap on state and local tax deductions. Trump rejected their requests, claiming that Democratic governors mostly gain from the deduction. He instructed everyone in the meeting to "leave it alone" and accept the current agreement, which very slightly raises the $10,000 threshold.

Trump's visit to Capitol Hill coincides with a crucial procedural event. The House Rules Committee is expected to meet on Wednesday to finalize the language of the legislation and prepare it for a full House vote. Speaker Mike Johnson hopes Trump's intervention will provide enough impetus to see the plan through to completion. Johnson has been trying to garner support from both extremes of the GOP.

The stakes are high for Trump, who has stated that he is prepared to crush intraparty opposition to "big, beautiful bill," which is a key component of his second-term agenda.
