Trump picked the project 2025 archetect Russel Vought to head the Office of Management and Budget. He was in Trump's first administration and favored heavy cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, and even Social Security benefits. He was reported as cutting 1.6 trillion from Medicaid in the 2020 budget plan. He is certainly going to suggest similar cuts to the 2025 and future budgets targeting these programs, which will affect many of the most vulnerable citizens.
This might illustrate what the Trump administration intends to do to reduce the deficit. Of course these cuts are in the shadow of the massive tax cuts expected to be continued for the wealthy, and even lower tax rates for corporations. Combine these budget cuts to whatever Musk and Vivek suggest be cut will surely ripple down chaos and financial ruin to many who rely on these programs.
Vought will surely be eager to cut as much as possible to reduce the deficit, and without much concern about the vulnerable Americans who it will affect.
