The president is planning to rip $800bn out of Medicaid to fund his ‘big, beautiful bill’

Darren Bullock, 40, is a Trump voter who switched from the Democrats in 2016.

He is likely to lose Medicaid coverage because of the new requirements, although he is not hopeful of finding adequate employment.

“If they want people to work 80 hours a month, they’d need to bring in a lot more jobs,” he says.

    “If they want people to work 80 hours a month, they’d need to bring in a lot more jobs,” he says.

    Why 80 hours? Is that a threshold that has taken on a specific meaning in the US political discord? Otherwise it seems a little random, that’s like a 50% employment, right?
