If you enact the Trump tax cuts and then try to balance the budget by the end of Trump's term - but want to protect Social Security, Medicare, vets, and defense - it would mean cutting the rest of the government nearly 90%.
If you tried to also spare Medicaid, it makes it mathematically impossible.

Trump backed GOP into a big corner with his “balanced budget” point.
The ONLY way House GOP could even think about upholding their “no cuts to Medicaid” swing seat promises and their spending cut mandates is deficit spending and bad math.
Now they have to gut Medicaid & hand it to Elon in public.
