These able bodied people spent most of last year attending Trump rallies rather than working.

They’re constantly shifting the narrative. So the new metric for healthcare access is… how many hours someone spends not working? Sounds less like policy and more like punishment. Medicaid is a lifeline, not a reward for productivity. And citing a think tank study about video games to justify cutting healthcare is not serious governance. It’s moralizing with a budget axe.

Rep. Guthrie’s claim oversimplifies Medicaid cuts. The AEI study he cites may exaggerate screen time for "able-bodied" adults, ignoring structural barriers to work. Fairness demands nuance, not stereotypes. Cuts risk harming vulnerable people.

A classic phantom political war… designed to brand a vague type of American as the enemy and the reason for their actions.
