I for the life of me can't figure out how MAGA is about to take some health benefits and ACA away from IT'S OWN VOTERS....


Maybe because...they're not? They put in a $50 billion rural hospital fund.

While they give our Blue friends SALT.

They DID do this, although I think I see why:

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/0...

Trump’s 2017 tax cuts added a $10,000 cap on the SALT deduction through 2025, which has been a key issue for certain lawmakers in high-tax blue states. Before 2018, the SALT deduction was unlimited but curbed by the alternative minimum tax for some wealthier households.

The Republicans’ marquee legislation temporarily raises the SALT deduction limit to $40,000 starting in 2025. That benefit starts to phase out, or decrease, for consumers who earn more than $500,000 of income. Both figures will increase by 1% yearly through 2029 and the higher limit will revert to $10,000 in 2030.

I think they did this to give the d's an incentive to actually bargain the next time around.
