Lets see what get proposed and then we can advocate and try to stop it.

OP here.

He is proving he CAN wave a magic wand and hurt our disabled family members.

DEI GONE! POOF!

DEI was NEVER about the disabled and you know it. It was about skin color, that's it.

The EO didn’t say DEI. It said DEIA. The A is for accessibility. He literally directly targeted a accessibility programs and put those who work in those departments on leave as of 5pm yesterday.

Damn. Way worse than I thought.

It's crystal clear now his hatred for the disabled.

This is true. Disability hiring is under the umbrella of DEI, and those programs (in federal agencies at least) are going away. That wasn't really Trump's and his minions' goal, but some disability initiatives will be collateral damage for sure. This is not right, even under Trump's argument, because these programs aren't about special treatment but rather leveling the playing field (so making decisions based on merit, as they purport to support). But, they operate the same way (i.e., disabled people being a protected class). Some of these instances will be challenged in court though, because it's required under law. You can't EO away the ADA, Rehab Act, etc., and it would not be politically smart to try to do so.

SSDI is being abused by a lot of people. These small towns that voted for Trump, whole families collecting benefits, with a doctor rubber stamping the disability.

What a ridiculous post! Trump took his nephew Fred off their insurance policy and said his severely disabled son would be better off dead.

Just more hysterics from the left. Honestly, I avoided this forum all day because I knew it would be full of lying trolls and sure enough...

How does it feel to be proven such a liar????

Disabled to be crushed by Medicaid cuts.

All part of the Trump eugenics program.

Lmao…I can’t wait for the MAGAs to figure out that their genes are definitely not making the cut.

You can apologize now.

Apologize for what? Were you trying to stoke ableism? If not, the title is wrong. It should be: What do you hope Trump does for the disabled?

Clearly, he will do nothing because he is an ableist. Are you?

No, I wanted all the MAGA folks out there to tell us the truth: They can't wait for the disabled to be hurt. It's what they WANTED.

Then take out out on the doctors who run these rackets, not the disabled who rely on Medicaid.

Just popped onto this thread for the first time. Wow. There are definitely some crazy people here.
Where are the Trump supporters? Ignoring you. We hear this kind of rhetoric whenever a Republican president is in power and the doomsday predictions never materialize.
So, we ignore you. Because we know all you have left is lies.

Bullcrap.

You mean it's never doomsday for YOU.

These Medicaid cuts will decimate the support system for the disabled.

You are obviously ignorant because you choose to be.

Yep. And, like so many before they are filled with doomsday predictions that will end up being wrong. Just wait. You'll see.
