You’re correct. Typically, the budget proposals from former President Trump aimed to reduce the rate of increase in spending for Social Security and Medicare over a 10-year period, but not all of them sought to make direct cuts to these programs. Some of his budget proposals were criticized for potentially leading to benefit cuts indirectly through changes in administrative and disability reviews. However, the actual impact on benefits would have been subject to further legislative action and potentially legal challenges. It’s crucial to note that all presidential budget proposals are just recommendations. Congress is responsible for passing the budget and often changes the proposed budget significantly before approving it.
