2. Im worried about my dad

100% disabled. Cant move, cant feed himself. VA is presently footing the bill for everything.

3. Thank you. The Drumpfs will probably say he can go to work.

4. I'm not worried for myself...

...I have healthcare from my state pension but I use VA because I like it better than my BCBS. I am worried about other vets who only have VA and active duty folks that are gonna be forced into private healthcare thru TriCare.

8. Speaking only for myself

When I was active duty, I would have loved if they would have allowed me to go to private doctors through TriCare. We used TriCare (CHAMPUS at the beginning, later became TriCare) for wife & daughters so that they didn't have to use the base for medical care. Scraped to pay for a supplemental that picked up what TriCare didn't.

5. Evan Trump's base won't stand for cuts to veterans.

If they do, we’ll run their noses in it.

6. I'm retired AF

and I get my medical care from the Navy in San Diego. I can see him cutting medical benefits so only active duty members get seen on base and family members and retirees will have to see either a civilian provider and have to buy health insurance at a price 10X what their paying now.

7. that will just be for starters

Cadet Bonespurs DESPISES veterans.

9. It will take an act of Congress to change VA benefits.

Trump has also pledged to not touch SS or Medicare.

I'm not worried about it. If a person is on SNAP or Medicaid or ACA they should be concerned.

12. Yeah we all know how good a trump promise is...

10. I am worried about my fellow Americans that don't have veterans benefits

and pissed as hell that they don't ask why their pensions, retirement, benefits and healthcare suck so much.

[Wounded Bear]

11. A little. I'm on the fringe and if they do start cutting, I'll be on the block...

I hate the thought of them hanging trump's pic in the lobby again. But that is a minor inconvenience. As a Level 7, I suspect my co-pays will rise and treatments might get delayed, but we'll see I guess.

Don't blame me, I voted for Her.

13. We'll see if I get a check on Feb 1st.

There’s already a spotty history and a year of catch-up payments.
