President Donald Trump plans to propose $1.7 trillion in cuts to a category of spending that includes major social and entitlement programs for lower-income Americans, as part of an effort to balance the budget within a decade.
The White House will issue a formal budget request Tuesday that includes $274 billion in cuts over 10 years to means-tested anti-poverty programs, including food stamps, according to a Republican congressional aide and a White House document obtained by Bloomberg News. |

Trump campaigned on "repeal and replace Obamacare" but he always maintained that it would be better. He said he would reduce the costs but never said anything about reducing how many people were covered.

It might be more accurate to say that rich people "resent paying taxes for programs that help poor people". They also seem to just, in general, resent paying taxes for any program other than the military. At least on the Republican side.
