That's what we elected him for, woo hooooo!!!Next up he wants to completely privatize the VA.
Yes, Trump is privatizing the VA
New proposals announced by the Trump Administration and Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin should dispel any doubt about the administration’s intentions to privatize the Veterans Health Administration. ......

Well, it's just a proposal so don't get your hopes up.
It could save money and help vets, but I lean more on the side it will cost much more money. Private medical providers for the choice program are now hard to find in some areas. The reimbursement is going to turn many off. Hell, in my area where there are several military bases and retired vets on Tricare are finding it hard to find any mental health providers that will even accept Tricare. I suspect this will be the case (finding enough providers) if the VA privatizes. I just hope whatever way they go they don't screw up any of us receiving are disability payments.
