Your statement is also false. Being on disability is one thing being a healthy person unwilling to work is another thing. Trump has never said anything close to throwing disabled Americans off government assistance. He wants to throw people unwilling to work off government assistance.

What type of assistance is there for people who simply don't want to work? Typically you need to be disabled to receive benefits.

Well you have SNAP, health insurance, housing allowance,CHIP, earned Income tax credit, Obama phones, and others. Also getting diagnosed now days with a disability is pretty easy.

A lot of those programs go hand in hand with people who are disabled.

The average national rate of approval for initial disability claims is 36%. This means about 64% of all initial claims are denied.

Doesn't sound easy to me. How do you think all those disability lawyers stay in business?

How exactly do you identify these lazy good-for-nothings from people cheating disability? Trump doesn't exactly seem like a guy who cares for nuance.
