Veteran journalist and former CBS News anchor Dan Rather predicted dire outcomes if the White House’s federal budget proposal were to take effect, including death.

“Rather than investing in what will truly make America great, this philosophy pounds its chest with false bravado,” Rather said in a Facebook note. “People will die because of this budget. People will suffer. Diseases will spread, and cures will not be found. … our nation will be much darker and more dangerous.”

“‘Cruel and unusual,’ the phrase rings in my head as I read the press reports of President Donald Trump’s proposed budget,” he added.

“Mr. Trump’s philosophy is an opening salvo in a battle for the soul of America that is only beginning,” Rather said. “This will be a battle fought trench by trench.”
