No, they didn't. The medical facility didn't blame trump, the article didn't blame trump, and there's no proof that any of the citizens blame trump.
This is actually what the article says:
And then, later in the article it mentions how there's supposedly $50 billion coming from the feds to assist rural providers, and how disappointing it is that they've made this decision before the federal aid has been finalized.
This is being portrayed as a business decision to close this town's only healthcare facility. Anyone reading the article would have to believe that trump has anything to do with inflation or cutting funding, and a community that has over 85% of their people voting for trump doesn't believe that.
Kinda pathetic reflection of the community, that the post you're commenting on is one of the highest-ranked on Lemmy right now but no comment like yours is near the top of the comments
