Solution:

.,$norm $bd0j

Explanation:

.,$  - every line from current one till end of  file
norm - normal mode
$    - go to end of line
b    - go to start of word
d0   - delete  till start of line
j    - move one line down

RECAP

Ranges:

Here are the most interesting ranges you can use:

*    <number> - Any number <number> in your range refers to a line number.
*    . - Represent the current line (often the default range).
*    $ - Represent the last line of the current buffer.
*    % - Represent the entire file (same as 1,$).
*    * - Use the last selection you’ve made during the last VISUAL mode.

For example, using the command :d:

*    :1,40d - Delete line 1 to 40 included.
*    :2,$d - Delete every line from the second one till the end of the file.
*    :.,$d - Delete every line from the current one till the end of the file.
*    :%d - Delete every line.

:norm[al]

:norm[al][!] {commands}                 *:norm* *:normal*
                        Execute Normal mode commands {commands}.  This makes
                        it possible to execute Normal mode commands typed on
                        the command-line.  {commands} are executed like they
                        are typed.  For undo all commands are undone together.
                        Execution stops when an error is encountered.
