Now that thing is vowing to SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY with fairy dust, apparently.



When we win I, as your President, will totally forgive ALL deferred payroll taxes with money from the General Fund. I will ALWAYS protect Seniors and your Social Security! Sleepy Joe Biden will do the opposite, he will raise your taxes and DESTROY our Country!


===========================================
I am so personally offended and disgusted that that thing polluted my state with his superspreader bullshit that I feel like I need to take a shower. Now I've got to be a fucking shut-in for the next 3 weeks just so I don't come into contact with any of those vile lemmings who insisted on following Dear Leader right over a cliff.

I need a drink.

5. Here Was A Chance To Put Trump & The Repugs On The Defensive Re: Social Security.......

There should have been a bunch of ads by Dems saying that Trump and the Repugs will destroy Social Security.

Instead - you get Trump to put out a tweet about SS - saying only he can protect SS and he accuses Biden will destroy it.

He beat the Dems to the punch and now Biden and the Dems will have to defend themselves.

I think this was a missed opportunity. Too bad.

7. trump probably doesn't give a damn about SS, but I'm not sure he has ever said he

wanted to end Social Security. He’s still an Ahole and worse.

Personally, if it weren’t for everyone freaking out, we’d probably be better off funding SS through general taxes, assuming legislation is airtight (and GOPer) tight. I know people will freak, but around 2032 or so we are going to see an automatic cut of 23%, maybe more.
