We are sick of having our seniors jerked around.
Either this is an assault, or it is a cynical attempt to manipulate public opinion. Either way, it is unconscionable.
In the worst case scenario, seniors are horrifically betrayed, violated, and assaulted by a Democratic President.
At the very least, we are being manipulated and propagandized to be grateful and consider it a great win if the President merely REFRAINS from one additional, vicious blow to the weakest among us, in the middle of a sea of other corporate assaults. In other words, the one percent cynically expect us to mistake the withholding of a contrived threat for actual representation and advocacy on our behalf.
That's not going to fly anymore.
This is about much more than Social Security
