Go back to bed you miserable old manYes, Trump is going to take away Social Security.....FROM THOSE WHO ARE RECEIVING IT ILLEGALLY AND FRAUDULENTLY!!! These dumb s%its on this board just keep screaming that Trump and Musk are taking our benefits away from us when this is the reality. I don't want MY money being handed over to undeserving people receiving it fraudulently. Same goes for that waste of an agency USAID.
The Biden fascist dictatorship sure did leave this country a mess.
Another thread where not one leftist moon bat even attempts to comment. South African genocide ? Nope Moon bats funded. By thr dem party destroying Tesla dealerships and attacking citizens driving teslas. Nope. The incredible corruption. Associated with USAID that Both parties benefit from ? Nope.Let me guess. All of those illegal aliens voted for Communist Kamala. They should look at the voter rolls and remove those votes completely. Harris should have lost by 20 million votes.
You are a gullible cult stooge
Lots of allegations....no proof or evidence.....a Trump cult specialty.
Lol! My my pet rock has more brains than you. You, Joey, slick, and the Johnstown jackass must meet in a group and convince yourselves that you are somehow geniuses even though your progressive ways have been proven to fracture your party and lose you elections. It must be fun to lead a delusional existence!You are a gullible cult stooge
I wipe my ass with stooges like you, Gomer....and I'm a real Republican, not a RINO MAGA Trump ass sucking cult moron.Lol! My my pet rock has more brains than you.

I agree, we should lock up whomever was President when this program was created...it says here that the EBE program was created in 2017.Lots of allegations....no proof or evidence.....a Trump cult specialty.
Well first they dropped a bombshell that millions of 150 year-olds were receiving benefits. Without realizing that SSI payments end at 115 years old because of an Obama-era restriction. Then it was revealed that Big Balls, the grandson of a KGB Colonel, doesn't understand the COBOL code the government system runs on and therefore didn't know that incomplete or unknown birth dates default to 1875, which again trigger the automatic non-payment flag in the system.If it is true that there’s 72 billion dollars of illegal SSI payments paid out. How many years has this been going on? You can’t blame on the Biden administration only, this has to have happening for many many years through many different administrations. The problem to me is there was no oversight of what was going on at SSI with stupid people working there and no responsibility for their stupidity in the job.
Yes he is, that cutting of wasteful spending will put more money into SS, Medicare and Medicaid, the dems wanted to cut SS and blame the right. The dems wasteful spending would have cut into SS

Swervin,dems are pissed that their little pets, aka illegals, arent getting social security checks any more. that's why they are pissed..
If most dems know the solution to social security it should have been done. There was literally just a plant president who signed things with an autopen. Why was it not done?Swervin,
I'm a moderate Democrat. Like most, I want to protect social security for deserving Americans. It is easily saved by lifting the "cap" that currently exists...today, taxes stop being deducted at $176,100. Most sensible Americans agree that this cap should lift once again when the wage earner hits $400-500K, understanding that the couple making 200-300K with two kids and living in an expensive area aren't living high on the hog. Lift the cap and social security is...secure!
On a plane so my internet is wonky, but i'm pretty certain such legislation would have required Republican support. Primarily Democrats who support lifting the cap. Forgetting political affiliation for a moment, would you favor reinstating social security taxation at $500K? Seems reasonable to save social security?If most dems know the solution to social security it should have been done. There was literally just a plant president who signed things with an autopen.

Doesn’t seem unreasonable. But why (not you) the opposition by some to identify and eliminate fraud. Why the fear mongering that musk and trump are doing to cut as for seniors ?On a plane so my internet is wonky, but i'm pretty certain such legislation would have required Republican support.

I think it's true that SOME Democrats will look to criticize ANYTHING Trump/Musk do, just because of their general mistrust. The same is true of Republicans during the Biden era. Again, we all need to do our part to stop screaming at each other, to listen, and to admit that both parties are often wrong, and both parties do some good things.Doesn’t seem unreasonable.

solid posts. I think the issue is that you are a rare bird on this board ie moderate Dems. moderate Dems voted for Clinton like I did. Most Dems today or perhaps the loudest (the ones on this board) are far from moderateConfused. Are all Democrats fascists, or communists. Or both? This is exactly the type of absurd and incendiary language that further divides this country. It's unfortunate. Get a bunch of neighbors in a room, shut off social media, and the majority of reasonable people -- from both parties, can and will find common ground.
No. I prefer pro job creation policy that's aimed at 2/3rds of the workforce who isn't college educated. I want everything manufactured in America. Keep foreign product out.

Respectfully disagree, but you are of course entitled to your opinion. Have a good day.No. I prefer pro job creation policy that's aimed at 2/3rds of the workforce who isn't college educated. I want everything manufactured in America. Keep foreign product out. Tariffs, higher
We need more of this. I don’t fully trust musk motives but I’ve not seen much that he’s done so far that is bad. So as the saying goes judge him by the fruits that he bears. Let’s see how this ends up. Moreover at the end of the day it’s Congress that will have to codify into law or the budget the changes he’s identifying for there to be a lasting effect. And being the synic about both sides neither will do this because they both benefit from the waste and corruptionI think it's true that SOME Democrats will look to criticize ANYTHING Trump/Musk do, just because of their general mistrust.

If you lived near me, I'd invite you and some of the most ardent Trump defenders here for some burgers, hot dogs and beer. Bet we could find some common ground, and disagree without screaming at each other. I might even throw in some steak tips if it's going well.
Nice to be reasonable and able to just disagree. You have a great day as wellRespectfully disagree, but you are of course entitled to your opinion. Have a good day.
Just curious why would you be against having the US restore its manufacturing base ?Respectfully disagree, but you are of course entitled to your opinion. Have a good day.
We'll see how it all plays out. Trump worries the crap out of me...would be much more comfortable with a moderate D OR R, who is not so volatile and divisive. Question is...can anyone pull this country together (to a degree), particularly with all of the misinformation and disinformation pinballing around social media 24/7.We need more of this.
