“Cut waste, fraud and abuse everywhere that we can find it, and there is plenty of it,” he said.

“Under no circumstances should Republicans vote to cut a single penny from Medicare or Social Security,” Trump said inTrump, who is running for president in 2024, said Republicans should instead focus on ending “left-wing gender programs from our military” and the “billions being spent on climate extremism.”

“Cut waste, fraud and abuse everywhere that we can find it and there is plenty of it,” Trump said. “But do not cut the benefits our seniors worked for and paid for their entire lives. Save Social Security, don’t destroy it.”

He may need it soon

Holy shit! For once the forked tongue speaks the truth.

First sensible thing he has EVER said

No, please try! 😅😅

...save the cutting for later, when it'll be easier.

Did the blind squirrel find a nut?

Rare Trump dub

Who cares what this idgit says🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even a person as deficient as Trump can see the pile-up of Boomers and Gen X around these programs. May be too he is worried about his OWN pocketbook.

I hate to say but he is right. I can’t believe…

Not because it's the right thing... it's because old Rs would actually have to open their eyes.

I guess he’s decided to run…he’s just saying this to get the votes.

...a clock is right 2x a day.

Trump has lost control of his cult followers.

Yet that is exactly what they want to do!

he's trying to sound like he cares

Some supplemental truths: *The MAGA mega churches & televangelists know precisely how much of their revenue comes from retirees & it's a big portion of the 100s of millions they bring in. *They've had Trump's ear for years because they give him chunks of it & publicly praise him.

People have really short memories. Trump was just fine with risking a default when it suited him.

The GOP is in deep denial about this. This is how he beat all their biggest names before and how he’ll do it again. His anti-liberal cred lets him attack from the economic left all day long and they have no defense because they actually are enthusiastic anti-lower class zealots

I mean I hate agreeing with the guy but cmon.

His cult have run off on their own without him. Like Nazi's running around persecuting everyone who disagrees with their igorance

Only thing we’ve ever agreed on.

Clever boy.

They're not taking his calls.

Like he cares...

Guess who collects social security and uses Medicare?
