Trump Just Admitted on Live Television He Will 'Terminate' Social Security and Medicare If Reelected

Trump said he will terminate Social Security?

 

no nation has. most every nation has it

the trump virus (the vaccine) isn’t out yet...will be before the year is up

 

That isn’t what he said though.
He said if elected he will “make permanent cuts to the payroll tax”

 

At minimum he indicated he would make permanent cuts to the funding mechanism and his words could have been taken as terminating the funding mechanism because he no spek good.

 

yes he wants these permanent so employers and employees don’t have to pay them back after the holiday! congress has to do that and shouldn’t have a problem since dems supported it in the past

 

geez dude for 5 months!!

 

New Zealand would like a word — and virtually every nation is doing better than we are.

 

That isn’t what permanent tax cuts mean “if he is elected”.

 

No, his words could be taken like that by you and others because partisan hatred.

 

I heard him announcing it and that's what I made of it and that's what the WH says............end of story.

 

hard to say since they aren’t testing like we are

 

Or because of basic literacy...

 

because the holiday wouldn’t expire until after he’s re elected and yes permanent certainly means. making this holiday permenant

 

When someone says they will make payroll tax cuts permanent you take them to mean it as temporary?

Fascinating

 

that’s required to read your bias source...but one only has to listen to his speech to understand he wants to make this holiday permanent

 

yeah because he was talking about his 5 month holiday in the EO he had just signed and announced

 

Ignoring that he cannot legally do this — making the cuts permanent does not mean waiving deferred the deferred taxes.

If someone says “I am going to permanently cut your pay” do you believe that means it is temporary?

 

he can’t legally make them permanent...nobody suggested that. he’ll need congress..and the dems have supported it before so if they stop playing politics with the virus...they should it it again

 

My first sentence was that the source was biased but that the quote was real.

Again, if he would have said “we are going to try and make this deferment of these payroll taxes where they do not have to be repaid with the help of congress” you would have a point.
But he didn’t.
He said permanent payroll tax cut

 

yes you fell for fake news. that’s your own fault the president has been warning you about that

yes he wants to make this holiday permanent so that we don’t have to pay it back next year

geez this has been explained over and over

 

Yes, your mental gymnastics has been regurgitated over and over. It still ignores the direct quote from the president*.

He did not. Rather he has via Executive Order just cut the rev/enue stream funding SS.

Lately Presidents are like Kings with the Executive Orders. This how Republics die.

 

No he wasn't.

“If victorious on November 3rd, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax,”

That interpretation is trying to cover up a huge ****ing deal. He does want to define SS. He has made his intentions crystal clear.

 

I am going to give you credit for being correct that the payroll tax goes to the General Fund and then to the SS Trust Fund. I find it hard to believe that the money spent on Benefits (not operations) is actually appropriated. If you have proof of this please post it thereby saving me from finding and reading an SS budget request. If what you are saying is true Social Security is even more of a scam than I thought it to be. These special security IOUs are a BS con job on the taxpayer.
