Anyone who thinks Social Security and Medicare are going to be ended is delusional. The programs may change, but they are here to stay.

Will not end but it is the benefit cuts to Social Security and Medicare that sparked worries.

I suspect that, between fraud, waste and other corruption, they can afford to keep us old geezers alive, if they weed even some of that out.

 

Personally, I'm looking forward to turning Musk and his AI resources loose to figure out where the money's actually being spent, and on what, and to whom.  And not just Medicare, Medicaid and SS.  Across, the board, including the military.

 

Up to now, the gub'ment IT guys have been eons behind the state of the art.  Probably as a deliberate strategy.  I'm hoping that ends with DOGE.

Well, YOU voted for him so let's see how you like it when the sheeet hit's the fan.

Let's know where you got your crystal ball, I'm sure that the overwhelming majority of people who voted for President Trump would like to tell you where to shove it.

You should apologize

1/ In his last presidency, he milked $240 million from American taxpayers by playing golf on his properties, then having his secret service detail billeted on said properties at an average of $800,000 each time. He played golf over 300 times.

 

2/ The poor saps who depend on social security and food stamps, of course.

 

3/ RFK is an antivaxxer, and antifluoride crusader. You might trust a guy who says a worm ate his brain, I don't. Crazy as a bedbug.

They’ll be interviewed on the TV vox pops lamenting “when Trump said that, I thought he meant others”. 

 

There's your problem right there. You still watch TV.

Perhaps you are not aware Trump plans to increase the military budget, by about $100 billion.

Kind of similar to what went down with Biden right ?

 

I,remember quite vividly how adamant posters like you were about how tippy top Biden was. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Biden's a felon as well as a liar and a "grafter" [sic]?!

You are right when you suggest that Trump is a grafter...much more honourable than being a grifter like Biden.

He didn't say that they did!  He referenced the majority of those who did vote for Mr Trump.
