I really want to see how that would play out in rural America so desperately.
Seriously, this is the find out stage that rural America has been asking for for years, and surprisingly avoided so far.
It's obvious from this if it weren't already that Lutnick has never worked in a customer-facing position.
"Let them eat cat-food sandwiches!"
That’s a good one: a reference back to a famous quote to please the educated, crude humor to please the less civilized, memorable for all
This is how you know they have reached escape velocity and know they will never face another election.
But they might face people's justice instead.
Congressional and cabinet members wont complain if they miss out on breathing for a few minutes, according to me >:3
If they were to stop SS checks, they would lose so many voters that no Republican would ever be elected to any office anywhere.
Which is why we know that since they are actually talking about this, they dont need those votes, because they dont intend to ever have a fair election again, or maybe no elections at all.
I’m not sure anything would pry them away from the GOP.
Seriously, just seeing all the rural Town halls that overwhelmingly voted against their own interests, chanting things that run directly counter to their own votes.
CORRECTION: You won't HEAR them complain.
These fuckers are psychopaths!
Seems pretty unusual for politicians to be openly fucking seniors.
Yeah, usually they're openly fucking children.
Well maybe trump can make america great again and we can all go back to just bravely letting the awful people molest and mass-shoot the children, and leave the elderly boomers alone.
/s
They won't be able to complain because you've turned off all the phones and shut down most of the SSA branches.
Yeah people love it when you fuck with their money
'Where did you get all the money?” “The Government. I didn’t earn it, I don’t need it. But if they miss one payment, I’ll raise hell!”
Well Grampa Simpson more then likely didn’t need social security because of the pension he received after working 30yrs as a night watchmen at the cranberry silo.
according to this survey: in 2023 only 64% of retired people age 65+ received any income from pensions. I can’t he but think that number is probably inflated as they note “Sources of income include the income of a spouse or partner.”
But he DID earn social security
So he hopes they just starve and die quietly?
That's what they want for all of us who aren't "productive".
I found this out when researching care for my grandparent. You have to spend all of the money before they can be eligible for certain types of care. They make you get rid of it all or forfeit it.
Oh, he's STUPID stupid, got it.
No, he's malicious.
never attribute to stupidity, that which can be attributed to malice.
Not saying he isn't that too, just that his take is bafflingly stupid.
Donald: some of you may die. But that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
Yes because that's what boomers are known for. Not complaining.
Man, they even complain about it when it isn't even relevant.
The number of times I've heard "blah blah blah, my social security is my investment, blah blah blah, take it over our dead bodies, and we'll leave no inheritance behind" is too damn high
