Can Trump Be Trusted With Social Security?

How? This is from October last year.

The amount of fraud in Medicare and social security is astounding... cut that and you don't have to cut a single dollar of benefit... That was Biden's job as Obama's VP to cut waste and fraud.... he fucked that job up too....
 
I have noted my solution on this board for a long time.

RaIse or eliminate the cap

Boom

Done
How much does that raise, and how much does it cost in additional benefits?

If you have no clue, you haven't proposed a solution, and you're just whining.

Eliminate the cap and it covers existing benefits as far as the eye can see
 
I trust Trump to do his best to end wasteful entitlement programs like this, but Dems will block him at every opportunity.
 
I don't trust Trump, but the good thing is, as a leader he has proven himself inept. All bark, no bite.
Why do you not trust President Trump? Why do you swallow what the legacy media and Democrats' propaganda tell you? He has a stellar record and was far superior to today's disaster. Why is what is happening today so attractive to you compared to the smooth-running government run by Trump?
 
Clearly, the “conservatives” who have been trying to kill Social Security for decades have been talking to Trump

One evening years ago I tuned into CNBC to catch some market news. Upon conclusion they aired a past showing of The Apprentice which had been on a few seasons, but I'd never seen it. I caught some episodes and my disregard for Trump stems from there.

Regarding trust, I wouldn't invest in anybody that uses the system to walk away from debt and then cavalierly maintains about being smart.

As for your smooth-running government, the nation was a mess during COVID and it was frustrating that Trump neither led, followed, nor got out of the way.

Now back on topic about fearing Trump doing something negative with Social Security, I think the issue is as lame as Trump's leadership ability.

Did Trump personally over turn Roe?


Did he get that two trillion dollar tax cut passed?

No. The people around him did and he signed off on all of it

He’d do the same here

You are adept at swallowing the Kool-Aid fed to you by the far left.

He hasn't walked away from debt. Two Casinos he owned in Atlantic City tanked when the economy and Atlantic City tanked. Two out of 500 or more corporations under Trump Empire control at any one time.

What is your solution to resolve this nightmare? There are not enough "rich" people to pay the unfunded liability.

China slams Trump's coronavirus travel limits: 'Not a gesture of goodwill'
By Joe McDonald, Sam McNeil | Associated Press
[...]
On Friday, the United States declared a public health emergency and President Donald Trump and an order barring entry to foreign nationals, other than immediate family of American citizens and permanent residents, who visited China within the last 14 days, which scientists say is the virus’s longest incubation period.

'Unfriendly comments'
China criticized the U.S. controls, which it said contradicted the WHO’s appeal to avoid travel bans, and “unfriendly comments” that Beijing was failing to cooperate.

“Just as the WHO recommended against travel restrictions, the U.S. rushed to go in the opposite way. Certainly not a gesture of goodwill,” said foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying.

WHO Secretary-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in Geneva that despite the emergency declaration, there is “no reason for measures that unnecessarily interfere with international travel and trade.”

Democrat Response to Coronavirus: End Trump’s Travel Bans on China, Iran
JOHN BINDER 11 Mar 2020 2:58

House and Senate Democrats are responding to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States by supporting measures to effectively strip President Trump of his authority to impose travel bans to protect American citizens.

While Trump has implemented travel bans on China and Iran — two of the most coronavirus-affected nations in the world — House Democrats are looking to roll back the president’s authority to enact travel bans from regions of the world.

Nolte: A Mere 8 Days Ago Joe Biden Was Still Attacking Trump’s Travel Bans
JOHN NOLTE 20 Mar 2020

A mere eight days ago, Joe Biden was still vocally opposing President Donald Trump’s travel bans from Europe, and even China, as racist. In other words, if Biden was the president, we can’t begin to imagine how much worse things would look in American today thanks to President Biden’s refusal to keep people out from the very same places where the Chinese coronavirus rages.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (KRON) – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was in San Francisco on Monday spending several hours visiting Chinatown to encourage people to visit the shops and restaurants there amid fears of the coronavirus.

Business in Chinatown has really slowed down over the last month, mainly due to concerns about the coronavirus.

Pelosi did a walking tour of the area starting in the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Shop.

She also visited several other businesses and talked to people.

Neighbors, including the owner of the cookie shop, who says the last month has been difficult.

“Business is slow. People don’t want to come, they are scared,” Kevin Chan said.

Pelosi also took this opportunity to encourage people to come back to Chinatown.

“You should come to Chinatown. Precautions have been taken by our city. We know there is concern about tourism throughout the world but we think it’s very safe to be in Chinatown and hopefully, others will come,” Pelosi said.

WATCH: NYC Mayor de Blasio Gets Nailed for Telling New Yorkers to Ignore the Wuhan Coronavirus
Beth Baumann
Posted: Mar 29, 2020 1:35 PM

On Sunday, CNN's Jake Tapper put New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) on blast for telling New Yorkers not to worry about the Wuhan coronavirus. Tapper played four separate clips of de Blasio encouraging New Yorkers to go about their daily lives, even as recently as March 13th, less than two weeks ago.

"In retrospect, is that message, at least in part, to blame for how rapidly the virus has spread across the city?" Tapper asked.

De Blasio instantly deflected.

"You know, Jake, we should not be focusing, in my view, on anything looking back, on any level of government right now," the mayor explained. "This is just about how we save lives going forward. We are all working – everybody – is working with the information we had and trying, of course, to avoid panic.

WHO haunted by January tweet saying China found no human transmission of coronavirus

The World Health Organization (WHO) is now haunted by a tweet it sent earlier this year when it cited Chinese health officials who claimed there had been no human transmissions of the novel coronavirus within the country yet.

The Jan. 14 tweet came less than two months before WHO declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic.

"Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China," the organization had said.

It also relied on information from Chinese health authorities who have been accused of obscuring facts and figures during the course of the outbreak.

Nursing homes have ‘no right’ to reject coronavirus patients, Cuomo says
By Bernadette Hogan and Bruce Golding
April 23, 2020 | 5:04pm

New York’s nursing homes weren’t allowed to challenge a controversial order to admit patients with the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Thursday — even though it’s been blamed for spreading the deadly disease among residents

“They don’t have a right to object. That is the rule and that is the regulation and they have to comply with that,” Cuomo said during his daily briefing in Albany.

New York’s true nursing home death toll cloaked in secrecy
By BERNARD CONDON, MATT SEDENSKY and MEGHAN HOYER August 11, 2020

New York’s coronavirus death toll in nursing homes, already among the highest in the nation, could actually be a significant undercount. Unlike every other state with major outbreaks, New York only counts residents who died on nursing home property and not those who were transported to hospitals and died there.

That statistic could add thousands to the state’s official care home death toll of just over 6,600. But so far the administration of Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo has refused to divulge the number, leading to speculation the state is manipulating the figures to make it appear it is doing better than other states and to make a tragic situation less dire.

“That’s a problem, bro,” state Sen. Gustavo Rivera, a Democrat, told New York Health Commissioner Howard Zucker during a legislative hearing on nursing homes earlier this month. “It seems, sir, that in this case you are choosing to define it differently so that you can look better.”

Hardly bad times for casinos

He just sucks at business
 
When SS had excess cash flow they invested in US Treasuries. Now that they are running a yearly deficits they are cashing in those bonds to pay the benefits that citizens were promised.
They took the money to cover the debt, it was laundering pure and simple. And you guys want zero changes, then you will complain when it collapses since you already know there is a deficit.
