Kamala Harris' Big, Fat Lie
Claim: "Donald Trump intends to cut Social Security. We need to protect our hard-earned cash from those leftist thieves!"
In the 2024 presidential campaign, the left is up to its old tricks, playing the scare card with granny's money. This time, it's VP Kamala Harris spreading fake news at a rally in Atlanta.
"Donald Trump intends to cut Social Security and Medicare," she bleated.
Let's get one thing straight: Trump has made it clear he's no socialist. He wants to protect our money, not steal it and give it to some lazy welfare queen. Unlike the Dems, he knows that cutting taxes means more freedom for Americans to spend their money how they see fit. The thought of big government getting its greedy paws on our Social Security is enough to make any God-fearing, gun-toting patriot reach for their rifle.
Here's the lowdown: back in the day, Trump flirted with the idea of cutting the fat from Social Security. Let's be honest, we all know there's waste there. But he quickly saw sense and realized the best thing to do is leave things be. In his own words: "DO NOT CUT the benefits our seniors worked for and paid for their entire lives. Save Social Security. Don't destroy it." What could be clearer than that?
The Dems like to clutch their pearls and cry about Trump's budget proposals that included cuts to Social Security. But these were focused on a couple of niche areas, not the main benefits that regular folks rely on. Let's be real, any good businessman knows you gotta shift some money around to balance the books, and that's all Trump was doing.
So, in conclusion, Harris' claim that Trump wants to cut Social Security is about as truthful as her claim that she's a fan of KFC. It's a load of cluckin' nonsense.
