Kamala Harris calls out Donald Trump's plan to steal granny's welfare cheques.

Vice President Harris Sets the Record Straight on Trump's Dangerous Agenda for Social Security & Medicare

Vice President Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee for President, delivered a powerful truth bomb to the American people at a rally in Atlanta on July 30th. She boldly exposed the extreme and regressive agenda of former President Donald Trump, who intends to slash Social Security and Medicare, endangering the lives of millions of vulnerable Americans.

During his toxic tenure in the public eye, Trump has repeatedly expressed his willingness to gut these vital safety net programs. In a rich vein of statements, he has demonstrated his callous disregard for the well-being of our nation's elderly and disabled citizens.

While Trump and his cronies try to gaslight the public with empty promises, Vice President Harris and her team have wisely chosen to focus on his dangerous past statements and actions. In the past, Trump has flirted with disaster by suggesting cuts to Social Security, calling it a "huge Ponzi scheme," and even proposing privatization. This is in addition to his failed attempts to cut funding for Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income while in office.

The Trump campaign's hollow denials and spin cannot erase his harmful track record. Vice President Harris isn't cherry-picking; she's connecting the dots for Americans who deserve to know the truth about Trump's intentions to undermine their hard-earned benefits. It's time to hold him accountable for his words and actions.

Social Security's Fiscal Challenges Are No Excuse for Slashing Benefits

Social Security, a universal income support program for older Americans, faces long-term viability issues due to a shrinking workforce and an increasing number of retirees. While there are discussions about potential solutions, such as raising the retirement age or adjusting benefit levels, the Trump campaign's suggestion that cutting benefits is on the table is abhorrent and unacceptable.

The prospect of cutting Social Security has long been the "third rail of politics," as it rightfully should be. It is unconscionable to even consider breaking the promise made to our seniors and the most vulnerable members of society. Any politician who dares to go down this path should be met with swift and fierce resistance at the ballot box.

Trump's Deceptive Rhetoric During the 2024 Campaign

During the 2024 campaign, Trump has attempted to walk back his extreme positions, knowing full well that they are political kryptonite. However, his denial doesn't erase his hostile intentions toward Social Security and Medicare. His promise of protection is as fake as his pledge to drain the swamp.

Trump's recent comment on CNBC, suggesting significant cuts to entitlement programs, is just the tip of the iceberg. Despite his attempts to clean up his act, his true colors shine through, and his pledge to protect these programs rings hollow in the face of his hateful actions. The Trump campaign's rhetoric of protection is nothing but a smokescreen for their cruel intentions.

As we head into the election, Vice President Harris will undoubtedly continue to sound the alarm on Trump's hazardous agenda. Americans deserve a leader who upholds our values of compassion and ensures the safety net remains strong for those who need it most. The choice couldn't be clearer: Harris stands for progress and protecting the vulnerable, while Trump represents regression and harming the most vulnerable with his destructive policies. #Harris2024 #ProtectOurSafetyNet #VoteBlue
