We should use the chopping block on him, and repurpose his wealth to fund government programs. Especially for repaying federal employees for this shitshow.

Seriously…. Why the fuck is this clown allowed to cut ANYTHING?
The moment he cuts a single service someone depends on, he should be sued into submission. How is this happening?

I sincerely hope these cuts do not happen, but if they do, I hope we see a massive "grey wave" of large scale protests from older folks who rely on these programs. They worked and paid into Social Security their whole lives and deserve that money.
The thing is, the elders have all bought in to this idea that there's no money for social security and medicare not because it's been whittled away and underfunded and means tested to death for forty years, but rather there's just massive, massive fraud, and everybody's stealing from social security before it gets to them. So, they're probably all cheering this push to cut entitlements because they think that all these fraudsters will be kicked off, and surely they won't be kicked off, surely their social security benefits will actually be a good amount once all those mooches are kicked off. When it does happen to them, and it will, they won't realize that it was by design, they'll all be stunned that Trump and Musk made this "mistake" and swept them up in the cuts.
And if we have elections again, they’ll thumb a ride from outside of their tent by the highway to catch a ride to the polling booths where they will vote for Trump’s third term? I’m thinking some of them will have to figure it out by then.
Imma be straight with you, dawg, my MAGA mom is still unironically, dead seriously convinced that Obama is the anti-Christ and he's going to come back and seize control of the government and launch a nuclear apocalypse literally any moment now.

No way, a horrible person admits they probably might do something horrible after establishing a strong track record of doing horrible things?! I am SHOCKED. Who could have seen this horrible administration known for doing horrible things doing something horrible like this?
"Admits".
Haven't demons like Paul Ryan had their entire political career motivated by ending Social Security? It's not like the Republicans' desire to kill old people is any secret...
You work until you die
Either the work kills you (no OSHA) or You work until you die from old age
There will be no retirement for the poors
While Trump has promised not to cut entitlement programs
And we all know how much Trump's word is worth.

So, do I get back everything I paid into it for the past 40 years? Is that part of the plan? If not, who gets that money, let me guess.

Elon Musk suggested cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid in a Fox News interview

Trump Administration Will 'Collapse' in 30 Days, Says James Carville
Carville advised Democrats to "play opossum" for now.
"This whole thing is collapsing. It doesn't need Elizabeth Warren in somebody screaming to pacify some progressive advocacy groups in Washington," the former top adviser to President Bill Clinton said. "Hold your fire. It's going to be easy pickings here in six weeks, just lay back."
I would have said that Carville was wrong, but if they do start taking big whacks at entitlement programs, this might actually manage it.
Lets see how the Trumpists react when they notice that their social security checks no longer come and the medicaid no longer pays for their vital medications.
It'll still be the fault of Democrats and the Trans/DEI agenda for burning all the money.
If their supporters were capable of logical thought they wouldn't be their supporters (not saying they'd be Dems, but they definitely wouldn't be supporting these fucks).

Oh okay. So where's my fucking money???
He should be on the chopping block
Then no social security tax? Oh I still have to pay that. Great.
Finally admits what we knew all along. I'm shocked...absolutely shocked...wow...if I could get anymore shocked I'd be like 5 steps down from a single eyebrow lift.
