Ask to post where Republicans said they were cutting SS and you get crickets but they voted for President Bidet.
I think it all came from Republican Sen. Rick Scott of Florida and his proposal to sunset all federal programs in five years.
Now he revised it to say “All federal legislation sunsets in 5 years, with specific exceptions of Social Security, Medicare, national security, veterans benefits, and other essential services.”
I think that is pretty much like saying nothing of consequence will really be sunset and all big government programs will go on into perpetuity until the government finally goes insolvent. Typical RINO caves under pressure from LEFTY kicking the can down the road.
That doesn't matter to LEFTY, just the fact there was a proposal to sunset all federal programs in five years gives them just enough fodder to feed the feckless proles some scary propaganda about some vast right-wing conspiracy to take their stuff.
LEFTY will always say government programs, especially entitlements are untouchable and cannot be reexamined, revised, or eliminated but only be made bigger if bigger buys more votes and power.
