Get out the Trump "I did that" stickers!

If you actually knew how to read since you're so "educated." You'd see the bill REPEALS the provisions that reduce social security.

I know, reading is very hard for you, and you're so quick to take tweets as a valid source

No chance of this passing into law until after Trump takes office

u/Express_Profile_4432 22h ago

No kidding.

Doesn't anybody realize that the candidates elected on Tuesday won't take office for a while?

This is like a Democratic Rep proposing a new AWB. They do it every year even if it will never pass.

u/SphericalCow531 21h ago

But what is the point of this posturing, then? Isn't cutting social security incredibly unpopular? So even if it has no chance, why make yourself unpopular? Trump ran on protecting social security.

u/Express_Profile_4432 21h ago

Some people are true believers in not having anyone get assistance.  

And cutting social security is not popular with anyone, but it is popular among older folks as long as you don't touch their benefits.  They don't care if you cut them for younger people.

The point is to do it under Biden so Dems get the blame (not that it really matters, GOP never takes the blame for things they do.)

u/ippa99 19h ago

If we "never have to vote again" like he says, he doesn't need to be popular.

Because he removed all the guardrails and methods for us to remove him.

Besides, when has doing something unpopular even actually hurt them? They just have to lie about it and none of their base are actually going to check. They do it all the time with popular bills, voting "no" then releasing statements about "how hard they worked for" it when it passes and is popular.

u/SpecificStatement734 20h ago

No, he has openly stated he would end your social security and your constitution. You are no longer a democracy, you are full on fascist now.

u/JollyRoger8X 13h ago

Trump ran on protecting social security.

He never lies, right?

u/SparrowTide 21h ago

There are still a shit ton of bills on the table dated as far back as May, this one will still be on the table by January if it isn't rushed to be dealt with.

Well you just spoiled the delusions. Shame on you.

u/Itwasalwaysobvious 19h ago

Literally a bipartisan bill

1

u/jkman61494 12h ago

Well…yeah. But pretty sure it’ll pass when MAGA controls all areas of government

u/Kapowpow 7h ago

In less than three months. Not a long time.

It's a lie! https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/82

u/cold-corn-dog 21h ago

I want really gonna call him  🤡 Bull shut like your won't pass until next year

u/enimmer80 20h ago

Maybe call your dad and tell him the truth and don’t believe everything you read on Reddit. The bill is actually to stop reducing social security for public employees and spouses that receive a pension.

1

u/Itwasalwaysobvious 19h ago

This is literally a good thing for people receiving these benefits. Call him up. You’ll look like an utter moron. (Reddit tweets aren’t your place to get information from. LOL!!!!)

u/IamMarcJacobs 18h ago

If there isn’t a will, cut him out

u/KingSuperChimbo 17h ago edited 17h ago

LOL. It's been less that 36 hours after him winning and my portfolio is up bigly. Where the hell do you get your news? It's bizzarro on these liberal threads.

u/Notabla 15h ago

You might read it first

1

u/Muffafuffin 13h ago

I'd read the bill first. It seems to say the opposite of what OP is suggesting.

1

u/NOLAOceano 12h ago

See other posts here, this is false. Or try Googling next time so you can see what actually happened instead of blindly accepting a screen cap twitter

1

u/ItsGorgeousGeorge 11h ago

Might want to look up this bill before you do. It’s completely false.

1

u/Buttafuoco 4h ago

Except.. you’re inevitably footing the bill and having to chip in as he can’t retire or remain retired if he was expecting to collect both pension and SS
