Donald Trump warned Tuesday that if the Democrats don’t approve funding, there are dangers to the future of Social Security and Medicare.
Trump said at a press conference that when he asked Democrats for feedback on the funding bills, one said, “It means death.”
“There’s nothing about death,” Trump said. “Theirs is death because they’re going to lose Medicaid, they’re going to lose Social Security, they’re going to lose Medicare, all of those things are going to be gone because the whole country would be bankrupt, and you’re not going to have any kind of medical insurance.”
I wonder if this is partly why I see so much efforts whipping up one generation against the other. If you get zoomers all pissed off at some caricature of the boomers, they just might cheer at fucking over the old people (and their own future selves, too, but the anger will override the cognitive functions).
