Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday praised President Biden over his back-and-forth with Republicans on Social Security and Medicare during the State of the Union address one night earlier, saying that they walked into a “trap” he laid for them.

“Joe Biden was so deft. He let them walk into his trap. He rope-a-doped them,” Schumer told “Morning Joe.” “And now all of America has seen the Republican Party say, ‘No, we’re not going to cut Social security and Medicare.’ He did a service.”

During one of the most contentious points in the speech, Biden accused some Republican lawmakers of pushing to sunset the two entitlement programs, prompting head-shakes and boos from the GOP side of the aisle. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was seen visibly shaking his head against Biden’s statement, while Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) shouted that Biden is a “liar.”

You ever noticed everything with Schumer is a trick?

TRAP?

Biden looked like a complete idiot.

Unfortunately those GOP captured on camera looked like unruly children—at least that’s what I keep hearing from the Millennials who watched the clip on the news.

Uh, pretty sure comedy channel has one to many shoemurs already. Chuck, 🖕

I don’t think the Republicans had planned to anyway........

[mountainlion]

Propaganda about reductions medicare and social security is just a ploy to blame Republicans for not raising the debt celling and not support Janet Yellen and her FED ripoffs.

The definition of ‘rope a dope’ must be:

Stand there and lie unapologetically, then have your toadies go on TV and say how ‘deft’ you were.

Muhammad Ali was a Reagan supporter.

[ClearCase_guy]

Biden proved — with geometric logic — that the Republicans wanted to steal the second key to the social security lockbox.

“And now all of America has seen the Republican Party say, ‘No, we’re not going to cut Social security and Medicare.”

The left has been using that lying ass scare tactic forever......now they can’t......thanks to the “deft” Joe Biden.

Chuck the schmuck has so much blind hatred for Republicans he doesn’t see it......what a dumbass.

[The Antiyuppie]

Well, he’s right in that most GOPes in Congress are dopes.

[A Navy Vet]

Just shut up Chucky. Biteme couldn’t rope a dope if he had every calf-roping cowboy in the Rodeo finals. He can’t even control his own mind, much less corner someone politically. The guy is a lying idiot and you know it. He shakes hands with ghosts.

[eyeamok]

No, we’re not going to cut Social security and Medicare.

And they should counter that with: Instead we are going to strengthen SS by Eliminating ALL defined benefit retirement plans across the US that are not 100% fully Funded and roll all those people into SS and all funds shall be turned over to SS, there is no reason in the worlds taxpayers should be funding golden parachute retirements for civil servants. Then just to make it Fair, we are going to Mandate ALL Public Employee's Nationwide enroll in Obamacare for their primary health care coverage, then use that money saved to help shore up SS

RAT Dung beetles like Schumer and the Pedophile are good with dope.
