Here’s the correct headline:
Trump suggests he may be open to entitlement cuts in future
President Donald Trump APPEARED to suggest...
This is the AP FAKE NEWS!!! Trump has stated over and over he would NEVER touch this stuff, do you believe Trump OR the LYING MEDIA!!!
Spending is outpacing revenue. Until that changes, nothing else matters.
I recall one of the electrician’s that worked for the Military District of Washington was a dedicated Democrat, but he railed against the concept of social security. He was clear in his desire to have his automatic deductions stopped and to be able to invest it in his 401K or a similar plan, because he didn’t trust the government social security program to have any money to pay him or anyone else when he retires in another 10 years.
nice pile of weasel words you dredged up here
$265B went to support illegal aliens. Want to cut spending? Start there. Let them self-deport back to their home countries to make an honest living there.
I think the government can darn well think of better place to start cuts. Your suggestions are a good start.
our country can spend approx $600 BILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR on illegals and all the costs they incur- but we can’t find money for our legal senior citizens and must cut?
Build the $25 billion dollar wall- kick out illegals, and save hundreds of billions of dollars EVERY single year- That’s the cuts we need- Cut ILLEGALS off our our gov welfare
Trap for Trump. We need entitlement reform, but Trump should not take the lead before the election. Both parties must be committed to reform.
This is horseshit propaganda. Trump would never suggest such a thing this is a made-up story to piss off people.
...appeared to suggest he may...
Spin by the media, why not just report and let people decide?
We don’t need to cut entitlements. Just get rid of the fraud. If you have 3 65” t.v.’s and a late model Cadillac Escalade, you shouldn’t be getting free government cheese.
I saw the interview. He gave his usual non-specific, non-committal answer to a reporter's question about "entitlements" — "Yeah, we could look at that at some point."
Then he talked about growth and tax cuts.
It was a nothingburger, and he said absolutely not a single word about "programs for senior Americans."
But hysterics gonna hysteria.
If the A:P couldn’t lie... then what would they sell?
Both are effectively means tested and progressive already.
Start with the obammy disability freeloader and illegals.
If he did say this it is good for him he cant run again. It will never see the light of day in one remaining term.
The article doesn’t support the headline.
Folks, we should not be getting in an uproar over this.
There are lots of ‘entitlements” which are expensive and not SS or Medicare.
Lets start with welfare and unemployment. With a booming economy there is no reason at all to pay lazy people to not work.
Hoping this is BS. I was forced to put into it and I plan to receive it.
