There is no "general welfare clause" in the Constitution. That is something the leftists use to support
their socialistic agenda.

Yes, I noticed that he said "General welfare phrase" not clause. I am not a constitutional scholar, so I don't know, but I wonder if there is some significance to his choice of words.

"There is no "general welfare clause" in the Constitution."

That's incorrect. See post #17 above, which cites Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution.
