1. Still waiting for their better deal than the ACA. nt

[whathehell]

5. Lol...Never wait for a "better deal" from Republicans

unless you are, at very least, a millionaire.

[redstatebluegirl]

2. Put a fork in him he is done.

[Caliman73]

3. NO. You can't

The only thing you can do to the New Deal to make it a better deal, is to fully fund it, and make it available to every American regardless of skin color, race, ethnicity, etc...

My guess is Pence has some stupid privatization scheme...


Same old shit from Conservatives. They never have anything original.

[whathehell]

10. They've been trying to destroy the New Deal

since that "traitor to his class" FDR, started it.

[Caliman73]

32. Yeah

They even went so far as to plot a coup. The Business Plot. They didn't even wait till the ink was dry to try dismantling it.

[Autumn]

4. Sure. Just like their fucking healthcare plan they were going to replace Obamacare with.

Any Day now. Fuck that douche if only Trumps mob had not been so inept when he sent them to take out Pence he wouldn't be talking about taking away the life line for millions of people. .

[C_U_L8R]

6. In other words, the plan is to kill Social Security and Medicare.

Jesus frowns on smarmy dishonest fucks like Pence.

[brush]

14. Social Security and Medicare...not welfare.

And Social Security is an earned, paid for benefit, not entitlement welfare.

[C_U_L8R]

17. Brain typo... fixing.

Thx

[Danmel]

7. He will reveal it in 2 weeks

[Hortensis]

8. He's been calling for "privatizing" SocSec, Bush II redux,

which itself was a continuation of decades of various efforts to destroy the national retirement program.

[bucolic_frolic]

9. Better for who?

Products are new and improved all the time, but they keep getting worse as the owners make off with the money from all the changes.

[Retrograde]

22. It improves the profit margin

I always say, when a marketeer says something is for the customers' benefit, what they actually mean is that it's better for the company's bottom line.

[gratuitous]

11. Why don't you lay out that better deal for us, Mike?

Give us all a good look at it, explain how it all works, how it will benefit more people and run as efficiently as Social Security and Medicare do now. Go ahead there, Mikey. Whaddya got?

[sakabatou]

12. They had years to come up with a "better deal"

Nothing has yet to appear.

[tanyev]

13. Yep. First priority is getting rid of SS and Medicare.

Then they figure they can take decades talking about how to replace it.

[bluestarone]

15. Gotta admit, The whole fucking bunch must be eating

the same BULLSHIT!

[brush]

16. Pence is a fool whose brain obviosly doesn't work rignt.

A good percentage of republican voters are on Social Security and Medicare and won't appreciate having their monthly income and medical coverage cancelled. And then there's the still backing trump, refusing to testify about when trump supporters were trying to hang him on J6.

Nuts.

[sarcasmo]

18. There is no "better deal." Destruction of all government programs is the GOP goal.

[maxsolomon]

19. The "Better Deal" is no deal.

If they've got a plan, it must be in the vault with their Infrastructure Bill.

[budkin]

21. LMAO... there goes even the minuscule chance he had...

POOR PENCE

[Cha]

23. Fuck you Dense Pence.. tell this

to Jonathan Karl who said PJB was over the top accusing gops of cutting SS & medicate.

Yeah, Fuck your mealy lip Service of a "better deal". . fucking guy..

[The Unmitigated Gall]

24. The republican't alternative to Social Security

Is a homeless elderly sleeping on a bench and eating cat food.

[Celerity]

27. And working part time till they drop dead just to buy the cat food stew

[ananda]

25. Gaslighting doublespeak: "better deal" for rich privateers...

and no one else.

[multigraincracker]

26. I'm old and I vote.

Tell gubement to keep their god damn hands off of my SS and MC.

[onethatcares]

28. Boehner has the plan in his binder

right behind the one that covers the pukes "healthcare for all" plan.

[LuckyCharms]

29. You're no FDR, Mike and

you kissed the ass of someone who would have delighted in your death on January 6.

Oh, and you're a stupid fuck.

[NowISeetheLight]

30. OK...

Let's see the plan. Not that you WILL do it... let's see it now. We know how well that's going to go. Crickets.

[JuJuChen]
