Social Security Cuts

[Baron2024]

Trump and his enablers have already signaled that they want to cut Social Security. This could be a winning issue for us. We need to reach elderly and senior voters in swing states such as Arizona and Pennsylvania. Seniors vote at high rates. We could swing the election to Kamala based on this issue alone. If Kamala and her allies came out every day and said to the media that Trump intends the cut both Social Security and Medicare, we would get a lot of votes. Also we should be doing targeted ads and mailings to seniors in swing states based specifically on this issue. With Reproductive Rights mobilizing women and Social Security cuts mobilizing seniors, we might have a chance to win this thing. Add that to Kamala's growing appeal to younger voters, Independents, and POC and we have a winning coalition that will work in the battleground states.

1. Kamala is already doing that.

6. Right

I know that she is. I just thought that we should amplify that issue more. Reproductive Rights, Protecting Social Security, etc. are areas that Kamala is already focusing on. I just thought that we need to maybe create ads based around these issues more explicitly. Trump is an utter disaster on these issues.

2. should reach out to more than just "elderly or senior" folk

it's more likely the younger generations that would be hit

3. Agreed

This issue cuts across a lot of different demographics.

7. Not just old older voters. SS provides benefits for families not yet retired (even if they don't know it).

8. SS cuts are definitely on the G.O.P. couch
