....there are videos ALL OVER CREATION where they are literally SAYING it ie: "rip it out by the roots" etc.

They say: "Oh, that's not true! They didn't say thaaaat! That's just a lie!"

And WHEN (not "if&quot , MAGA/GOP cuts, guts, privatizes or abolishes THEIR and MY (future) social security & medicare, they'll blame DEMOCRATS.

That's their schtick.

And NO amount of video evidence will convince them otherwise. "Oh they're just throwing ideas out there!"

Oh HELL NO they are NOT. They are TELLING EVERYONE what they WILL do if in power. My MAGA relatives are living on SS & Medicare. You'd THINK they'd want to verify their facts. But .... NOPE.
