Summary
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, leading Trump’s “Department of Government Efficiency,” are pushing for $2 trillion in federal budget cuts, which could target Social Security and Medicare.
While they claim to streamline government, critics argue billionaires like Musk and Ramaswamy are unaffected by these cuts, which could harm ordinary Americans who depend on these programs.
Despite Trump’s repeated promises to protect Social Security, skepticism remains over whether these cuts will influence Congress, where voter opposition to reducing benefits is strong.
Critics call the department’s influence limited but politically concerning.
Hell yeah. This is what majority wanted let’s do it. Remove the guardrails baby.
To be fair, Trump promised to protect social security. Now he’s probably not gonna follow through on that promise, but even his supporters want it intact.
But then find a way to blame biden
It’s clearly Bidens fault for not putting protections in place when he had the power to do so.
They’d get immediately repealed by Republican Senate, house and Extreme court.
