Trump's campaign goes into damage-control mode after he suggests cutting Medicare and Social Security benefits
When asked how the US could cut spending and his outlook on handling entitlements like Social Security and Medicare benefits, Trump suggested cuts could be made to the programs, which offer guaranteed financial support to retired and disabled workers."There is a lot you can do in terms of entitlements in terms of cutting and in terms of also the theft and the bad management of entitlements, tremendous bad management of entitlements. There's tremendous amounts of things and numbers of things you can do," Trump told CNBC's Joe Kernen in a rambling response to the question that touched on the stock market, oil drilling, and his administration's response to the COVID pandemic.
All that money going out to ordinary people arouses the greed of Trump and his friends. They'd like to get a piece of it. And will, if he gets his way.
