NY Post? Like yourself knows not fact from fiction, shit from Shinola. The biggest takeaway from the SOTU for the demographic that is now lost to the GOP, seniors and those approaching SS and & Medicare eligibility, is that the too many Repugs are lying their asses off about their intentions for those two programs.

GOP senator 'handing a gift' to Biden by doubling down on Social Security-trashing plan - RawStory

Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) is on the defensive after President Joe Biden tarred the GOP during the State of the Union Address with Scott's plan to periodically "sunset" Social Security and Medicare — and traveled to Florida to give a roomful of people copies of his proposal to do so.

On Thursday, a CNN panel speculated that Scott's ongoing defense of his proposal is just making Biden's attack on the GOP that much more effective.

"When you defend, put yourself as the defender of extraordinarily popular public programs, that's a pretty good position to be in for politics," said analyst David Chalian. "It's not just haphazard that this has long been called the third rail of American politics, and Democrats and President Biden think Rick Scott went and grabbed that rail about a year ago.

They're not the only one, by the way. Mitch McConnell clearly thinks Rick Scott did as well, and that he's getting singed by it now. So, they're pressing this advantage. It is a politically advantageous place for Biden to be because of how unbelievably popular these programs are."

"Especially in Florida, where there's a huge elderly population that relies on Social Security and Medicare," agreed anchor Wolf Blitzer, turning to commentator Nia Malika-Henderson. "Is Senator Rick Scott essentially handing a gift to the President of the United States?"

Just when the Republicans thought they would get ahead, they open their mouths and make asses out of themselves. Social Security and Medicare, the Republicans are destroying themselves from within, they want to do away with it, but now their senior supporters are turning away from them.

THE PARALLELS ARE NOT A COINCIDENCE...

Glad you are opening your eyes, now if you only had half a brain you would realize why your trump was such a failure and Russian puppet. Thank you President Biden was using his decades of experience too solve all of the problems the Republicans and trump left. History is making a fool out of trump, just like anyone who once supported and voted for him. Fortunately not many still still acknowledge they voted for the fat ass orange clown. We do know you would never support such an incompetent fool
