Since Donald Trump is planning a smash-and-grab of the RNC, it's not too surprising that he intends the same for Social Security and Medicare. The disgraced former President phoned CNBC's "Squawk Box" and said that "there's a lot you can do in terms of cutting" Social Security and Medicare, programs he falsely referred to as "entitlements." Interestingly, Trump accused Gov. Ron DeSantis of planning to do the same thing he's planning. It's almost as if he's a big fat liar or something.

"So, first of all, there is a lot you can do in terms of entitlements, in terms of cutting," Trump told the CNBC host. "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."

President Joe Biden responded on Threads and Xitter:

Trump has said this repeatedly. This isn't the first time.

When Lumpy says something, believe him. For example, when he said he would be a dictator on "day one," Believe him. Don't vote for that clown and then act surprised about who he is when he repeatedly tells you exactly who he is.
