    Cause it never was about issues, or being honest, as long as Trump continues to pretend he hates the people they hate, attack the institutions they despise, and offering scapegoats for that which they don’t understand, he’s their man, and that charade is one Trump’s years in reality TV has taught him well

    Can you understand the difference between Jan and 3 years? I have no trouble with that.

    Can you understand the concept of work, save, invest during your employed years?
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Perhaps they have no concept of being employed, Ms. Stretch.

    Try to read more closely, Marty.

    "If S.S. is your primary source of income, you are not living, you are existing."

    Do you see anywhere in my post suggesting that "seniors should discontinue existing?"

    Most definitely perhaps. LOL

    How do you take care of your family if you don't invest, Marty?

    Fartin' seems to be suddenly disinclined to challenge my (accurate) statement that Biden wanted to cut Social Security and Medicare, doesn't he, Earl?

    Social Security benefits are much more modest than many people realize; the average Social Security retirement benefit in June 2020 was about $1,514 a month, or about $18,170 a year. (The average disabled worker and aged widow received slightly less.)

    How do you afford books and music on $1514 a month, Marty?

    Yes, he does, Legion.

    President Trump has said, on more than one occasion, that he will protect SS, Medicare and Medicaid.

    Marty appears to be disinclined to answer inconvenient questions.

    And we all know Trump doesn't lie.

    The Washington Post’s Fact Checker documented 22,247 Trump lies during his first term, through late August.
