Summary
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick claimed that most seniors would not complain if Social Security checks were missed, suggesting that only “fraudsters” would object.
His remarks sparked backlash as Social Security is a critical income source for millions, including 15% of women and 12% of men over 65 who rely on it for 90% of their income.
Amid rising concerns, Maryland Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander criticized acting SSA head Lee Dudek for threatening to cut IT access, escalating fears of disruptions.
Oh, he’s STUPID stupid, got it.
Yes because that’s what boomers are known for. Not complaining.
Seniors could be dying of hunger on state capitol steps and they would be saying “it’s just a few bodies, they were old anyway”
I wish we could say that about Donald and the rest of the old fucks in Congress
So he hopes they just starve and die quietly?
Donald: some of you may die. But that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
So, who’s gonna tell Lutnick that voter turnout for those age 65 and above is 75%+?
And it’s not like old folks like to complain about things just for the fuck of it, right?
Lutnick and Trump are going to discover why they call Social Security the third rail of American politics.
No theyre not, these people will probably still vote for them
They won’t be able to complain because you’ve turned off all the phones and shut down most of the SSA branches.
There are a lot of armed seniors out there. Give them nothing to lose. Go on.
Yeah people love it when you fuck with their money
It’s obvious from this if it weren’t already that Lutnick has never worked in a customer-facing position.
I have a relative that lives off social security. They have no other income will literally die quickly without social security. So yeah I guess they can’t complain if they are dead can they.
I really want to see how that would play out in rural America so desperately.
Hahahahahaha that is probably the Number One Thing they would complain about you dummy
When he gets taxed 99.99% to cover the new social security he better not cry or complain because I know my grandmother wouldn’t.
These fuckers are psychopaths!
