Trump Voters Are Now Begging Republicans To Not Cut Social Security - Farron Balanced

[TexasTowelie]

"Be careful what you wish for" is a lesson that has been completely lost on Republican voters. Since November's election, we have seen countless examples of Republican/Trump voters freaking out over his proposed plans, but he was crystal clear about these plans during the campaign. Trump supporters are now panicking that he's going to cut their Social Security benefits and they are begging Republicans to not do this. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

1. Yes he was clear...crystal clear.

The numb nuts just thought he meant everyone else's SS and not theirs.

2. That's the key. Right there.

They heard about it, alright, but they were rock-solid sure it would affect somebody else. Or better yet, somebody in the demographic group they hated or looked down upon.

Somebody else. Not them.

Hello, rude awakening.

Its not just Social Security

Trump's team is floating the idea of having deposits insured by the Treasury Dept and not FDIC

Trump is self-deluded

Some of his followers are self-deluded
They believe Trump is some kind of protector
Cults of personalities sometimes believe this.
