Donald Trump'''s Budget Betrays His Pledge Not To Cut Social Security
Quote:
WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump’s proposed budget for next year would cut Social Security Disability Insurance, despite Trump’s vaunted campaign promise not to make any changes to Social Security.
A summary table indicates the Trump budget would cut disability insurance by $72 billion over 10 years, or about 4 percent of the program’s projected cost.
“It’s my absolute intention to leave Social Security the way it is,” Trump said during the presidential campaign, a promise he repeated several times.
Nancy Altman, president of Social Security Works, a nonprofit that advocates for expanding Social Security benefits across the board, said in a statement on Sunday that the budget amounts to “a flagrant violation” of Trump’s campaign pledge.

Not that another lie from Trump...will surprise any decent person.
Those that thought Trump could resist lying about 90% of the time...raise your closed hands.
Now punch yourself in the face with your fists.
