Let us not forget to keep reminding people that trump is planning to gut Social Security & Medicare if he's re-elected - and, that it's a particular goal of #Moscow Mitch.
Getting people to understand this is crucial.

On paper, #SocialSecurity has something like a $3-plus TRILLION surplus. But, every Republican President has raided it's coffers to pay off the national debt & cost of war.
People laughed when Al Gore said he wanted to put SS in a lock box. Look what happened next:

Reagan started using SS to pay for the Republicans excessive borrowing.
It's why SS is now taxed twice - once on the way in, and once on the way out.

The term "entitlement" is completely wrong for SS & Medicare.
We paid into them the same as if we put savings in a bank, & they accumulated interest.
They're 2 of the few things the government makes $ on, but since the government has borrow SS dry, they want to get rid of it now.

If this is true, not only is it possible (probable, if trump gets a 2nd term) that we'll lose our righteously earned SS & Medicare, but we'll also be paying for the tax cuts to the 1% & to Big Business - after many declare bankruptcy, and lose their homes: https://www.thebalance.com/who-owns-the-u-s-national-debt-3306124
Don't think this isn't already planned - and the Party of trump will do anything to keep trump in office.
We've already seen the fruition of this, as the 1% & Big Business has made a huge amount of $ during the recession. https://www.salon.com/2020/01/01/trump-administration-is-quietly-gutting-tax-law-to-give-big-new-breaks-to-corporations/

And, there's this. W/ most of the trump administration's posts empty, temporary appointments, & or filled by trump sycophants, if he retains the presidency, he can flip right into full gear of ripping the US off, & very likely creating a dictatorship. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2019/12/mother-jones-podcast-aaron-glantz-reveal-homewreckers-book-swamp-trump-housing/
