Original Note:
The edited clip is misleading & missing important context. Trump’s message about protecting Social Security & Medicare is consistent with his previous comments on the issue as a candidate in 2016. Any “cuts” discussed involved cutting fraud & waste & not benefits. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/11/cnbc-transcript-former-president-of-the-united-states-donald-trump-speaks-with-cnbcs-squawk-box-today-.html https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3820987-trump-under-no-circumstances-should-republicans-cut-social-security-or-medicare/
