TDS does not discriminate with age. It comes from watching main stream media. Fox News is the only treatment.

The Media is winning the fake information war. Many seniors I know are thinking the same thing. Old school folks always watch the national news such as ABC,CBS and NBC to get their info.

And it is not just Trump.

Seems liberal democratic elderly have the same problem with any GOP Pres. like W. I remember living in Florida when he became POTUS and many retires were freaking out about SS. Gore was their man.

Boomers. Lolz. Worst Generation Ever


Wrong.

I’m Gen X

Each generation has their problems. Boomers are better people than Gen X and Millennials.

Gen Z and Millennials that look down on Baby Boomers are ignorant.

They went through JFK, RFK, MLK, Nixon, Vietnam and the Vietnam draft, Korea, 2 to 3 hour gas lines, working 2 or 3 jobs, Cuban Missle Crisis, the height of the Cold War, interest rates at 18%, and much more. Most of this had nothing to do with the mistakes their generation made.

My parents lived in their first house for over 40 years. They bought it with a 36 year loan with 16.5% interest rate.

Boomers elected Reagan. Boomers raised their Gen X kids and their Millennial grandkids. Some Boomers are still supporting their Gen X kids.

Couldn’t imagine Millennials going through a draft to go Iraq or Afghanistan. There are a lot Millennial conservatives on this board that would be liberals.

Tell her it is true


Add that the only way to save her SS is to vote a straight R ticket. They won't cut anyone who votes straight R.

Fight fire with fire! :)

I have a friend in her early 70s is convinced Trump is planning to do away with ss.


I doubt she really believes that. People just have an irrational hatred of Trump and they convince themselves there is a logical reason for it, even if they have to make one up.

Is out of her damn mind about Elon and Trump shutting down SS. Good lord I’ve talked to her till I’m exhausted about this not happening. I guess the Libs are really good at scaring young and old people.


Here is the question you ask:

"Every time you have heard a Democrat say Republicans were going to end, or shut down, Social Security, how many times did it actually happen?"


Answer: ZERO


This one scare tactic should render those repeating it to be punched in the mouth. Takes a lot of class to scare Seniors with something you know to be 100% FALSE.

My 75-year-old mom only watches Fox News, so she probably hasn't even heard this narrative.
