This week, Trump secured the Republican presidential nomination. He beat out over a dozen rivals to score this designation for the third time. He will face off against Joe Biden, in a rematch of the 2020 Election.

Biden is facing tough odds in his fight to stay in office. He has to convince voters that he can do better than Trump in his second term.

Lacking strong evidence, he has made wild accusations against the Republican, to seemingly scare voters. One accusation is aimed at retired Americans. But Trump just shattered that claim in a major vow to senior voters.

From Breitbart:
Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively on Wednesday evening that he will never touch Social Security or Medicare…

“I will never do anything that will jeopardize or hurt Social Security or Medicare,” Trump said. “We’ll have to [make cuts to the government] elsewhere. But we’re not going to do anything to hurt them.”…

“There’s so many things we can do,” Trump said. “There’s so much cutting and so much waste in so many other areas, but I’ll never do anything to hurt Social Security.”

Recently, Biden has once again claimed that Donald Trump and Republicans will cut Medicare and Social Security. Despite a lack of proof, Biden has even claimed Republicans would end these programs, which provide help to retired Americans.

Republicans have said just the opposite. And Trump made a vow that—while he will cut wasteful spending—he will never touch Medicare and Social Security.

Trump made that vow during his 2016 campaign—and made good on that word while in office. He did not cut back benefits in these two programs. And during his time in office, he increased payments via Social Security.

Democrats, on the other hand, pose a larger threat to these tax-funded programs. President Biden has repeatedly put the interests of non-Americans over citizens. His border policy has let in 7.2 million migrants—who are demanding government aid.

Biden has sent billions overseas to Ukraine and other nations, taking resources away from Americans. If anyone is going to cut Medicare or Social Security to help non-Americans, it certainly won’t be Donald Trump.

Key Takeaways:

• Donald Trump promised he would never cut Medicare or Social Security.
• This comes as Biden spreads lies that Trump will “slash” these programs.
• Trump has long vowed to improve Medicare and Social Security, not cut it.
