Friend,
Donald Trump just handed Democrats an issue that should end the entire 2020 election.
He just proposed cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid by more than $1.7 trillion—breaking one of his most famous campaign promises.
Going after senior citizens who always vote, just months before an reelection? That's political suicide.
There's only one problem: The corporate media is almost totally ignoring the story.
The 1% who own and operate the corporate media could not be more out of touch with the kitchen table concerns of regular people. Nearly three-quarters of Americans oppose cutting in Medicare and Social Security, but if you only got your news from the media elites on Morning Joe or CNN, you'd think that “entitlement reform”—their code for cutting Social Security and Medicare—is downright popular.
Common Dreams is not about to give Donald Trump a free pass for going after Social Security and Medicare. We covered it as headline news, and we'll continue to shine a bright light on the key issues that the corporate media ignores.
Will you make a donation to help fund our ongoing coverage of Trump's attacks on Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare—and all the issues that matter for the 99%?
