Vanity Fair: "Trump has told friends that gutting Medicare could be a fun second-term project"

Whoa:

Headline: Trump has told friends that gutting Medicare could be a fun "second-term project"

This headline, from Vanity Fair,1 isn’t another anonymously sourced whisper. It’s what Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming is saying publicly.

This is exactly what we said would happen when the tax handout to billionaires and corporations passed: That Trump and his Republican enablers would use the ensuing budget deficit as an excuse to do what they’ve always wanted: destroy Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

If destroying our earned benefits doesn’t sound like a “fun second-term project” to you, become a member of Social Security Works today to fight back!

We’ve seen this cynical Republican strategy coming, and we’ve been preparing since Trump was sworn in. But we’re going to need to go all out in the next 15 months to make sure Trump’s second-term project doesn’t come to pass.

Join today to EXPAND, never cut, our Social Security system!

Thanks,
