31. He can seriously weaken social security and Medicare
Mon Nov 18, 2024, 06:15 PM
Nov 18

That will end up killing people and hurting others
He can get rid of military disability compensation for retirees, it's right there in Project 2025.

He can fill the courts with ultra conservatives for a generation of not two.

He can gut the entire federal workforce.

He can gut 100 federal programs and policies.

He can deport or place into camps 10 million people or more

He can add tens of trillions to the national debt

He can allow Russia and China to take Ukraine and Taiwan

He can allow another pandemic with crazy vaccination policies

Those are just off the top of my head. Telling folks to not be so worried about that and more is, well, if I said what I really think I'd get banned.
