Trump’s babbling henchmen hit the airwaves

Larry Kudlow and Kevin McCarthy went on TV today and babbled incoherently. And I do mean babbled. And I do mean incoherently:

How about this:

This is what Trump said exactly:

“If I’m victorious on November 3rd, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax. I’m going to make them all permanent … In other words, I’ll extend beyond the end of the year and terminate the tax.”

This means he’s terminating the funding stream for Social Security and Medicare.

Hey, all you seniors who love Donald Trump. Not only does he consider you all expendable (practically dead already) to the economy with COVID-19, he’s intent upon ending Social Security and Medicare.

Anyone who gets this “tax relief” had better save the money because they’re going to have to pay it back next year when they do their taxes if Trump loses. If he wins they’d also better save their money because all their older relatives will be moving in with them. Maybe Trump will let you write them off as dependents.

Honestly, I don’t know how serious any of this is. But if the performance of Trump’s henchmen this morning is any guide, neither does the administration. It’s just cray-cray…
