LOL. GOPs are flailing so hard about this. Steve Scalise says Biden is lying that GOPs want to cut Social Security. They just want to make a work requirement if you get a check! https://t.co/9CYkAd61li pic.twitter.com/p0ywN1JWqq

“The president, for a few weeks now, has been falsely saying that there are people that want to get rid of Social Security and Medicare. And it’s been inaccurate for a long time — and you saw last night when he tried to pin it on us,” House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., told NBC News one day after Biden's speech to Congress. “I just hope he stops going around the country telling that falsehood because there’s no truth to it.
“We want to strengthen Social Security by ending a lot of those government checks to people staying at home rather than going to work,” Scalise said, endorsing work requirements for benefits."A cut is a cut.”
And telling people who have paid into Social Security since they started working that now they have to work to earn those benefits? You mean you don’t want to get rid of the program, you just want to replace it with something entirely different?
