I'd like to believe that even the most Trump-adoring conservative will balk at Elon Musk simply taking their social security. And some will. But many others would gladly die for Trump and to realize Musk's vision of a more efficient and productive society. These people are in a cult. - ThreadSky

At this point I'm fine with them gladly dying for their Dear Leader, but fuck they are going to take a lot of innocent people with them

Without Social Security many of the Trump-adoring MAGAts will simply starve to death

I think the blowback would just be too much.

Remember how many conservative radio hosts died of COVID after spending months calling it a hoax and refusing to get vaccinated. Remember how the Trump plan to goose the economy during lockdown was "let your grandparents die."

Reason and sense have abandoned these people.

Also wonder if there are ways Trump can lighten the blow to his supporters. For ex, continue payments to people in red states and cut off payments to ppl w addresses in California.

Our government prints the dollars we use to pay our banks back & pay tax

Card dealer vs Card players

Currency issuer vs Currency user

Our government prints a 💵 first

Then it can tax it away

We Americans are a greedy bunch even if it’s 1200 a month in SS. People will not take kindly to losing this.

If it happens, guaranteed they’ll be prepped with excuses for how The Enemy did it.

Oh, I think it's unlikely that many of them will see their checks taken away from them.

I bet many folks that go after Trump and Musk will lose their benefits though. People's social media posts are easy to link back to individuals. I mean, it may suck for the Dave Smiths of the world though.

Okay, I’m on board now. Let’s get this ball rolling, people, no time to waste! Operation DeciMaga is GO
