    If he really thinks they won’t come for his Medicaid, Social Security, and federal pension, he hasn’t been paying attention.

    Not to mention economic uncertainty can eat into that money in other ways (like increased prices from tarrifs).

      He’s on Medicare, not Medicaid, but I agree. Trump doesn’t need their votes anymore, and Musk never did.

      He watches a lot of Fox News, so he thinks he’s informed, but he’s really just full of propaganda. At least at this point he knows better than to debate politics with me, so it’s pretty civil when I visit or call. But also on the rare occasion he decides to press a matter, he knows he can never win. I will bring receipts.
