  1. They sure want to cut covid spending since it's over don't know why you're continue to spend billions of dollars on it

  2. Rick Scott defrauded Medicare over $Billion$ in fake medical billing scheme.
    He should be locked up in prison.
    He's a fraudster

  3. Senator Rounds is still for cutting Social Security and Medicare. He's just changed "cutting" to "managing".

  4. Rick Scott is NOT interested in fixing Medicare or Social Security. Yes, they need to be fixed.

  5. Please rephrase "entitlement" plans, these plans are paid into by the workforce and employers, the only investment plans for many once retired on fixed incomes.

  6. This is nothing but another scare tactic from Democrats That Republicans want to get rid of Social Security. Rick Scott is only one man with a dumb plan. It takes more than one Lawmaker to change a law and Chuck Todd and the rest of these clowns know it . Example, Their are a handful of Democrats that want to defund the police. So I guess that means all of them are for it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UoCf6NU3uY Go to 25:18 in Senator Joe Biden's Comments in the Senate . He calls for a freeze on SS, Medicare and Medicaid. So again I guess the Democratic party was for this. Stop with the Political BS Democrats

  7. Republicans are going to lose seniors

  8. Republicans need to replace the money in them that they stole from them during Bush Administration

  9. So are Lindsey Graham entitlements must go away, Mike Lee my objective is to phase it out conversation with Donors, Matt Gaetz wants to reform Mike Pence wants to privatize Republicans lies

  10. It’s not an entitlement. It is an insurance policy that I worked fifty years to purchase.

  11. Calling social security entitlement is BS like the government is giving us something when we paid into all our working lives and when they raised the age for full retirement the less time you will get it before you kick the bucket !

  12. This media people still believe a lie of Biden, a headline of truth but the whole contents are lies. .

  13. The Biden administration is a thorn in the side of America. They can't even keep r airspace safe. Their open border policies have emboldened r enemies to push the limits. Biden is sleeping comfortably with out a care in the world cuz everything's DT'S fault.

  14. Corporation Sinema will do nothing to improve Social Security for the people. Remember that she denied workers an increase minimum wage to $15 !

  15. With their immature and their treasonous approach to everything, l wonder who the Republicans are actually trying to convert? A 500lb naked lady is more appealing than today's republican party.

  16. Want to see how ineffectual seniors are going to react. Just you guys hobby horse on up the chain of command,and wait for your smugness to hit you in the teeth. Live,love, learn … it will annihilate you. We are real, invisible,viable,beautiful,confrontational,people who raised you.

  17. As usual the treasonous republican party, is f-ing things up for the democrats to come along and clean up after them.

  18. Hello America, You need to get your HOUSE in order and STOP the petty in-house bickering and fighting!!! A HOUSE divided shall not stand!!

  19. Social security only taxes up to 150k per year so even Billionaires pay up to that amount. SS needs to be adjusted so the Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Musky Space man should pay their fair share based on the % earned.

  20. It's easy. Tax the rich. Keep withdrawing Social Security regardless of income. The rich won't miss it, and it will keep Medicare, Social Security, and welfare for those who need it funded.

  21. The Dispatch editor is wrong. No one on the panel fact-checked him. Learn policy more deeply, panelists; don't be Democratic Party reluctant to dust-up w some privatizing Conservative.

    Or, does Chuck Todd get his panels to limit their words, as time spent on complex policy is stupidly shallow?

  22. Never thought i would see a standoff between mitch McConnell and Skeletor… i have never heard about a more strange time in our history… in or out of a history book… what is going on… everything is going bizarro…

  23. Biden CRUSHED the GOP on Social Security and Medicare.

  24. What are those things on her eyes? Looks quite fuzzy.

  25. I still want to know who Rick was paying that missing campaign money on his offshore Italian cruise.
    Could that be asked?

  26. They been going after Social Security and Medicare Medicaid for years. Remember this👉 February 2005 – Republican President George W. Bush outlined a major initiative to reform Social Security which included partial privatization of the system, personal Social Security accounts, and options to permit Americans to divert a portion of their Social Security tax (FICA) into secured investments.

  27. Democrats Greatest Advantage: Simple minded republicans. 😂😂😂

  28. It was hilarious at the SOTU when Biden tricked the GOP circus into PUBLICLY agreeing to not cut social security. He baited them and waited for their trashy outburst then dunked on them 😂😂😂

  29. RICK SCOTT MOVING FAR AWAY FROM FLORIDA I DONT BLAME HIM WASHINGTON IS NICER GOOD LUCK MR< SCOTT GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

  30. SS IS NOT an "entitlement"… it's our F'in money and no person will ever live long enough to recover what they paid into it..

    and if you die before retirement, well it's just an extra lifetime tax

  31. And JOE is a gift to America's Enemies..RINO McConnell hates all Conservatives Equally..JOE,McConnell,Xi are all old good Business Partners..

  32. He's no gift to anybody. One man. Lmao NBC the bought and paid for liberal media. Like the rest of the liberal media ABC, CBS, CNN. All jokes. And full of paid trolls on here.

  33. Florida produces more nuts than oranges.

  34. Terrible, right up there with pelosi ripping up trumps speech copy. Are rich folks that don't really need social security, like a pelosi,schumer, mcconnell, or this overpaid roundtable, still allowed to collect?!

  35. It's too bad Joe Biden has to lie as much as blatantly is he does,, it's even worse that the legacy Media and the soft-headed motors continue to believe his lies it's even sadder still that they cover up for him.

    But hey,, after the weight pelosi tore up the State of the Union address standing behind the last president,, thanks for setting the standard.

  36. I don't think Rick Scott came up with this plan alone. The Republicans were in on it. Why else would he feel so comfortable creating a pamphlet to hand out? I hope voters tie it all together and not think it's just the Scott plan.

  37. 25% of the current national debt was caused by one person in only 4 years, whereas the rest, 75%, of it took 200 years to accumulate. Trump is such a destructive entity.
