This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode the deficit.

3) Demand cuts to Social Security and Medicare.

4) Repeat.

Don't let them get away with it.

@rbreich But what if we actually did let the Republicans cut all of the Social Security and Medicare ... perhaps just in Republican dominated states?

@cpurdy @rbreich Crime rates would skyrocket. And when that doesn't work, lot of people would die. But the GOP would keep blaming the Dems, and their voters would keep believing them

@mindstorm8191 @rbreich Crime rates in Republican dominated rural areas are already through the roof, despite adequate supplies of hydroxychloroquine. 🤷‍♂️

In my one-time home state of Alabama, citizens have a greater than 1% chance of dying from gun shot, for example. Statistically, it's far safer to have served in Iraq or Afghanistan than to live in some parts of the USA 😢
