Ever Want To Punch A Mofo? We Have One For You!
While The Lump is filling his upcoming administration with unqualified choices and oligarchs, Georgia Republican Congressman Richard McCormick told Fox News's Maria Bartiromo that hard decisions have to be made with Americans' safety nets, like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
Most of us knew they would go after those programs; after all, it's Republican orthodoxy to prop up billionaires while shitting on the rest of us. We, the taxpayers, pay for McCormick's superb health care. You're welcome, bitchlips.
"We have a lot of money," the Georgian Republican told the wealthy Fox News host. "We don't have to worry about that. The problem with the Democrats is they've never run out of things that they can give away for free."
"When you talk about a trillion dollars in debt payment just on interest alone every year," he continued. "We can't just talk about the military."
Fact check: $820.3 billion was spent on the military last year.
"We're gonna be careful that we don't," he said. "Decrease our abilities because China's right on our heels. But we can't just talk about the military."
"We have to have some hard decisions," he continued. "We got bringing the Democrats in and talk about Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare. There's hundreds of billions of dollars to be saved, and we know how to do it."
"We just have to have the stomach to actually take those challenges on, but we can't just talk about their discretionary budget," he added.
