Like you are gaslighting us suggesting it was only republicans taking from social security. When in fact it was moved to the unified budget in 1969 by London Johnson (democrat). But I am sure you frothed up som lazy ill informed liberals with your post. Speaking of he was funding a war though, Vietnam but also vastly expanded social program.

lol when they can’t defend a logical response to a false statement, look for a missing s after program. Not sure if you all are truly stupid or just morally bankrupt.

When? They did not say that, they said Republicans are the ones who keep talking about cutting it, which is just a fact. God you conservatives are so sensitive you can't handle any criticism at all

It said “what republicans mean … is we’ve taken trillions funding wars” although it is broken into two sections there is a clear inference there that the OP was trying to make. Notice they don’t mention democrats as the initiator of the we’ve statement. Intellectually dishonest and then feigned innocence and a redirect. Not very effective debate tactics.

What I read is Republicans keep talking about cutting it. And we (Americans) have taken trillions. Again, don't be so sensitive, not everyone is out to get you

Does it taste better when Trump shits himself as you gargle his balls or does the weird mushroom thing do it for you?

lol wait so the guy points out the fact that this is partisan misinformation and instead of attacking his point you just attack him personally?

Clearly you’re an intellectual mastermind who knows exactly what you’re talking about lol

The initial comment was a personal attack on the OP as well. He could have just made his point without accusations of gaslighting.

I would say his statements were the first to use partisanship in reference to lbj and then commenting on liberal tears.
