Project 2025 Contributor: Seniors Should Work Into Their 70s Like Trump
Predictably, Trump's Project 2025 isn't going anywhere, no matter how much they, including the felon, have been trying to spin it. There is an apparent overlap between Project 2025 and Trump's Agenda 47 campaign policy proposals. The Project's contributor, Stephen Moore, said the quiet part out loud when asked by host Dagen McDowell about the felon's post on Truth Social that states, "Seniors should not pay tax on Social Security," Media Matters reports.
Moore explained that since Trump, who is 78 years old, is still working, other people should be, too. If grifting is a job, he's "working." Trump is also working on his campaign to stay out of prison, but OK.
"Signaling a shift away from legislation signed by Ronald Reagan back in 1984 to tax income from that program," McDowell said of Trump's post. "Your reaction to this, Steve?"
"I've decided, I think it's a good idea," Moore said. "And the reason is, you know, seniors — and I'm 64 now, so I guess I'm almost eligible for Social Security."
Fact check for the dummy: An individual can receive Social Security retirement benefits at 62.
"We want people to keep working. We want to keep incentivizing people once they turn 65, or 66, or 70," he continued. "And look at Donald Trump, what, he's 70, I don't know, 70 something, and you know, he's working seven days a week."
