Sleepy Joe has woken up from his slumber with a clear goal in mind: to take center stage tonight at an event to attack President Donald Trump.
The Democrat, who left office with abysmal approval ratings, plans to undermine President Trump’s efforts to root out waste, fraud, and abuse in the bloated Social Security system.
After retreating from public view since his January departure from the White House, Biden will appear at a disability advocates conference in Chicago.
His rare emergence comes despite his basement-level 39% favorability rating in January’s Gallup poll.
While President Trump has been working tirelessly to streamline government and protect Americans’ hard-earned money, Biden apparently cannot resist the opportunity to defend bloated bureaucracy.
The Democrat will speak at the national conference of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled (ACRD), where he is expected to push liberal talking points.
“As bipartisan leaders have long agreed, Americans who retire after paying into Social Security their whole lives deserve the vital support and caring services they receive,” stated ACRD executive director Rachel Buck.
Biden’s scheduled appearance with a supposedly bipartisan group of former officials has been criticized for being nothing more than political theater.
The Trump administration has made changes to the federal government, including terminating positions at the Social Security Administration, as part of broader efforts to drain the Washington swamp.
These reforms aim to protect beneficiaries and tax dollars by enforcing tighter identity-proofing measures and eliminating fraud.
The White House has repeatedly confirmed that President Trump’s changes to Social Security are designed to reduce waste and fraud, not cut benefits for deserving Americans who have paid into the system.
President Trump’s administration has emphasized that all changes to the Social Security system are being implemented specifically to ensure its long-term sustainability.
By targeting fraud and eliminating bureaucratic waste, these reforms will strengthen the program for future generations of Americans who work hard and play by the rules.
While Biden points fingers at President Trump’s efficiency measures, his own administration mismanaged the Social Security system for years.
Under Biden’s watch, Americans suffered through long wait times, erroneous benefit notices, and bureaucratic nightmares.
Now that President Trump is attempting to fix those problems, Biden suddenly decides to crawl out of retirement.
The timing of Biden’s speech is political. It comes as Democrats desperately search for issues to weaponize ahead of the midterm elections.
Having failed to win the trust of the American people during his tenure, Biden now aims to frighten seniors with false claims about their benefits being at risk.
