On the 90th anniversary of Social Security, President Trump said he made strides in preserving the program by rooting out fraud and abuse, including removing nearly 275,000 illegal immigrants from the system.

Who does Donald Trump struggle with in his approval ratings more than any other demographic? The plus 70 crowd. Why? Because they think he’s going to destroy Social Security. Get this, folks, he pledged to preserve Social Security. Social Security was projected to be insolvent by 2034. That is right around the corner. What does Donald Trump do?
