IS TRUMP REALLY DOING AWAY WITH SOCIAL SECURITY? FIND OUT THE TRUTH
President Trump suggested his decision to defer payroll taxes for some Americans via executive order could become permanent, saying it will have “no impact” on Social Security benefits.
“This will have zero impact on Social Security,” Trump told reporters on Sunday before boarding Marine One. “We protect Social Security.” . . .
Kudlow told CNN’s “State of the Union” that the president will protect Social Security and Medicare after Trump vowed to make permanent his coronavirus executive orders’ cut in the payroll taxes, which help fund the programs.
CNN’s Dana Bash pushed the White House adviser, asking if Trump can protect the programs “and cut payroll taxes at the same time.”
“When he referred to ‘permanent,’ I think what he was saying is that the deferral of the payroll tax to the end of the year will be made permanent,” Kudlow said. “It will be forgiven. The tax is not going to go away.”
In an attempt to bypass a deadlocked Congress, on Saturday Trump signed four executive actions — including one that postpones the collection of payroll taxes from Sept. 1 through Dec. 31 for individuals earning less than $104,000 annually, or less than $2,000 per week. . . .
Currently, all employees and employers pay a 6.2% payroll tax on wages capped out at $137,700. An employee earning $50,000 per year, for example, pays $3,100 in payroll taxes.
That money goes toward specific programs such as Social Security, health care, unemployment compensation and workers’ compensation. Workers also pay a Medicare tax of 1.45%.
Defenders of Social Security were quick to criticize Trump for suspending the taxes, suggesting it was part of a broader initiative to gut the social program. . . .
We must be careful to not start believing lies, but to have discernment with these issues. Be sure to share this article with your friends!
The order is technically a deferral of payroll taxes — not a suspension — meaning that the taxes will eventually be due at a later date. However, Trump has pledged to pursue a permanent cut to the taxes.
“If I’m victorious on Nov. 3, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax. I’m going to make them all permanent,” Trump said during a Saturday news conference. “In other words, I’ll extend beyond the end of the year and terminate the tax.” . . .
Kudlow added that he think’s Trump’s “intent” is “that we will take any steps possible to forgive this deferral. That’s what he was actually saying. We will protect Social Security. We will protect Medicare.”
“I think he meant the deferral would be forgiven,” the White House adviser responded. “I think he was saying that the savings on the deferral will be permanent. He did not mean that he was eliminating the Social Security tax.”
The president signed a series of executive orders on Saturday, including one that permits employers to defer payment of payroll taxes through 2020 for employees making less than about $100,000 annually. Trump then committed to make the cuts permanent if he is reelected.
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden criticized Trump for that commitment, saying it would “undermine the entire financial footing of Social Security.”

My understanding, from a business standpoint, is that when you say payroll taxes, you are referring to that deduction that is deemed for the IRS, our federal tax deduction. Our Social Security tax deduction goes to the Social Security Fund to be distributed as Social Security Payments. There have been many calls to audit the IRS, to investigate exactly where all of the collected taxes are going, etc. The two funds are completely separate. At lease when the President says “Payroll taxes” he would be referring to the deduction that is aimed at the Federal System. There is also a state tax deduction that is decided by individual states. The President has no control over that. President Trump campaigned on looking at the Internal Revenue Tax System as it has no transparency. That is just wrong! Remember President is a business man, and Joe Biden doesn’t have a clue.
Obviously you haven’t a clue. Look at how Bush laws crippled the post office. You are the perfect example why people shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
Do you mean the hoax that got him impeached?
Is that why he is streamlining the post office by removing sorting equipment and appointing post master general who would gain monetarily by the failing of the post office.
I can accept wrong doings from both parties but you and many are fanatics.
Russia paid bounties for our soldiers to be assassinated and have yet to to be punished. No other president in American history has chosen our foe/enemy over our own.They are not our friends. Thats why he has Attorney General who is not fighting for us but is an extension of Trump and doing his bidding. Firing the several southern district of attorneys who were investigating him. This started before Barr. Forced resignations, firing etc. This man is like a Mob boss watching out for himself and family.
This is definitely criminal behavior and attempt at cover up. I am not bashing all Republicans now I have to because they are not doing there jobs defending our constitution. How that tax break for the rich? Helping you out alot?
How about using DHS FEDERAL AGENTS to attack our own people peaceful protesters in Oregon step closer to autocracy.
You apparently like to led.
No people can remain free if they become wicked and immoral. When a society decays to the point where people fear for there lives and there property, the demands for a police state have always been inevitable.. Ben Franklin once served as our post master general. Go on defend the immoral president
correction southern district of new York attorneys
you like to be led
Can’t fix stupid
yes he is America is being raped and pillaged. We wouldn’t have social security if it had been privatized as planned by GOP before stock market crash. If ypu can dismantle United States post office without a word from GOP to do there job. Then you can do anything. Silently allow and let autocratic want to be Trump run us into the ground. Hippocrits
the only raping and pillaging is being done by the democrats. nancy pelosi stole money from social security to pay for that hoax impeachment. trump never said anything about doing away with social security. you and others really need to listen to what he says instead of believing everything that fake news and the democrats say. the democrats have been raping and pillaging social security for the last 50 years like it was their own piggy bank. as far as the postal service trump never said he was dismantling it. but the postal service has been failing for years. the postal service ought to be run by private enterprise and not by the government. that department has been run by the democrats and like everything else they touch is a disaster and a failure but like everything else. but they will point the finger and blame trump for their incompetence.
Look up Postal Accountability and enhancement act of 2006 Passed by a Republican-led Congress and signed into law by President George W. Bush, the PAEA gave the Postal Service new accounting and funding rules for its retiree pension and health benefits. Up until 2006, the USPS funded those obligations on a pay-as-you-go-basis, pulling out of its pension fund and adding to it as retirees’ costs came in. But the PAEA required the Postal Service to calculate all of its likely pension costs over the next 75 years, and then sock away enough money between 2007 and 2016 to cover most of them.
Eventually, the burden became too great, and the USPS began defaulting on the PAEA payments in 2012. But the damage was done. The Postal Service lost $62.4 billion between 2007 and 2016, and its own Inspector General attributed $54.8 billion of that to prefunding retiree benefits. Without the PAEA, the Postal Service wouldn’t be doing stellar. (Though you could plausibly blame many of its remaining struggles on the Great Recession.) But it probably would’ve spent at least part of the last decade making comfortable profits.
“The Postal Service’s $15 billion debt is a direct result of the mandate,” the.
Republicans are good at taking a dump on your lawn and then blame the democrats
You eat it up like candy
Do you really accept a habitual liars words over facts? He says alot of things doesn’t he? We as Christians should not accept a corrupt liar as president
Republicans not defending our constitution! Do you mean that they are not defending your democracy? How about Barr firing the district attorney’s who were investigating Trump ? You failed to mention what and why they’re investigating. Remember Mueller’s investigations? You failed to mention the outcome of that. “There was no Russian collusion”! Why are you trying to deceive the readers of this article? Many of us know the facts because we carefully observe the difference of each media sources by comparing and contrasting what many representatives say. I and many watch the difference at a hand held flip or touch of a screen in this age/era. So easy to find the correct information in this age/ era. People are deceived because they are gullible and fail to seek for the truth. A social agenda is to control the people. We already know and are educated and can understand “ Where there is more government there is less freedom and safety for the people” it’s as simple as that. I was a Democrat when I cast my vote at 18. Now I see how the democrats have battered our freedom and safety through our constitutional amendments. If you are going to tell a story please be honest and tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, may God help you.
I didnt make this up..
Senate bipartisan report found Trumps 2016 campaign eager to accept help from foreign power.
“Taken as a whole, Manafortes high level access and willingness to share information with individuals closely affiliated with the Russian intelligence service, particularly kilimnik and associates of Oleg Daripaska represented a grave counterintelligence threat.”
The GRU (Glavnoye Razvedyvatel’noye Upravleniye) is the main military foreign-intelligence service of Russia.
“While the GRU and wikileaks were releasing hacked documents, the Trump campaign sought to maximize the impact of those materials to aid Trumps electoral prospects”
Donald’s Trump campaign chairman was in regular contact with Russian intelligence officer. Providing him secret information including polling information
When trump fails to take action when he is provided intelligence information on bounties for American soldiers Thats more than collusion its treason. They go with evidence.
If you love your children appoint someone who will protect there planet. Money money money
Trump Administration Approves Plan for Oil Drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
How about renewable energy would give people jobs you know who gonna kill this with there money they will get more. So crooked so crooked he even wants to reverse stark laws he is a criminal the list is too long but that his MO and strategy. Keep them busy on all fronts while I go rob the other two stores
Holy Father,
Thank You for this article. Thank You for YOU ARE.
Thank You for the privilege to pray.
Thank You for the forgiveness of sins that You give thru Jesus Christ. Let’s learn to forgive others who wrong us.
Keep us humble at all time. Always put our trust in You.
Your will be done in this matter.
In Jesus’ Name, we pray that You will give President Trump discernment and wisdom in this matter. Bless him with protection and drawing closer to You.
Thank You, Father. Amen.
MY CONCERN IS- WILL THAT MEAN THAT I WILL NOT BE CONTRIBUTING TO SS? I AM 63, I WANT TO BE ABLE TO GET AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE WHEN I RETIRE.
uring a news conference Wednesday, he insisted he could eliminate the tax if he were reelected, and do it without undercutting retirement benefits or greatly adding to the deficit. He said economic growth would offset the revenue losses.
TRUMP: “At the end of the year, the assumption that I win, I’m going to terminate the payroll tax … We’ll be paying into Social Security through the General Fund.”
THE FACTS: Trump, in effect, has endorsed defunding Social Security by not providing an alternative source of revenues.
He also pointed to a manufacturing boom during the coronavirus pandemic but there isn’t one.
A look at some of his economic claims:
TRUMP: “At the end of the year, the assumption that I win, I’m going to terminate the payroll tax … We’ll be paying into Social Security through the General Fund.”
THE FACTS: Trump, in effect, has endorsed defunding Social Security by not providing an alternative source of revenues.
The risk is that this could destabilize an anti-poverty program that provides payments to roughly 65 million Americans. It also could force people to cut back on the spending that drives growth so they can save for their own retirement and health care needs if they believe the government backstop is in jeopardy.
A 12.4% payroll tax split between employers and workers funds Social Security, while a 2.9% payroll tax finances Medicare. These taxes raised $1.24 trillion last year, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Over a 10-year period, Trump’s idea would blow a $16.1 trillion hole in a U.S. budget that is already laden with rising debt loads.
Trump last week announced a payroll tax deferral through the end of the year, part of a series of moves to bypass Congress after talks on a broader coronavirus relief bill that has stalled. He says he will eliminate the tax with the help of Congress. Democrats have described that idea as a nonstarter.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Thursday suggested to reporters that Trump misspoke when he said he would eliminate the payroll tax if reelected. She said the president would only push to make the payroll tax deferrals permanent.
That claim has little basis in reality.
Trump on Wednesday said at least four times that he would end the payroll tax. The president added that the tax would be eliminated after the “beginning of the new year,” while the deferral only applies to the closing months of 2020. Trump said his planned payroll tax reduction would be a “number that’s bigger than any of the numbers we talked about.” A typical family would get back $5,000 or more, Trump said.
That average is so large that it suggests Trump either wants to eliminate the payroll tax or he did not understand his administration’s own policies.
TRUMP, asked how the General Fund can sustain the payments: “We’re going to have tremendous growth. … You will see growth like you have not seen in a long time.”
THE FACTS: It is highly unlikely that economic growth would be enough to offset the loss of the payroll tax.
When Pat Robinson ran for President in the 80s he told everyone back then this country can not afford to have Babyboomers retire. He said in 2010 million will start Social Security for the next decade & beyond. If we don’t do something now, they will break the bank. Of course as usual the Government blew it off the way they blow off Ron Paul today. We are approaching 30 Trillion in the whole/Red. That would destroy any country, now with this COVID 19, it’s like we can’t win for losing. God left it up to the Church to shorten this virus, but we the church have been so spoiled to eat, drink for tomorrow we will (have our best life now) as the prosperity message goes. I think we better look this Nation over real good & see if we like what we see? God has given us Months to get to know him & seek him at a personal level if you still fill good about what you see (you need to reboot). We need to stand in the gap for our Nation, we need to be gatekeepers, we need to be the watchman of our cities. They can be destroyed if Satan has his way, wake up Church. This is not a vacation from Church, this is a wake-up call for the true church to stand up & say not in my city. Not in my country, not on my watch.
Amen!
Amen!
It’s hard to justify if President Trump is doing right or wrong since the government made laws when President Johnson was in office to defer social security monies into general funding. Maybe what Trump ought to do is demand the government to repay that relocated monies back into SS and continue to make the proper monies stay within that SS as deemed by President Roosevelt back in the 1940’s.
God! I hope not! I’m on Social Security Disability myself, and my mother is receiving Social Security retirement!
Payroll taxes are withheld from you pay, Social Security Taxes, L&I taxes, retirement 401 K deductions etc, etc. All decrease the amount you receive in your payroll check and you set the number of exemptions or dependants you claim. This is the amount that is a set aside that in many payroll checks will act like a savings plan when April 15th comes. Always has been, and is in no way part of the Social Security or Medicare funding. Unless the Congress or Obamacare has messed with these calculations. Fake News to upset to voters. Like many here that have knowledge about payroll accounting and paying employees we need to be praying that Truth always comes to the surface and politics and Fake News is fact checked! The volumes of pages in Obamacare and the thousands of pages added in regulations to it, are way too much for me to digest, as my vision is not stable enough most days to weed through my mail, but praying for those that are knowledgeable in tax law need to be speaking out and making this understandable to the normal voters.
Excellent explanation for payroll taxes. I didn’t do near as good a job explaining. Thank you.
You’re so very welcome. I’m still doing payroll, and my husband and I both have been in accounting for over 20 years.
I’ve worked in a Senate workgroup, and Thank the Lord, I hope I never use politically correct jargon, as I think it is a way to further separate us all from using tact and good manners, and treating others as you would have them treat you.
Rejection is something we can pass out, but to truly treat each other with respect and love is much more important.
Hi, Pastor Karen! It is so good you are here on this site. God bless you and your family. This is Steph.
Thanks, so much Steph, nice to see you here as well.

Thank you for your prayers and taking time to read what I wrote. I am not blaming just one person but I just have been trying to point out the obvious.Trump is simply not fit to be president for so many reasons. One is he is self serving, puts Russia interests above ours and this is fact based. But yet still people defend him to a fault during covid he tries to get rid of Obamacare when we need it the most. Who does that? Also so racist that the kkk don’t wear masks to hide there identity. Blatent comfort knowing they have the Green light. He has no foundation in Christian values and lies to get Christian support its not ok.
correction no job no insurance
We need social security it should actually be expanded. What’s wrong with that Jesus helped the sick the poor. We can actually have medical care for all there are poorer countries than us that do it. It hasn’t taken away theirfreedom there actually happier. I know also from experience

So sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. Not far to single out one person, as it took a lot of Democrat’s and Republican’s not reading the Obamacare Bill, and then a lot of Department heads to mess it up even more writing implementation regulations.
When Trump came into office he was faced with Democrat’s that hated him and didn’t want him there, and to be honest a great number of Republicans that didn’t want him there either. The American public deserved better, and needed more at that time.
I’ve worked on Senate Work groups in my State and the are just like what he faced, resistant to any non-politicians on the group.
Like I had to do was learn the ways around them so I could represent those I was sent there to represent, it’s a hard road to get through to those that will listen, and help you navigate, so as hard as it is to navigate through the insurance companies, unemployment etc. it is just as difficult and truly a learning experience if you can live through it. If you are a Christian you pray yourself through the frustration, and the awful people you meet on the way, but blaming any one person isn’t helpful, but you must start local and move your way up and pray you can find someone that will take pity on you and help you navigate it all.
In this State we have the right to die laws, and their goal is just to get rid of those who complain, and find fault, and call it an expected outcome when you die in their facility. God took care of me, and absolutely no weapon formed against me prospered. I did have to have three eye surgeries, and I’m still in a wheelchair, but I’m alive today by the grace of God, and my claiming every day that No weapon formed against me could prosper. I pray that your eyes are opened and you can hear and understand the message I’m sending. Forgiveness will heal all.
Federal withholding tax can be suspended without it affecting Social Security or Medicare is my understanding. That is the way it was when I did the payroll books for my husband. They are 3 different departments that money is taken out of payroll for and applied to.
Hope this helps understanding a little.
I believe this to be correct.
You are correct as I explained at the top of this discussion. However, there is a threat to the SS Fund and that is the millions of Americans who are not paying the SS tax now due to unemployment or shutdowns of their businesses. There seems to be so little understanding of how our system works. As people retire, they are always outnumbered by younger generations that are continually paying into the SS Fund. So money is replenished at a higher rate than being distributed. That is why a country that is operating well under a system can never be shut down without dire consequences. It needs to stop now or we will go into complete freefall. People need to stand against the crisis upon us. We can handle this flu but we cannot keep the America we know with the extreme measures taken especially by our Democratic states. To discontinue federal tax payments to the IRS would be very helpful to citizens at this time.
Thank you for more clarity on the subject. I agree.
Oh, yes. And as I read this article, I am reminded of the question: “Who’s going to build the wall?” The reply “Mexico”! The question was asked more than once and the same reply was given. Mexico is NOT building the wall. Where is the funding coming from, I ask. Yes, we need to pray for discernment. Fake news? Conspiracy theories?
Just like the tax comment has been misleading to many, President Trump talks in a business language that some misunderstand. Recently the President pointed out that with the new trade deals completed with Mexico, it does provide us more money to pay for the wall. When he made the original comment he did not expect to be handed cash from Mexico. He knew that all of our previous trade deals with countries were actually draining our American wealth, and he knew how to use leverage to correct it. Every country that has fallen to Communism before us, had a propaganda spreading media to convince the people that their committed and honest leaders were liars and cheaters. This is happening here, now. Keep this in mind, it’s the most important thing you can do for our future. Get the truth from people who love our country and do not want to see it fail, do not listen to the Left. That’s why they are called the “Left”. They no longer know what is “right”. They have “left” all common sense behind. They do not care what the rest of us will be “left” with. And in the end, they will take all that you have “left”. May God bless and save the United States of America!.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOR THE GREAT THINGS HE IS DOING IN AND FOR AMERICA!! BLESS HIS HOLY NAME!!!
Oh, I forgot. Seems like a great number of Christians have left as well. God spoke of this in His Word. We want God to bless America, but we are allowing laws to be passed that directly oppose His Word. Not enough space to name them. These are the things that are concerning. There is coming a day of accountability and it does not look good for America. Sure, economy and all those things are important, but, what is in our hearts is what matters most to God. That is what is going to last.
Thank you God that Trump will not be getting rid of SS or Medicare. The mainstream media is out to destroy whatever Trump does and they will not listen to anyone who has a different opinion than their plans to destroy this president who stands up for You our God. Bless him, protect him and give him Your Wisdom to say those things for which they cannot dispute just like Jesus did in confounding the Scribes, and Pharisees. As your ambassador I Bind the false narratives coming from those who proclaim lies about the president you have anointed to expose the corruption in our country and I loose the Truth to all who have ears to hear what the spirit of Truth reveals in their day and night watches. May your will be done here on earth God as it is in heaven— for your glory and honor. In Jesus name Amen
Amen
OH Father, please help our President, too much lying and twisting of his words all the time. Encourage his heart
and protect him and his family!
This is him he is manipulating an using the Christian vote let’s pray for change and get him out f of office because he is hurting our country. Then he can possibly reflect. His life is consistent with no apologies and revenge he has verbalized this..as well as stating he is never wrong…Biden did serve America his whole life and paid taxes. Opposed to Trump.
Trump signed executive action suspending collection of payroll taxes. executive action suspending collection of payroll taxes. It is nothing less than a declaration of war on Social Security and Medicare. The payroll tax funds those two vital and beloved programs. When you suspend collection of the revenue that funds those two programs, you endanger their viability.
The Director of Cybersecurity for the United States, Christopher Krebs, issued a statement about Russia, China, and Iran meddling in our elections. Much disinformation is coming from these foreign countries in an effort to destroy our nation.
We really need to be vigilant about who to trust as a news source.
Father God, please intervene against those people who spread disinformation. Reveal the truth for all to see and hear and understand clearly.
We thank You for loving the United States and working to make us truly United again.
Thank You for mercy, and for hope and faith that Your righteousness and justice will again be the prevailing force in our land.
In Jesus name we pray and believe. Amen.
He meant exactly what he said while he was signing those Executive orders, that he was making it possible for the employer to defer payroll taxes through 2020 for the employees, which has nothing to do with Social Security. The Democrats are spinning it as they have everything else including the statement they make about Biden’s pick for VP, that she is a moderate, which is for from the truth. Just check her record.
She was attorney general for state of California. She is definitely not a moderate.
She was also district attorney for San Francisco. During / after housing market crash she fought big banks and got billions more for Californians during foreclosure crisis housing market crash getting 25 billion for struggling homeowners
DO NOT VOTE DEMON RATIC THEY ARE FOR ABORTION SOCIALISM-COMMUNISM MAXISM . THEY ARE ANTI EV CHRISTIAN JUDISM ANTI ISRAEL ANTI MORAL AND YOU NAME IT. I PRAY THEY GET SAVED BUT I HOPE THEY LOSE EVERY ELECTION. THEY ARE EVIL AND HATE OUR FREEDOM AND OUR CONSTITUTION. AND SOME CHRISTIANS WILL STILL VOTE FOR THEM BECAUSE THE BELONG TO SOME LABOR UNION OR THEY THINK TRUMP IS RACIST. BUT IS A PACK OF LIES FROM FAKE NEWS.
I agree with Robert in Jesus Name!
Trump politicizes questions of anti-Semitism and policy toward Israel. By smearing their political opponents as anti-Israel and anti-Semitic, they create the false impression that all criticisms of Israel are anti-Semitic. Unfortunately study after study shows that the vast majority of today’s violent anti-Semitic incidents in the US originate from the far right
We saw it in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017, where white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and Jew haters chanted racist and anti-Semitic slogans, wore uniforms with swastikas, and killed a counter-protester. This is where white nationalists brandished torches and chanted anti-Semitic and Nazi slogans, including “blood and soil” (an English rendering of the Nazi “blut und boden”) and “Jews will not replace us” — all crafted to cast Jews as foreign interlopers who need to be expunged
Trumps use of anti-Semitic stereotypes has emboldened Jew-haters. He verbalizes, encourages, enables, tolerates, winks at, and makes excuses for anti-Semitism, most notably when he said that some of the Nazis marching in Charlottesville in 2017 were “good people”.
Father I plead the Blood of Jesus over my President Donald J.

End Censorship, Bless Free Speech, Free Internet, Salvation of Big Tech & Media (2 Thes 3:1-3)…
Father, we know freedom of speech, the press, internet, social media and honesty in dealing with the masses is of much importance to You. Thank You for strengthening righteous reporters and helping those that are lost to repent (2 Peter 3:9). We long for unbiased news, freedom of the internet, lack of censorship, accurate reporting & free and open journalism across the nation and world (Prov 25:25). We ask “newscasters” would not bear false witness, relate hearsay, gainsay truth & forward outright lies (Ex 20:16). We pray for repentance & reformation in news agencies, big data (FAANG — f@cebook, @pple, @mazon, netfli#, g00gle), and government in restricted areas. May reporters, big tech CEOs and their attorneys be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim 2:1-5). Remove those who are not going to be saved (Ps 68:2). Grant mercy on the in the masses in the meantime (Matt 9:36) and give us the gift of discerning of spirits (1 Cor 12:10). May falsehood not cause any of these little to stumble (Matt 18:6, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:2). Hold back the powerful delusion (2 Thes 2:11) and let not people trust in any lie (2 Thes 2:11). Let free speech, democracy and freedom of the press run swiftly throughout the offices and quickly across the airwaves, internet and various forms of media throughout the world (2 Thes 3:1-2). Keep us and religious sites from the evil one as well, and strengthen our resolve in these matters (2 Thes 3:3). Thank You in Jesus’ Name
Father, we ask You would refresh and guide President Trump as he has been working very hard under constant attack for 3 1/2 Years. Bless Mike Pence, their families and staff, overrule the world, subdue the flesh and restrain the devil.
Give President Trump, The Vice President, The White House Staff, Kayleigh McEnany, Attorney General Barr, Michael Flynn and All in others in Washington that have suffered defamation of character wisdom, protection, peace and rest. Grant them “a tongue and wisdom which none of their adversaries can gainsay nor resist” (Luke 21:15). Deliver them from the evil one (Matt 6.13). Thank You in Jesus’ Name
I believe and trust President Trump. He has accomplished more for us the American people and more for our country that any other president. He ALWAYS has the interest of us the American people and our country at heart! He pushes forward and continues even with the many threats he’s had on his life.we need to ask ourselves this question.. does it make sense that someone who has done nothing but good for us would all of a sudden turn around and do something bad to us?… that’s what the negative fake news wants us to believe because they know that united we stand and divided we fall.lets choose unity and continue our support for president Trump in knowing that he truly cares about us and our country! Lord,we thank you for leading and guiding President Trump and all who work with him according to your will,giving them your warfare strategies and keeping them several steps ahead of the enemy at all times. We thank you Lord for exposing the enemy and for leading them as sheep to the slaughter with no resistance and totally surrendered because they are bound through our prayers and by the blood of Jesus and the power of your word! We are more than conquerers through you! The enemy was defeated at the cross and has to obey your word as we speak it! There is NONE greater than you Lord! You are the Creator of all things! If God be for us who can be against us? There is NOTHING too hard for me saith the Lord!the things that are impossible with men ARE possible with God. Instead if listening to lies that lead to fear, let’s pray and hold up our president, his allies, and all their families every day and rest in the confidence that God is in control and that our prayers are being answered because He is faithful to perform His word!..not one jot or tittle will fail!! We love you President Trump and thank you for all you have done, and are doing!🇺🇸❤️
I believe God is leading President Trump. He is a smart man, and he makes good decisions, thanks to God’s guidance. I believe President Trump has the USA’s best interests at heart. I will continue to pray for him and for Vice-President Pence.
President Trump is an American. He loves America as do I. With the help of the Lord Wisdom will show him how to handle this.
The Social Security program was gutted years ago by the representatives in Congress who spent tax payer money, dedicated to Social Security, to help insure their own favor with their constituents. There is an organization, whose name I can’t remember, who keeps an annual account of gross mismanagement of public funds. The results are appalling – a complete waste of millions of dollars every year.
Our Congressional representatives, in general, no longer recognize their mandate as “servants of the people”. Our current president should not be taxed with the need to “fix” the lack of effective, fact-based, reasoned legislation that comes or does not come from the legislature. The president’s job is to affirm or deny the legislation as is reasoned to be in the best interests of the people of our nation. President Trump is doing “yeoman’s service” for us in covering up for the lack of action by the Congress.
We the people are the ones at fault, as we have been content to “let the gov’t. take care of it” so I can enjoy pursuing “my goals”. We have been lured into laziness and apathy as regards the use of our money and the policies that we have allowed to be put into place. The question remains, “How can we recover from this?” Only our GREAT and MERCIFUL GOD can bring the wisdom and restoration we need. Our part is to repent and do the things we did at first – in service to HIM and in service to our country that HE mercifully established.
Abba Father, the warfare from the enemy against our nation is relentless, but YOU ARE GOD! Use these times of unrest and darkness to bring in a mighty harvest to your kingdom. You are not willing for any to perish. You crushed the head of the lying serpent at Calvary, he is a defeated foe. We pray for those who sow discord and lies to advance their political ideas. Scatter the enemy and bring glory to your name. We pray for authority over us to rule by your ways and not their own. For your people, we/me, who are called by your name, we humble ourselves/myself and turn from our wicked ways. Lord, we confess we (I) often look to you just for my own benefit, for my pleasure and comfort, and not to seek your kingdom. Would you forgive me of this?! I don’t want to be this way. Help me to seek you first and then all those things will be added. Forgive me for relying on government laws and those over us more than on you. Return me to my first love, the love I felt when you first found me and washed me and clothed me in your righteousness. Help me not to respect people or the praises of people more than what you say of me. I need you Lord more than ever. We need your grace and mercy. Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord to you, in Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
I trust President Trump. He was chosen to led this Country and if he makes a mis-step, God will correct him. God has a plan. President Trump and all true believers are following The God plan. Trust and obey for there is no other way. God is in control and is using President Trump and his gift of discernment to see between the lines of deception. Fear is from the devil. Do not fall for the lies!

Our President is working way beyond what we see and know. For the people. Not the DS. There’s much he can’t reveal yet. We must trust God that He truly is working behind the scenes. In a very LARGE way!
As usual the mainstream media has taken what President Trump says and misconstrues what he really said. I agree that reform needs to happen, we have way too much government to contend with. My Grandmother had been saying this very thing since the 1940’s until her death at 95 years of age. I do not believe that Social Security needs to be cut, but so many social programs do. We pork barrel so many things that are not necessary, and really important things get cut. So I trust our President to do the right thing. WE are a greedy people and expect the government to pay for our greediness. So I also support term limits, our nation was never meant to have career politicians, as we do today. I also know, Donald Trump our President of the United States is not our savior, but he certainly has been put into office and power of the greatest country of the world, for “such a time as this,” by God Almighty and we pray for his re-election.
I have worked for sixty years. Government never asked if I chose to pay into Medicare. It was taken as is m social security. Our taxes pay for planned parenthood. DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD.That will put money into the economy. I have never taken unemployment. God provides. Am I missing something?
I wish my president would be clearer in his statements. If it is clear there is no room for speculations. Why give the opposing enemy room to twist statements. I pray for my president, cabinet, and America daily. Gods will be done.
Yes father help us not to believe lies
Lord God we are deceived in so many ways. There are wolves in sheep’s clothing, there are even sheep looking like wolves. I pray wisdom and open eyes as we approach the upcoming election.
Many are the ways of the enemy, and truth is not one of them. I don’t like to hear others saying the president meant this or that and all the “I think he was saying” statements in this article.
Please Lord give us discernment.
I pray for revival in this country and across the globe.
In the mighty name of Jesus.
Amen
I heard Trump say at a news conference yesterday his intentions for cutting the payroll tax will end after he’s elected or to mean at the end of this year. This is for the purpose and I believe an incentive to workers who are not receiving unemployment benefits and to stimulate the economy. I believe he knows what he is doing. Let’s pray the Lord protects the election and that those called by His Name, will pray and know the truth. Let every false report be mute and the true reports be revealed. God gives His people discernment so they know how to pray. And He calls us to pray for our leaders that they know the Truth and not perish.
“Let God be true though everyone were a liar” Romans 3:4 (ESV).
Lord, we repent of allowing a godless govt to be self serving. We repent of allowing an administration to give the Muslim Brotherhood such a stronghold over our nation. We thank You for sending President Trump and his family and this cabinet for such a time as this. We thank You for exposing the evil that has been prevailing over the nation and we feel its heaviness. Lord, hear our prayers. Open the eyes of Your to see the good of these policies. Expose the lies of the media. We pray Lord for You to send strength, peace and protection to our President. Thank You Lord for the wisdom of President Trump. Thank You for exposing those involved in trafficking, and for their assets to be taken to fund our govt. We pray Your justice, and Your standard of righteousness over this nation. In the name of Jesus we pray for those control by demonic beings that rage evil and hate. May they be made free by the blood of Christ for Your Glory. Amen
I trust him. I believe he really cares and has no desire to hurt those who depend on social security. Probably many of you have heard, like me, many individuals who know him personally say that he is kind and compassionate. Let’s vigilantly pray for our President and believe the best about him. He needs at least some of us to do that. His spirit surely picks up the love we have for him.
Agree!
President Trump is working around the liberal House who want to make permanent the $600/week being given to people not working during Covid19. How many young people do you know who would get out and work if they can live on permanent vacation with that kind of mailbox money??
Our businesses are suffering- no one wants to work. This has a huge impact on our economy.
Many of us have been raised to believed our payroll tax goes into our own fund and builds like a bank account. If that were the case why aren’t they putting into a bank account with our name on it? No! It’s another handout program, it’s a another tax. Many people get way more than they ever “put in”. I believe the President has a good plan to make things much better for us through changing social security and many other programs.
Our President Trump is a brilliant man. I choose to believe he knows exactly what he’s doing.
Anyone thinking a democrat in the oval is the answer can kiss America bye bye. No one has to worry about social security under communism. In fact forget health care, usher in the anti- christ. Repent for this nation and pray for the mercy of Yahweh. Pray for the wisdom this President needs, and that Yahweh surround him with those He (Yahweh) wants in place. This is about God’s Agenda, and the millions of lost souls. I plead the blood of Jesus Yeshua over this Nation and our leaders. Protection over Donald J Trump and his family and administration.
Amen!
And Amen.
Amen and Amen! Lord hear our prayers.
Trump clearly said he would fund Social Security out of the General Fund. He repeated that statement when questioned by a reporter.
I see it as an inspiring solution to the problem at hand-reminding this & all the other nations of his book “Art of The Deal”
My dear daddy told me about that book in early 90’s! I’ve been meaning to read it- you’ve inspired me to do it NOW!
Love your simple but profound comment!
If we can live with such huge national debt in other places, why not? These taxes are way too high anyway, and were probably anti-American to create. It’s a huge consideration and I am glad Trump is POTUS it is good to see such spirit. If anyone can resolve our financial problems, Trump is the best start! Do it President Trump! MAG! You’re our choice, you can do it! Praise the lord. Trump’s the best!
So called Christian’s who hate (oxymoron)yes hate President Trump believe lies from the fake news msm. Lord help us. I am so disgusted with Christian’s who believe the fake news more than they believe God & His Word. Be not deceived folk. Lord we know satan is prince over the power of the air. But You are God Almighty. If Christian’s (not all) spread the good news of the word as they do lies (about President Trump cutting social security) they would be in good shape. Get off of facebook spreading lies & try getting into the Book aka the word of God and He will change your wicked hearts.
Amen
