Why are Republicans labeled anti old people?

[The Thriller]

Interesting letter from the Dnews...

https://www.deseretnews.com/article/700140240/Explain-the-truth.html

How do the Democrats and the liberal media get away with it? "Obamacare" takes $500 billion out of Medicare and the Paul Ryan plan sponsored by the Republicans affects no one over 55 years old. Yet it is the Republicans who get blamed for taking away Grandma's Medicare when just the opposite is true. If we had an honest mainstream media, these obvious facts would be explained.

Old people vote. Democrats say they (Republicans) hate them (old people) in hopes of winning votes, duh.

Not sure where this is coming from being Republicans get the majority of the 55 and older vote in virtually every major election.

Whatever label they were given by whoever obviously isn't very relevant.

It is relevant if Democrats can move the elderly vote their way.

The letter is just parroting a claim made by Paul Ryan last week. It's a statement that's half true but draws some false equivalence.

I just came in here to neg rep everyone who responded.

Commies.

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Sirkickyass again."

Suck! 10x now, homie.
