Great Social Security Myth: Reality of Illegal Immigration

Trump’s Latest Announcement

In the latest episode of political soap opera, President Trump has declared war on illegal immigrants by announcing he will remove those currently receiving Social Security. Applause erupted from the MAGA crowd, as if they just discovered that spaghetti is Italian food. But here’s the catch: undocumented individuals don’t have the luxury of Social Security numbers, or birth certificates for that matter. Spoiler alert: they can’t receive Social Security benefits!

The Disconnect

So, why the uproar? It seems that the MAGA supporters will believe anything without a shred of evidence. It’s as if they’re waiting for Trump to announce he’s going to stop dinosaurs from flying to Mars. As entertaining as that would be, it raises a question: why not challenge our leader’s statements with facts instead of cheers?

Understanding the Facts

Let’s clarify for those still believing Trump’s latest tweet: undocumented immigrants are not sitting on Social Security checks, twiddling their thumbs, and plotting their next barbecue. Instead, they’re often working under the radar, contributing to the economy without reaping the benefits of Social Security. So next time you hear Trump’s fiery declarations, just remember to check the facts. The reality may be more mundane than the drama unfolding in the theater of the absurd.
