What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Dear MAGA,
The inauguration will be a private affair. Just Trump & the broligarchs in the rotunda.
No seating for you.
No special events to acknowledge your support.
Not to worry. There will be emails later urging you to buy Trump coins, shoes, bibles, hats etc.
Keep that cash coming.
Be best.

to recap:
— Trump was *for* the TikTok ban
— which the GOP Congress passed
— and the GOP Supreme Court upheld
— and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway
— so that Trump could "save" it
— and the media fell for it
we really do live in the dumbest fucking country
