Trump Warns of Social Security Collapse Linked to Biden's Immigration Policies

Saturday, 13 April 2024, 10:05

Former President Donald Trump inaccurately claims that Social Security could collapse due to President Biden's immigration policies. Despite Trump's alarming rhetoric, experts and reports from Social Security's trustees confirm that immigration actually helps fund Social Security. Although the program faces challenges and potential benefit cuts, a collapse is not imminent.

Trump's dire prediction

Former President Donald Trump claimed at a campaign rally that President Biden's immigration policies would lead to the collapse of Social Security, but experts disagree.

Examining Trump's claims

Social Security faces financial challenges and potential benefit cuts, but it is not on the brink of collapse as Trump suggests.
