Donald Trump said “all of these people are coming in” and it will “destroy Social Security.” That’s False. Social Security’s fiscal challenges stem from a shortage of workers compared with beneficiaries, not from immigration. https://t.co/Ya6nyoZSJq

Who fact checks the lying fact checkers? Of course, once again, Trump was right. As this article from American Thinker points out, illegal aliens “paroled” in to the United States become eligible to collect [Illegals are indeed getting immediate Social Security, contrary to Democrat claims, by Monica Showalter, July 9, 2024].
So too do Cubans, Haitians, Afghans, Iraqis, and Ukrainians just by virtue of their nationalities. If you wonder why Social Security is going bankrupt despite your paying into it for your entire life, wonder no more.
