Biden and Trump Clash Over Cuts to Medicare and Social Security. In a telephone interview with CNBC host Joe Kernen, former President Donald Trump was asked how he'd "handle entitlements" like Medicare and Social Security when it comes to addressing concerns about long-term debt. "So first of all, there is a lot you can do in terms of entitlements, in terms of cutting.” "And in terms of, also, the theft and the bad management of entitlements — tremendous bad management of entitlements — there's tremendous amounts of things and numbers of things you can do.” Biden, who pledged during his State of the Union address to stop those who “want to put Social Security on the chopping block” took to social media to say, “Not on my watch”. The president addressed the issue again in New Hampshire on March 11. ”If anyone tries to cut Social Security or Medicare, or raise the retirement age again, I will stop them.” "This morning, Donald Trump said cuts to Social Security and Medicare are on the table again.” Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt issued a statement. ”President Trump delivered on his promise to protect Social Security and Medicare in his first term, and President Trump will continue to strongly protect Social Security and Medicare in his second term.” "The only candidate who poses a threat to Social Security and Medicare is Joe Biden — whose mass invasion of countless millions of illegal aliens will, if they are allowed to stay, cause Social Security and Medicare to buckle and collapse.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
