All Of The Republicans Are Terrible On Social Security

Whichever Republican emerges victorious in the party's Iowa caucus on Monday and ultimately becomes the GOP nominee, defenders of Social Security want the voting public to know that not a single one of them can be trusted to defend what is considered the greatest anti-poverty program ever enacted in the United States.

While former president and GOP primary frontrunner Donald Trump in recent weeks has attacked his top rivals for comments they've made about the program, progressive advocates warn he is no better.

Last week, Trump released a new ad against former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley in New Hampshire that states: "Americans were promised a secure retirement. Nikki Haley’s plan ends that."
