President Obama Blasts Ron Johnson Over Social Security

On Saturday, former President Barack Obama stumped for Mandela Barnes and Tony Evers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and targeted the out-of-touch Senator Ron Johnson, who does not understand working-class people and will destroy Social Security benefits.
Obama asked the audience who was on Social Security. A number of hands went up. Then Obama lit a fire into the crowd.
"Some of your parents are on Social Security. Some of your grandparents are on Social Security."
"You know why they have Social Security, because they worked for it. They worked hard jobs for it," he said
"They have chapped hands for their work, They had long hours and sore backs in bad knees to get that Social Security," he said, becoming more energized.
"And if Ron Johnson does not understand that."
Obama got serious...
"If he understands giving tax breaks for private planes more than he understands making sure that seniors who worked all their lives are able to retire with dignity and respect, he's not the person who is thinking about you and knows you and sees you, and he should not be your Senator from Wisconsin!" Obama said pointedly.
The crowd cheered wildly.
"The message he is sending is pretty clear: if you are related to him, If you donate to his campaign, you get a deal. If not, you're not out of luck, and you're on your own," he said.
Ron Johnson may be very rich, but he's a wacko Russian stooge, with no class, or dignity. And he cares little for 99% of the people he supposedly represents.

Still the best campaigner in America. I'm not sure there is even a close second.
yeah, his work in 2010 and 2014 was legendary!
I'm not going to find it, but there was a chart years ago showing democratic polling on issues like Obamacare fared better the less Obama talked.
This is what fear smells like. Having struck out with abortion and J6, the Democrats are playing the greatest hits to close out the election and will try to scare seniors.
"Republicans will take away social security," they cry for the twentieth straight election, even though Republicans have never come close to passing any legislation to do so.
Will they run ads of Republicans literally killing seniors like they have in the past? Or will that conflict with their "Republicans promote violence" rubric they've been obsessing over since Mr Pelosi was attacked by a crazy illegal alien in underwear.
Must have been a coincidence.
Of course it was.
You think that tweet caused this attack! That's just embarrassing.
Is there something wrong with you?
YOu believe a crazy person saw a tweet about "firing Pelosi" and that directly caused him to try and break her kneecaps and you want to know what's wrong with me?
Tell the truth, were you one of those people who think Sarah Palin's post caused the lucid dreamer to shoot Gabby Giffords?
Youve totally lost it. Where did I say a tweet caused anyone to do anything?
By the way, the "crazy person" told investigators that he was going to kidnap Nancy Pelosi in order to expose "the lies of the Democratic Party".
But to you he is politically neutral.
Just stop Sean, you are embarrassing yourself.
Do you think that this man is likely mentally ill? Do you think that he has a political philosophy? Was John Hinkley a progressive or just mentally ill?
Can you point me to where I said he was "politically neutral?"
and where's your proof that the tweet by Emmer caused him to attack Pelosi (or that even saw the tweet) ?
Yes, yes, and yes..
Shall we accept that everyone that spreads or believes crazy ideas is mentally debilitated to the point where they need institutionalizing? There arent enough beds in mental health facilities in "red" districts to accomodate the rush.
Like there are in blue districts. Funny how the left forget their wack jobs. Or is it they just ignore and release them pretending they don't exist?
Seems Democrats only care about Democrats.
Imagine the outcry from Democrats if David Depape had been released hours after the attack.
Funny how the leftist two tier justice system works.
Maybe Brandon should make another speech, this time in front of the White House bathed in red light flanked by two heavily armed marines (unarmed ones just don't have the same affect); and scream about how Republicans are endangering this country. And threaten half the population with the use of military force. It worked so damn well the last time!
With CGI in play, they should run commercials of old Nazi footage in concentration camps with Republican faces superimposed on the camp guards. That would get two birds with the same stone. I've lost count, how many Republicans have been compared to Nazi's and Hitler now?
Lol. That's probably being kicked around.
Funny thing is democrats are the only ones to put people in concentration camps.
Why isn't Biden stumping for anyone?
Ummm, uhhhh ... most of them (again) apparently have "prior engagements".
I absolutely LOVE the demonstration here.
People who actually aren't crazy and can get elected say things like:
Now...whether or not you agree with Obama's assessment is not the question. His statement is effective because it's not complete nonsense.
Contrast that with:
Whenever someone says things like "wacko Russian stooge, you almost can't resist...
Another election, yet another Dem lying scare campaign that the Repubs are gonna do away with granny's Social Security!
