These are the changes Trump wants to make!

As Donald Trump is heading to the Oval Office next year after defeating Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, retirees and those approaching retirement are anxious because they don’t know how his policies will impact their golden years.

It is well known that between 2017 and 2021, during his first term, Trump made some changes to the tax code and also showed a willingness to start a major reform on programs like Social Security and Medicare.

Now that he is the 47th president of the United States of America, it is important to know more about his reforms and how they can impact retirement. Some of his proposals could put more money in the pockets of seniors, but other ideas made many people concerned because they are now fearing an uncertain future.

Let’s see how Trump’s second term could reshape retirement in America. Whether you’re already retired or you are just about to hit that milestone, it is better to be informed in order to have a secure retirement.

    I have always been under the impression that the next generations taxes are what pays for this generation of retirees so if thats true then the current retirees now should not be paying taxes.
    Also why should they be paying taxes on the money thats already been taxed that is owed to them for paying into the system with their taxes for all those years prior with their money that they earned and was taxed already ?

    I sure hope that he doesn’t take away income from our retirement or Social Security! With food prices and Heath care expenses so high the people of The USA are already having a difficult time with just buying food! I’m going through rough times right now with losing my husband of 39 years and my income I go without food . This country needs more Not Less. I don’t think Trump has ever gone HUNGRY! SO Mr. PRESIDENT Donald TRUMP please think about it before you take our retirement income down! We need an increase.

    What does this article accomplish? It does not answer the question it asks. Instead, it just gives one more worry and questions. Not informative. Just confusing.

    I DO NOT AGREE with POS idea to change Social Security. Reasons; how is this going to affect people who are on Physical Disabilities???? Mental Health Disabilities???? There are SO MANY PEOPLE who are Mentally AND Physically Disabled!!!
    How does (DUMB ASS) propose to do this??? I am retiring in a couple of days. I am looking forward to NOT HAVING TO WORK!!! Unless, I chose to!!!
    This POS DOES NOT CARE about ANYONE, but itself!!!! And, wanting to RUN this Country INTO the GROUND!!
    The ONE thing it cares about IS MONEY and NOT EVER paying FOR ANYTHING!!! And, being king…😡
    Or, hand it over to its Butt Buddy; putin????? it IS A DISGRACE to the United States of America!!!
    It should have been CONVICTED of its CRIMES and PUT IN JAIL!; when it tried to OVER THROUGH the GOVERNMENT on JANUARY 6th!!!!!

    any money drawed out that has not paid tax on should b taxable. There is to many loop holes to avoid paying taxes. They only help the rich not the poor. Cost of living raises should be the same for everyone, not a % of everyones benifiet. again this only helps the rich (who dosen’t need it) and the poor keep geting poorer.
