Female
Announcer: The chief actuary of the Social
Security Administration just released an analysis of
Trump's planned cuts to Social Security.
Under Trump's
plan, Social Security would become permanently depleted by
the middle of calendar year 2023.
If Trump gets his
way, Social Security benefits will run out in just three
years from now.
Don't let it
happen.
Joe Biden will
protect Social Security.
Biden (voiceover): I'm Joe Biden and I
approve this message.
