How does a work requirement help seniors on Medicare?

Or anyone else??

We haven’t been paying into Medicare all our working lives to be told, enjoy your retirement, but if you want healthcare, get a part-time job.

Sununu doesn’t understand NH voters nor what NH needs in a US Senator!!
Republican New Hampshire Senate candidate John Sununu says he supports a work requirement for seniors on Medicare:

"I certainly support a work requirement for able-bodied Medicare recipients."

Trump has a new LIE for every occasion. You never got a DOGE check or Tariff Rebate check.

This election really is about Common Sense vs. Crazy … if you believe the crazy GOP Lies you have lost your Common Sense!!
Trump announced 17 MONTHS AGO that everyone was going to get $5,000 checks because of DOGE cuts. You got $0.

Medicare isn't some handout

American seniors PAID for it-through years of hard work

Jesus, is it possible for Republicans to hate Americans any more than they suggest do

Of course Trump’s promise to pay American adults $5,000-but only if Republicans win-will never happen. Has anyone gotten a DOGE check? Or the tariff money?

Even if he weren’t lying (I know, but hear me out), it would cost about $1.375 TRILLION-on top of the current $40 trillion debt

Ludicrous
Deliberately crashing the American economy—costing American families well over $5,000 each—and then promising to pay those families back $5,000 but *only if* they keep letting him abuse them and the country for two more years...

...is some *seriously* dark, domestic-abuser shit.

A special message to Democrats and Independant voters who buy into the growing narrative that the Republicans are in disarray as their candidates are unpopular and unelectable. "Democrats up by double digits" are exactly the news that stifles Democratic turnout. Ignore the media polling stories!

It’s time for mainstream press to come to terms with the fact that these are concentration camps and when people die inside them, it’s because they are functioning as intended.

Which bill will you pay

Food or rent

It’s a choice nobody should ever be forced to make. Certainly not anyone living in the world’s richest country

But this is exactly the decision that so many people are making-here, in the US, in 2026

Welcome to Donald Trump’s America

BUT Trump doesn’t want to talk about “affordability.”

The GOP has no interest working for the American people…and has been pushing destructive policies for decades!
The policies of this administration and the doormat Congress that enables it are crushing the working class. Grocery costs just hit a record, a family of four is now spending around $1030 a month. #RepublicansStarveUS Colleen Landry knows it’s not sustainable. Watch👇👇
