‘Dark Brandon’ Strikes Again: Masterfully Trolls Rick Scott On His Plan To Cut Social Security

President Joe Biden has found the perfect Republican foil as the midterm election draws closer by the day.

For weeks now, Biden has been aiming his rhetoric at Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL), who serves as chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, remarking in a speech he gave last month:

“Rick Scott, the – who heads up the ultra-MAGA agenda for the Republicans, he’s the head of the Senate campaign committee for the Republicans. … He said – he thinks everyone in America should pay taxes – not more taxes – everyone in America should pay taxes. All those folks making less than $100,000 a year, if they have some exemption, they should have to pay net more taxes. Average increase expected to be $1,200 bucks for every American under that amount.

“Well, beyond that, he says that we should try to be in a situation where we – Congress, every five years, has to affirmatively vote to maintain Social Security, which you paid for your whole life. You have to affirmatively vote. It comes up – if it’s not positively voted for, it’s gone, it’s eliminated. And you think I’m making this up; it’s not. It’s the only written Republican platform so far.”

As Chris Cillizza notes in a piece he wrote for CNN, Biden is making Scott the face of the midterms, and that’s a big problem for the GOP because virtually everything the Florida Republican says has been landing like a lead balloon:

Recent Democratic polling gains in the generic congressional ballot, as well as improvements in Biden’s job approval rating, are due to the growing sense that the 2022 election isn’t going to be a referendum on Biden and Democrats, but rather a choice between the visions of governance laid out by the opposing parties.

And now Biden has trolled Scott on Twitter, laying a nasty burn on him while again reminding voters that Republicans want to take a chainsaw to entitlement programs such as Social Security.

Scott brought the latest humiliation on himself, trying to mock the president with this posting:

Biden responded.

Dark Brandon is killing it, and we still have a month and a half until November. This is going to be fun to watch.
