retirement age and never cutting benefits? >> so all seniors out there, promises have been made to you. every single paycheck, they have taken money out of. that promise needs to be fulfilled so that will happen when i am president. i have a lot of seniors in florida that depend on social security. i think back to my own grandmother who lived to 91. social security was her sole source of income so promise made, promise kept. on the retirement age, it used to be people would say well, life expectancy is going up. shouldn't it mirror that? well, the problem now in the last five years is life expectancy is going down. so i don't see how you could raise the retirement age when our life expectancy is collapsing in this country. that's a huge problem in and of itself. i will work with both sides of the aisle. we'll work on something for the long term strengthening. but i'm not going to mess with seniors benefits. in this high inflation environment, groceries are going through the roof.
