Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) defended his proposal to sunset all federal legislation after five years, including medicare and social security, by comparing it to a 2017 Republican healthcare plan to cut costs, and repeatedly cited a 2017 interview by CNN anchor Jake Tapper during his defense. Tapper responds on CNN's This Morning. #CNN #News
Rick Scott invoked Jake Tapper 8 times in a 10-minute interview. Hear Tapper’s response
“May the SUNSET on the RepubliKKKLAN GOP Party once and for all time and may we never hear from them again, AMEN.”
@Z1BABOUINOS can you use English next time we don’t understand whatever that was.
@SEEK THE TRUTH! and you know that for a fact?…..
Dear Joan E skins: Etiquette is good to have. Dem criminals and the international world is going gaga over the decency that Sleepy Joe and sleep-around Harris provides. When Kamala fornicates, the Lord will refuse to hear her noisome prayers.
@eddyvideostar Wow dude. Take your meds. Seriously. Something isn’t right in your brain.
@Paul Brown They want sharia law. The republicans want the christian equivalent.
If Rick Scott tells me it’s raining outside I’d still wouldn’t believe him.
@Antonio Montana Well it worked on you, didn’t it?… Should I apologize because I can’t help myself from laughing at partisan hacks on CNN?……btw that was a rhetorical question, there’s no need for anyone to respond.
Red Skull is such a bad liar

@SEEK THE TRUTH! Good thing I’m going to Valhalla. Hail Odin.
Rick Scott was an excellent governor of Florida he’s okay with me.
How gonna tell him that Jake Tapper is a news anchor not a congressman or senator 🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽🤣
That Part!
When radical Republicans say something publicly or not, pay attention!Look what happened to Roe V. Wade!!🤚🏾🤚🏾
💯
❤❤❤❤❤❤💙💙💙💙💙💙
@P S I have said (for years) that the politicians ‘golden ticket’ retirement and health benefits, should be rolled into SSI and Medicare. The whole solvency issue of SSI &Medicare would be resolved immediately & never used like a rainy-day fund again, if the politicians were on the exact same plan.
@P S Also take all the money the Republicans spend on themselves from “campaign donations”.
@Jessica 👍
Rick Scott sounds like a child when they get caught doing something bad and they immediately play the blame game
The name of the RepubliCON party is, Deny, deflect and deceive!
Yes.
Par for the Republican course. A bunch of (mostly) 6th grade boys.
Rick Scott looks like death, he just needs the black robe hood and sickle.
@Rick Allen whataboutism is taught at Trump University.
The level of deceit within the GOP is offensive and extremely dangerous.
Offensive is the right word. They really think we’re (Americans) stupid. Scott is an idiot
It is sop for GOP
“That’s not the defense that you think it is”. That was a great response!
The only way she could have improved that comment would have been to say “If you actually believe the BS you are spewing, you need to know that the American people are not as stupid as you obviously are”.
I thought so too.
How old are you, 2?
@CAROLYN RUDOLPH
Rick Scott has a 16% approval rating based on the latest national polls that I’ve seen. That is way too damn high. 😁 He better get to work defrauding the polling companies.

@Ife’ Green Gerrymandering?!!! He’s in the Senate, not the House. A majority of Floridians, not just one district, keep reelecting this dope.
@Ife’ Green Rick Scott is a Senator, not a member of the House
Joe Biden is lowest rated president in history its funny.
Imagine being 70 and being told your Social Security is going change. Also, it’s hard enough to jump through the insurance board game each year trying to pick health care because they want to eliminate Medicare and “Privatize” healthcare so the money from Medicare goes to private insurance corporations. ☘️
@Catherine Williams And while the average American’s lifespan has actually declined the last few years.
@Jason Scott Only in GOP run states.
@unJackable420 Same here 67 and having health issues . No way I could survive without it . Who wants to hire a sick old man ?
Imagine robbing the US Treasury of $20 Trillion and pretending to care about America thats what Democrats do.
They can not do such horrific thing. People like yourself have paid into SSB. The democrats and President Biden will never sign veto it.
It amazes me how so many Floridians continue to vote for Republican politicians against their own best interests. Under educated and misinformed seniors.
@Erin Coco trollski
@Danisc it is terrifying
It’s just most people believe the sound bites Republicans spit out. They are good at twisting the truth to make it sound like a lie
@jorge gonzalez-larramendi that’s you bot boy. 🤣
That’s a nice way to refer to them. I just call them a bunch of old, stale farts.
“I’m sorry Senator. I don’t think that’s the defense you think it is.” 😂 burn.
@Charly Rhoades why did they switch the subject then? This is supposed to be a serious issue about Medicare and SS right? But they switched cuz tapper can’t defend himself. It was super cringe to watch that.
@Erin Coco “you keep using that word…I do not think it means what you think it means…”
@Carlo M. yes those exact words. Lol.
@A S Hacks? Oh son, that would be you saying Jake Tapper squirmed.
He so clearly showed showed 7:01 your over the hill old man, Scott, MISQUOTED. You need to educate yourself better 😂
@Monica Ingram What do you mean he is not a deep thinker? He is not a thinker at all.
Kaitlan Collins deserves a raise. She did a great job holding Rick Scott accountable
It says everything about the pathetic performance of the fourth estate in in the US that you think that….US press has totally abdicated their responsibilities.
Ms Collins should have said “I don’t care what Jake Tapper said .. I’m asking what YOU said!!”
@Rick Schroth
Why are you coming down on Miss Collins and not Rick Scott!?
He’s was deflecting the whole time!
@Raymond Rocha jr I’m just stating that she should dealt with his deflecting head on. She needed to eliminate that response and refocused on getting her question answered.
@Rick Schroth
It would have not mattered! He is all about whataboutisms!
He would never give her a straight answer!
Rick Scott sounded like a little kid trying to argue physics with a physicist.
I can’t imagine being 70 years old and the republicans are going to decide if I can keep my social security.
Roe v Wade remember ?
Basically! The Republican GOP just wants hardworking Americans who PAID into the Social Security benefit to just DIE! then those funds go back to the government 😒
Trust me it is hard to imagine. In that case, I want a full and total refund starting from 1966.
It would be kinder if they legalized physician assisted self deliverence on demand. So many seniors are now forced to live in cars and vans with barely enough money to survive.
@Linda Miller Refund WITH INTEREST.
Love Jake! He’s so smart! Caitlin is a great interviewer also!
I appreciate all your fact-checking. Please never stop shutting them down.
Yes. It’s all about them facts 👍
We pay for our social security, and I’m sick and tired of corporate subsidies and tax evasion. The GOP want to give welfare to corporations and make regular working people pay more than their share until the day they die.
Yes. It’s called feudalism.
If cost cutting is the issue, why is no one talking about curtailing some unnecessary military spending, that would solve much of the issues.
If any one remembers the history of Scott, he ran a corporation he was involved in health care business latter being charged with ripping off the health system, when he showed up in court he took the “FIFTH” seventy five times, his company was subject to the largest fine in medical history. The people of Florida decided that if he was that big of a crook, he would make a fine Governor after his time was up, the Florida Republicans decided that they they can’t let this guy go, as they need more of his kind in Congress so off he went to Congress were he started to but heads with Mitch, so, Mith had to put him in a corner for a time out. Mitch has underestimated the people of Florida, most likely they have an eye on their boy Scott for his next move into the white House ,where he will probably out crook the forty fifth. And The Floridians will just love him more.
Kaitlan Collins: “I don’t think that’s the defense you think it is.”
Rick Scott: Derp!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you Kaitlyn for calling it what it is lies. It’s about time people use the word.
