'Everyone outside of Washington perfectly understood what my plan was trying to accomplish, but that hasn’t stopped Washington politicians from doing what they do best — lying to you every chance they get,' SenRickScott wrote.
In an op-ed for the Washington Examiner, Scott called allegations that he planned to cut spending for Social Security and Medicare a"disingenuous Democrat lie from a very confused president."
"So, since the folks up here are clearly too confused and disingenuous to get it, I’ll put it down in black and white so they can read it or have someone read it to them. I believe that all federal legislation should sunset in five years, with specific exceptions of Social Security, Medicare, national security, veterans’ benefits, and other essential services. If a law is worth keeping, Congress can pass it again," he continued.
Scott also took a pass at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell , implicitly accusing him of being complicit in the Democrats' claims.
