Would rather not have Trump be at the center of this, but maybe if we got rid of social security people would start thinking they actually have to start saving for retirement.

OP, simply having a financial plan can transform the situation of someone making $50k.
Financial literacy improves savings rate and reduces spending so much more than income differences sub(to an extent, let's say up to $100k)
That's why you have plenty of Consultants here who have no savings because they spend so much and save so little.
This is Congress decision. So o doubt he can really do it though
Yeah, theres no way this actually happens so all this ends up being is baseless fearmongering
The power to do this was given to him by the Supreme Court when the Supreme scourge decided that DACA wasn’t illegal. Thus, allowing a sitting president to make changes to legislation via Executive Order. This is 4D chess, people, y’all gotta learn to read into it.
Oops, I just realized that the iPhone typed in “Scourge” instead of “Court”. iPhone’s trying to start a thing here!

It was destroyed by FDR and a Democratic controlled congress when they created it without a mechanism for adjusting the payment of benefits based on increases in average life expectancy. The Democratic House of Representatives in the 80s helped it along when they raided it to cover other expenses when a big workforce due to the baby boomers meant the problems they were creating were far off (i.e. now). Nice try.
