Trump takes away the funding source (which he has promised to do and has done already for federal workers), and no benefits in three years. Also for those three years the Federal government will have to borrow another $3T to retire the Social Security held Treasuries.

Biden Harris signs given out everywhere.
Big ones along the interstates.

Donate to down vote candidates.

Do everything to get Mitch Mitch out of
Office.

More drive-in town halls.

I get a combination of at least 6 text messages and emails a day asking me for money. A lot of them with a bit of subliminal guilt in them.

Go Joe!

But it’s nice to know Biden can move resources at will to cover areas that need the support.

Trump is going to try to steal the election via litigation. The DNC has already hired an army of lawyers to fight it. A lot of this will go toward paying them.

ADs for Senators in places like MS, KS, GA.

Paying for voter IDs or rides to the polls in states that's allowed.

I can think of all sorts of ways to spend that money that would be more than just more Biden ads.

I'm sure they can too of course.
