Claim that Trump's $90 Medicare payments draw on Social Security

Original: It appears, from my bank statement, that Trump is paying the $90 to medicare recipients out of Social Security Salary ac

A US retiree says their bank statement shows the much-discussed $90 Medicare-related payment to recipients being deducted from their Social Security account rather than funded separately.
