Florida Senator Rick Scott got grilled by Fox News reporter John Roberts for including a provision in his “Rescue America” bill that would sunset all federal legislation after five years, including Medicare and Social Security. Roberts pressed Scott on why he would provide a provision like this to which Scott replied saying that it was just a Democrat talking point, which is a total lie.

"Fox News’ John Roberts cornered Rick Scott (R) when the Florida senator tried to write-off the controversy of his policy ideas as “Democrat talking points.”
Roberts interviewed Scott on Fox News Sunday and brought up Scott’s 11-step ‘Rescue America‘ plan. Roberts noted that Scott’s proposal calls for all Americans to pay income tax, and included this provision: “All federal legislation sunsets in five years. If a law is worth keeping, Congress can pass it again.”
As Roberts read directly from Scott’s plan directly, he noted that this proposal could lead to Social Security and Medicare getting shuttered in 5 years.
“Why would you propose something like that in an election year?” Roberts asked.
“That’s, of course, the Democrat talking points,” Scott began, but Roberts cut him off.
“No, it’s in the plan! It’s in the plan!”
“Hang on, Senator,” Roberts continued. “It’s not a Democratic talking point. It’s in the plan.”"
