Washington DC - President Donald Trump on Thursday celebrated the 90th anniversary of the Social Security Act by boasting about having kicked nearly 275,000 of the nation's most vulnerable people off the program.

To mark the 90th anniversary of the Social Security Act, which was signed into law by former President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1935, Trump held a press conference in the Oval Office.

"Almost 60 million Americans seniors rely on Social Security for peace of mind and a life of dignity in retirement," Trump read off a pre-prepared statement alongside Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano.

"These Americans paid into the system, and they deserve leaders in Washington who are going to protect the benefits they've had and protect Social Security."

Trump then went on a rant about how Social Security under former President Joe Biden "went down like nobody's ever seen it, deteriorated."

Using the occasion to slam immigrants, Trump bragged about having kicked 275,000 undocumented migrants off the program.

"To protect our benefits, we've already kicked nearly 275,000 illegal aliens off of the Social Security system," Trump said, referring to some of the nation's most vulnerable people.

"These are people, many of them have already left the country, and yet we were sending them checks all the time," he claimed, citing no evidence.

"And we're carrying out historic deportations to remove many more illegals committing Social Security fraud. It’s a Social Security fraud that was taking place at levels that nobody’s ever seen."

Having rambled about Social Security for a number of minutes, Trump signed a proclamation commemorating the 1935 Social Security Act.

"Social Security is rooted in a simple promise: those who gave their careers to building our Nation will always have the support, stability, and relief they deserve," the proclamation read.

It didn't take long, however, for the proclamation to become an opportunity for Trump to tout what he sees as his own political achievements and once again slam migrants.

"My Administration is aggressively rooting out all fraud, waste, and abuse that rob our Federal programs of resources – including stopping payments to the deceased and eliminating benefits for those who do not legally qualify," it said.

"I am making the Social Security Administration more efficient, more responsive, and more effective than ever before," Trump claimed. "Reducing wait times and delivering the payments."

"I am also proudly restoring strong border security policies to ensure that Medicare and Social Security are preserved for the citizens who paid into them – not abused by illegal aliens who have no right to be here."
