We need a President (and a Congress) with the stones to tell them "NO!

For whatever his faults, George W. Bush tried that at the start of his second term. Told voters that Social Security was unsustainable and changes will have to be made.

He got his head handed to him. No politician is going to try again.

Back last year, I opined that we had three options for President in 2016:

(1) Cruz
(2) Trump
(3) We’re screwed.

(1) Crashed and burned.

(2) is what we have ... we’ll see what good it does. If Trump hasn’t the stones to cancel the Gibsmedat Gravy Train, then ...

(3) we’re screwed anyway.
