I overlooked it because it is irrelevant hogwash.
We will not see any candidate win who is espousing changing the social safety net, particularly the Social Security system. They will have to do those things AFTER they are elected and by force of will, not popular support.
The Democrats win every election by scaring the hell out of low information voters that the Republicans will stop Social Security checks, end Medicare and kill grandma. The last thing we need is to try to explain to the idiots why these programs must change PRIOR to getting elected.
Once elected, a forceful POTUS and Administration can ram any number of changes through. Particularly a popular second term Administration that has an economic boon to their advantage.
NO. We will not win by promising a Chilean retirement system and Medicare Privatization even though that is a great model. We will only win by promoting a highly popular program and today that is Immigration and tax reform.
Those successes in a first term allows for a second term. Look at what an unpopular Obama is doing in a second term. Imagine what a driven, popular seconfd termer could do.

So you expect Trump will do that ram thru stuff..
I do too.. by executive order..
As I suspected.. Democrats do that.. ram thru stuff..
Force feed.. Congress.. by bending them over..
So you are NOT hoping for a sea change.?.
Which is what I want and a Justice Department that will punish current and PAST injustice..
WOuld require 2010 on steroids to do that... if we don’t get one of those....
America is lost never to recover except by revolution..
or you know.... CIVIL WAR II..
Which I am actually hoping for.. hopefully ALL the bravest didn’t die in WWII.. Korea or Vietnam.. Iraq or some other hell hole..
BUT alas; they probably did..
A simpler message: government needs to stop breaking its promises it makes to the American people.
The easiest promise to keep is to enforce the laws. You don’t have a government or a country if you don’t enforce the laws.
