Or call it the republican dilemma. They hate SS and Medicare. But Americans love them.

And always will.

Which is why no Supreme Court will rule them unconstitutional. The court would quickly be packed with judges who disagree.

Americans aren’t giving up those programs.

Even red states will vote for Jesus and Abortion until you threaten their benefits. Then Jesus and abortion moves to the back of the bus.

I was raised evangelical. It totally transactional. What’s in it for me.
