Should Trump Come After Our Social Security?

A reader sent me this, and remarked, “Keep your greasy little hands off our Social Security!”

Most of Donald Trump’s MO makes sense.  Appeal to people’s fears, hate, and greed, while exploiting the ignorance that has crept through the American society in the decades since we began dismantling our educational system.

But certain of his actions seem counter-intuitive.  I would have said it’s part of politics 101 to promise people things they hold valuable, e.g., Social Security.
