Its a good thing that the Democrats nominee will fight to protect SS, and has a long history that they can point to, to demonstrate their commitment to it.
I do see Biden as the better option here if its a binary choice.
Trumps base will follow him into the depths of hell, if the left keeps pressure on Biden the Dem base is definitely against cutting social programs.... so it would not be such an easy task.
I don't see him as being able to sell some kind of "grand bargain" either like Obama was able to..
What sort of pressure would the Vote Blue No Matter Who crowd exert on a one term president who is unlikely to live long enough to finish it, and how would such pressure manifest? Reminder that Obama offered Social Security cuts as part of one of those dumbshit grand bargains and Biden is considerably to his right. I would bet, well, the entire Social Security Trust Fund that Biden is going to agree to Bush's 2007 privatization scheme and the Blue MAGA crowd will go along with it because the alternative is this shit from Trump.
