while also saving Social Security, Medicare, and other government safety-net programs.

Save them?

Where is the Constitutional authority for them even to exist? Nowhere, of course ...

Privatize or abolish. "Saving" them is just attempting to polish a turd.

Good luck trying to privatize the whole kit and caboodle. I always thought that one of Bush's better ideas was the option to privatize a portion of your SS and be able to invest in a tax-deferred retirement account. I would like to see that back on the table, I'm sure Trump could sell it.
