5. Bullshit. The question that needs to be answered is if he tried it.
He certainly didn't say anything about this compromise to Democrats in Congress or the public, so who knows how it would have gone over.

The point is that this President folds behind closed doors while ONLY negotiating with the Republicans or private companies.

If he would have been able to raise the cap he could have saved SS forever and many liberals would have been okay with it. Instead, he does something that will make it worse because it was easy.
