If prior attempts to conserve the status quo failed, then it seem logical to
want to go back to the point prior to the failure.

Liberal and conservative are kind of meaningless terms. Progressive and
Reactionary are probably the more accurate political terms. Reactionary may
sound pejorative, but if you look up the definition, it’s pretty dead on.
In the context of Robert’s post, conservative is indeed the right term, since
the wealthy wants to maintain the status quo. But what you hear all the time
these days is take things back to some prior time when things are thought to
have been better. That’s reactionary. I mean, the red caps don’t say Keep
America Great.

I read that, except for reducing taxes and benefits to common workers, the
extremely wealthy don't want any change in politics, the status quo must be
maintained. So when one party comes into power, those to items are the only
ones that you will see any real movement on.

You have that exactly right. There have been ample opportunities for both
sides to advance pet dogma. Especially on the abortion issue. I am apathetic

Barbell curve, I love it. Some could say the bathtub curve.
I recently watched the series on Netflix about Vince McMahon. I realized I
was watching current American Politics. I didn’t know that Trump even got in
the ring with him at one point and smacked him down.
I think Trump has used McMahon as the prototype for his TV/political
career.
The dems play the heel pretty well. But they are never quite popular
enough to be the baby face.

Every time a party has control of the White House, Senate, and House and
then DOESN'T do all of the things they say are so important to do, that means
that everything they say is just a political football and that no one actually
cares.
