Why don't the Democrats run an ad like this?

It seems like every year, Social Security is robbed to pay for Republican pet projects. I'd love to see the Democrats run a commercial with a grandmotherly old lady, and a voiceover person saying, "Sorry, Grandma. It's another year of Kal Kan for you. All because the Republicans stole from Social Security."

I mean, crudely inaccurate attack ads are pretty common, so if they're not running it, it's probably because it's a little broad even by those standards?

It certainly beats talking about how you're a bigot because you won't recognize a Tumblr SJW's "ze" pronoun.

I mean, Republicans have to pay for the tax cuts & national debt somehow. Since they increased military spending, there's only 3 major areas left to cut: Social Security, Medicare, & Medicaid.

There are a TON of seniors who are really scared that the GOP will cut their hardearned SS & Medicare. That's why Hiral Tipinerni nearly won in AZ-08, why Conor Lamb OBLITERATED Rick Snowcone, etc.

Social justice doesn't pose any real threat to the corporatist oligopoly model the Dem establishment in parasitically entwined with.

Economic justice does.

Since dog food would actually cost more than other available options, why would Grandma be getting Alpo?

Where, precisely, are the straw-man nominees running campaign ads on that?
