As a 70 year old retiree, I will happily vote for a new deal for the young.

Because the elderly already are so dominant within the electorate, and because demographic trends will make them more so, the current liberal moment could be over within the blink of an eye.

Except being that they are elderly their lives are just as likely to be over in a blink of an eye. 500,000 more conservatives are dying per year than liberals and are being replaced by around 1,000,000 more liberals (given how many young are liberal as a percentage of their cohort)

you can't tax cut your way or rage tweet your way to immortality.
