The Jeffersons, All In The Family rebooted. Trump Heard the Cry of the Unprotected.

It's also worth noting that shows like All in the Family and The Jeffersons routinely tackled topics that still definitely resonate with today's society. Issues like race, gender, and generation gaps played key roles in the drama and the comedy of these series, and I think it's safe to say that those scripts will still play with modern audiences. After all, Archie Bunker's old-fashioned curmudgeon personality never goes out of style.

Although this series of reboots is currently in the early stages of development, it makes plenty of sense when we consider the fact that Sony is about to debut a remake of Lear's One Day at a Time on Netflix in January, though that show fits into Netflix's seasonal standards. There seems to be a resurgence of enthusiasm for the man's work, so it's only logical to capitalize on that.

I guess it’s time I revised my definition of government.

Government is an armed minority, occupying territory and taxing the inhabitants thereof to reward its supporters. In return the government protects the inhabitants from enemies foreign and domestic.

In other words, the only justification for a government and its bullying supporters is that it keeps us safe. It is there to protect the unprotected, and that is all. The problem is that liberals don’t think that everyone deserves protection.

As I have written here before, I mark the day in 1971 that Archie Bunker debuted on "All in the Family" as the moment that liberals stopped protecting the white working class. The message from producer Norman Lear was unmistakable. Archie was a racist sexist bigot, and he deserved to be punished. No protection for him, said the Soup Nazi.
