Push in on the flop or turn?

I like reraise to something like 55, like you said. You should always be getting it in here. ALWAYS.

No way I can fold on the flop at this limit, however possibly just raising to $50 on the flop would have been a better play than moving all in. I gain value from hands such as AK or 2 pair, but if any face card comes on the turn, I could lose the action I'm trying to generate by not moving in on the flop. In this example, he'll obv raise me all in but what about in general? Raise to $50? Raise all in? or something else?

At worst, you are 40/60, so I think folding is out of the question, especially since villain holding KJ seems unlikely, if he is thinking. If villain isn't thinking, you can't fold top set to him anyway.

I think I'll push, since there are so many possible scarecards, that will both scare us, but also potentially kill our action.
