How To Make America Great Again

Make American Great Again.  It's a slogan, folks, not a policy.  I have heard people say "I don't like him but I agree with his policies."  Trump's specific policies, such as they are, are abhorrent to most people: walls, deportation, roughing people up.  I think they just have some kind of nostalgia for when America was "great," and I want to ask when that was, and what is wrong with the country now.  Not that things are perfect, but it is enlightening to see what people want to change.

Is American not great now?  Not anymore?  Yes, we have issues- but not the kind that a politician can fix.  We have an obsession with reality TV stars (like Trump.)  We have a short attention span, (which aids Trump, because people forget what he said yesterday.)  Ignorance is common and celebrated (which, again, helps Trump, and is fed by people like him.)  In fact, he is everything that is wrong with this country.  Self-centered.  Bigoted.  Greedy.  Ignorant of the world around us, and even of conditions in our country. 

Trump is not a very good businessman, not much of a manager, got most of what he has because of his father, doesn't know about anything except real estate, has a temper, and is full of himself. Just what I look for in a president...

I've said that I think Trump is a plant to make Reps look bad.  But then, apparently the entire Republican caucus exists to make Republicans look bad.  No matter what they do, they're awful.  "Whatever Obama wants, we won't even consider it.  Going to an ice cream social for dessert?  Socialism!"  I don't understand why people vote for them.

Make American Great Again: ignore people like Trump.   And stop watching Fox.
