It’s blatant extortion now.

    Why does Trump want the US to be great again? 🤔 It seems like the US can’t be great and humble anymore under the Trump administration. 🤷‍♂️

      “Make America Great Again” has always been a slogan for making rich Americans richer while poor Americans are distracted by the culture war.

      This might sound weird, but I honestly think there’s now an opportunity for the Left to take the slogan as their own. There could be blue MAGA hats instead of red ones, acknowledging that America has truly fallen and needs to be resuscitated.

        If we actually did full blown maga, it wouldn’t be red or blue. We would have to become way way more libertarian. At this point, I’m thinking maybe we should not even have a president, and only have the house and senate. Illegal executive orders have given too much power to the presidents.
