Opinion What does "Make America Great Again" mean to you? And how do you see it being great again?

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

Just curious what you americans think about that phrase "Make America Great Again". What does really mean to you?

From an outsiders point of view.

I think America is the most influential country in the world, that alone says there is greatness about the country.

You guys usually do it the best compared to the rest of the world when it comes to those 3 things.

Also what's your expectations for the country and the president at the time?

1. Returning to production at home rather than abroad.
2. Resurgence of the Middle Class
3. Relatively unified vision of the nation
4. Resurgence of pride in the nation

Now, do I think Trump would be the one to institute all these...no. But the question was about our ideas of "Make America Great Again".

You pretty much summed it up...and I would add making our borders secure again

How can you think so little of us?

A pretty good one though, tbh.

Having a national identity and standard without compromise.

Wearing diapers in public, Super Hero Camel toe NFT’s, and buying Bibles off serial adulterers.

You made the posters point.

I find this one a bit strange because I see a lot of MAGA on this site (not you specifically) that also think production workers shouldn´t unionize and just eat shit on wages because otherwise their goods might go up in price.
I always found it funny to see those 2 opposing views from some posters.

I'm just glad this thread hasn't been hijacked by a bunch of the TDS...Orange Man is bad because I was told so...muppets.

So the conman stole it? Typical. And sad.

We are an easily impressed bunch in this country, apparently.

Focusing on what is best for Americans and America's future.

Investing in infrastructure, education, manufacturing, and technologies.

Securing our borders and bringing law and order to our cities.

Doing the will of the people.

Spending money wisely within our borders before donating billions to others.

Stop focusing on labels and differences among peoples.

Are people really this unaware of the country's history? TS thinks all we've contributed is movies and music?
How about we bring back manufacturing EVERYTHING that we gave to China and no longer produce on our own. We ship meat into the country from overseas, FFS. Our farmlands are disappearing.
If manufacturing isn't enough, how about we stop out exploitation of literally every person we could consider a minority? How about we have some expectation for our communities?
How could anyone look around this country and say straight faced that we've gone in the right direction?

Well, I find it strange that certain people support cutting little boys dicks off. How about that? Step down off the pedestal.Your side is gross.

Eliminating circumcision for babies.

It's wrong and unnatural.

That's because American society has been slowly engineered into believing that a disposable society to the degree we have is perfectly fine. Planned obsolescence for the sake of increased profit. In the past, expensive items like cars and household hardware were seen a proper investments meant to receive regular care and maintenance and as a consequence achieve years of ongoing reliability. I have no problem with increased pricing if we returned to that type of product quality.

As for unions, I believe there was also a shift in the mindset and application of unions as opposed to what went before.

As a foreign observer, for me this would mean a America that's trustworthy and admirable. I don't believe either of the main candidates are capable of improving America towards this ideal.

It's tried and true political dynamite for the masses.
