For all you Trump haters..His new slogan!

The fact that you're showing so much butt hurt over an election and a red cap, a symbol of that win, makes me feel so less confident...:mrgreen:
Got anything else? :peace

I'm not showing anything but the truth. Your president is a failure and the slogan is garbage.
 
Agree that it was a good slogan. But the slogan begs the question: when was America great, and what made it stop being great?: civil rights laws? Women no longer having to tolerate sexual harassment? Enviornmental protections? I can understand the notion that globalization has harmed sectors of our economy, but aside from that more or less inevitable process, what made the US less great?

The only answer I have heard from my "ok, when was America great?" question has suggested the 1950s. But that is pretty lame, given that the US was prospering on an artificial high while Europe was still recovering from WWII. The 1950s were great for blue collar union workers, Trump's base if you forget the "union" part and think of whites only, but were the fifties were great for black and brown Americans? Or were they great because they and women knew their place? Repeat that it is a great slogan. I bet Mussolini might have said "make Italy great again." That's the problem as I see it, as fascism as a style is a longing for an almost mythical past, and Trump's style is unmistakably fascist. (I don't use that word as a necessarily negative term, though I think it is, but as a measure of the appeal of Trump's style.)

"Make America Great" would certainly be a more factually accurate slogan, but it doesn't embrace the patriotism and nationalism prevalent in our country. Also, everyone recognizes, regardless of the reason, that there was certainly more economic success after WW2, and that more or less carried on up through Reagan. Since then, we've stagnated hard, in many ways, with what progress we do make all going to benefit the top 1%. So, it's not like there's not something to the "getting back to that" mindset. The people who have the MAGA mindset, though, never understand the reasons for why the good things stopped, and they'd want the bad things to return, as well, so that's not good.

It's almost like 40 years of trickle down hasnt worked. I cant imagine why.

Wealth should trickle up.
 
Red caps = Salty liberal tears of rage

That's not the truth. It's your opinion.

How does that work? Either you are saying that the wealthy should trickle the wealth up the ladder to those already wealthy or, everybody should trickle whatever their wealth is up to the already wealthy. The only result of trickle up is the rich get richer.
 
Keep America Great! Ha. I know you'll love it and want a nice new hat. Enjoy! :lamo

Does this mean America is great again? As in, mission accomplished?
 
Thanks but I already have one and I got it for making a donation to the Trump campaign.

I know... I'm a racist. :lol:

Racist? You mispelled 'dolt'.

What I'm saying is the wealthy should not be enabled by generally republicans to keep 90% of what a company takes in.

If workers were paid more and management less, consumers at large would have more income with which to purchase goods and services. This money in turn flows up to the business owner, making him decent money but enabling everyone to make enough to both contribute and generate wealth for the majority of the population.
 
For all you Trump haters..his new slogan!

****** KEEP AMERICA GREAT ******
Send tRump back where he came from
**************2020*************
 
"Make America Great Again" was actually a good slogan, Trump just never had any intention to do it, nor the intelligence to do it, had he cared to try.

Since he has not made America great again, it's very silly of him to think that we can now "keep it great". Almost everything is worse than it was when he started, and we're on the edge of another, probably larger recession. We'll see how well that works out for him.

What’s worse ?
 
God damn Trump supporters are idiots.

Who the hell in thier right mind is gonna pay $25 for a ****ing TRUCKER CAP??? Plastic snap closure? Seriously?

For 25 bucks, they better be asking my hat size and making that mother ****er fitted.

And here you are, ladies and gentlemen. The typical hateful left.

What was hateful about it? I'm trying to explain to people they are being ripped off. A trucker hat shouldn't cost a person more than like 15 bucks, and that had better be one hell of a hat.
 
people pay that much for caps all the time.



That's an all-the-time a lot of dumb people. "Make America Great Again" caps with an American flag go for $5 on Amazon. How stupid can you get? Answer: More.
 
How many? A whole lot more than could afford them under Obama, because more have jobs more are getting raises and more have seen their mutual funds and retirement accounts increasing.



“A whole lot more”. You can’t show that. You have no evidence of such. At all.

Just as under Obama jobs increased and wages increased and mutual funds and retirement accounts increased. But that’s no reason to be stupid and pay $25 for a cap when you can get a MAGA type cap for $5 on Amazon. The same dumb-asses that voted for Trump lining-up to pay $25 they can’t afford for an F’n cap. I say can’t afford because you can’t show that wage increases translates into real increase in median household income. "Real" meaning inflation adjusted.
 
Oh, there are lots of stupid people with money to burn. Kirsten Gillibrand raised $2.3 million in the second quarter. At least the people who buy a hat get something in return


"...get something in return"

Yeah. Like Flip Wilson once said. "A 25-cent sandwich for a dollar-fifty."

And look at the "MAGA" voters for Trump. Thinking they'd get a big tax break and a wall built by Mexico. You know, the 10% to the middle class he promised that none of them got. Practically all the tax break went to the rich and large corps while those with less got crumbs. No wall, won't happen. If ever, not paid by Mexico. And they still love the guy. Talk about stupid.

LOL, I love you guys "yeah, but Obama . . ." nonsense. He's been gone for 2 1/2 years. Yeah, he saw some tepid economic growth - but he started at the bottom of a recession; Trump started from the stupendous gains :)no:) the miracle of Obamanomics delivered and STILL surpassed him in every way.

Sorry, no. About 85-90% of those that PAY federal income tax got a reduction; even those that DON'T pay but get money from EITC got more.

I voted for him and I got a tax break. So did every one of my employees. Sorry to be the one to burst your bubble of ignorance but at least now you are free. Now go forth and educate yourself

When did it become great? Not sure I see any (positive) difference in America in 2019 that I didn't see prior to 2017.
