America was exceptional. #1 in Education, health care, infrastructure. Our government, for the most part , worked to make the republic better. We were church going people, patriotic, and proud to be Americans. Those days are long gone.
If their message was meant to better america, it would be to that point. Instead the goal is to return to a previous era, and declaring that era was great. Subtle fucks.
In America’s current state, it’s not legal to make America great again.
A more perfect union.
They knew centuries ago.We just suck at it.
The progressive era of FDR is the great again in the slogan make America great again
that’s the again.
I would satisfy for being able to make America reasonable and trustworthy at least for a start.
But lacking the time machine that necessary to undo the fatal stab wound delivered by Richard Nixon when he actively engaged in treason with the goal of extending the Vietnam War in order to make LBJ look weak, or even if I could make it just far enough back to prevent Reagan’s operatives from convincing the Iranians to hold on to the American hostages until Reagan defeated Carter I would feel much happier about America’s prognosis.
But the Republicans have been holding the American people hostage again and again and again and we’ve developed Stockholm syndrome.
Every quarter the Republicans threatened to shut down the government even when they’re in charge just to keep us used to feeling like the hostages they have made us.
And of course we are still living under the Reagan regime of avoiding an educated proletariat at all costs and Reagan’s hate for unions that he suddenly developed the moment General electric made him Rich by hiring him as a spokesman, so without a TARDIS there’s very little to be done at the moment.
So yeah that meme is looking a little adventurous.
Can we even make America competent for a change?
Yes, I am not feeling my most optimistic at the moment. But that’s because I’ve read the history of Europe in the first half of the 20th century. And I know what’s coming.
