I don't think we were ever not great. It's funny, when Trump implies there was a time when it wasn't great, the left goes berserk. When Michelle Obama explicitly says she never felt pride in America until Barack got the nomination, that was OK.Go look at many many threads where that was discussed.

But we can be betteragree - we should always strive for that, and I think a return to a time when it was easier to be middle class, and to a time when we felt secure that our kids would have things easier than we do. That's how I see the MAGA slogan. I don't see anything sinister there.
Thanks for giving your view of that. I have asked a few times and people have always dodged that question.
