The America I grew up in was great (80's/90's kid). The current state of our country is not so great at all. -We are forced to buy health insurance. Love having shit forced down my -blam!-ing throat. My budget has adjusted and I'm able to afford it, but it's the fact that it should be an option, not forced. -When I was a kid not everyone went to college. Now a days everybody HAS to go to college? FOR FREE?That's stupid. I know plenty of people that are currently making a great living without college. -Race relations are absolutely terrible right now. Every time I turn on the news it's some bullshit about race. Everything and everyone is racist. There is no tolerance anymore. -We pander to every single minority group like they are 97% of population. If you are gay, just be gay. If you are transgendered, just be that. All these minorities just need to STFU and be who they are without all the bitching. All this pandering is confusing the -blam!- out of our kids. -Government is too big. Needs to get their greedy hands out of our SS and retirement money. -America is further in debt than it has ever been. -We can't pledge allegiance or pray in schools anymore for the sake of offending some minority. -There are more mass shootings and bombings now than ever. -Our soldiers get blown the -blam!- up in a foreign country and our government covers it up. -Our borders need to be closed. There are too many people in this country. -All these welfare programs are bleeding the country dry. It doesn't matter who is the next president. This country is too far gone to be saved. These are the end times for US. Trump will only help to slow down the destruction, but it's only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose. Mark my words.

ARSTOTZKA GREATEST COUNTRY

There is no GREAT country. Every single one has its own issues. Media just likes to make Americas issues more known.

Trump is running a fear campaign. He's basically saying "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE IF YOU GUYS DON'T ELECT ME". The way I see it at least.

Because all of the other countries are shit.

I can't believe this needs to be spelled out: America is the greatest at certain things, clearly not all. Those things that aren't but used to be, let's make those great again.

ITT: People don't understand what great again means. [spoiler]Protip: it means you stopped being great at some point and need to climb back up, the slogan isn't "Let's make America even more great"[/spoiler]

I'm voting for Jimmy Fallon for president.

We're not the greatest. Watch this video, it'll explain why.

Maybe they see America as the shiniest turd in the world but it is still a turd?

How in the world are people trying to claim that the slogan means "we are great, but let's get even greater", when that is not at all what the slogan means? The slogan is saying we aren't great right now, so don't pretend Trump is saying anything about "constant improvement". If you have to go through this much mental gymnastics to justify your beliefs, you should probably reconsider those beliefs.

I love the rhetoric of Americans... "This country sucks!!!" What about it is so bad? "EVERYTHING." Like what? "It [i]all[/i] sucks! Look around you! Open your eyes! I shouldn't need to spell it out for you! If you don't already know, I can't tell you!" But, yeah, ask what the greatest country on Earth is and America is all great things rolled into one [i]squared[/i].

Who says we're the greatest? [spoiler]liberal assumptions[/spoiler]
