How about "Make America Great Again" of Trump? America is still great and will continue being great for many years, but America will never be as great as it was in the year 2000. Power of America reached the peak in the year 2000 before 9.11 event in 2001. The key basis of powerful America is absorbing global wisdom but global Internet invented by America is more conducive to China rather than America to absorb global wisdom. Therefore, America will gradually decline and the powers on the earth will continue spreading to multipolarity.
Huge population was and is the biggest advantage for China to surpass the richer countries such as Japan, UK and Germany in the aspect of comprehensive national power. And China will continue rising and be able to counterbalance America. Then the huge population will become instead the biggest disadvantage for China to continue rising. China has the largest quantity of high-density but low-quality high buildings in the world but has not any city like American Silicon Valley where is made up of low-density but high-quality buildings. It will take several decades for China to reduce so many redundant populations to break away from low-quality of crowded society so that it's impossible for China to surpass America and lead the world.
Only Europe has potential to surpass America and lead the world. Greece, Rome, Spain, Netherlands and UK were successively the greatest country in the world. The biggest characteristic of America relative to Europe country is "bigger" rather than "more advanced". Some Europe country that is smaller, weaker and more flexible than America will likely guide the world into new social model, just like Netherlands in the 16th century guided the world into capitalist society. Thus "Make Europe Great Again" will be more persuasive than "Make America Great Again".
But guiding the world will be not enough for any single Europe country to surpass America and lead the world. America is like the lion king, China is like the fattest elephant, India is like the second fattest elephant, Japan is like an alone wolf, Russia is like a remote polar bear and Europe is like a pack of non-united wolves. Only united wolves can surpass the lion king so political integration will be the final result of Europe, even if Eurozone and EU will briefly disintegrate and decline. Converging pressures from China and USA will stimulate declining and divisive Europe to become Europe Federation. America is like a kind of strong acid. China is like a kind of weak base but will gradually be like a strong base to counterbalance America. The Europe Federation will be like the neutral water and represent universal values of the world to lead the world again.
