"Make America Great Again" - Why does this bother Liberals?

[LeftofLeft]

In 2008, Barack Obama used the slogan "Take Back America" and capped off that statement with, "The Fundamental Transformation of America". This was just political rhetoric in an election. Trump is saying the same thing Obama did yet with different words. What's the big deal?

Perhaps Liberals might be more accepting of Trump's Campaign if he simply said "Reward our Friends and Punish Our Enemies".

Another defense of Trump based on how much Trump is like Obama.

I thought you people didn't want 4 more years of Obama.

All he does is trash America as if it was in ruins and you people love him for it. His negativity and lack of faith in the American people is horrifying in a presidential candidate. If you people loved America you would find it objectionable too.

You need to learn the difference between a defense and comparative analysis. This is not a defense of Trump. I am asking if Liberals have issue with Trump's context or just Trump?

His ideas about what is broke and what it takes to fix it could very well cause our actual ruin.

According to a devout liberal. But I don't swing that way, the US economy is still on life support. People are tired of it and don't think more of the same will solve anything.

The difference with Trump's message is that it

1. Claims America was once great as opposed to the racist hellhole that liberals love to pretend it is and has always been.

2. Is aimed at advancing American interests for Americans. That is beyond the pale.

I love America and just whitenessed the first President ever to call for America to be fundamentally transformed. If someone told you they loved you but that you needed to be fundamentally transformed, you would question their love for you. If someone told you that they loved you and that they see how you can be better ( think RFK speech) you would not be questioning their love.

What is wrong about wanting to deport illegals and limiting legal immigration to increase jobs and wages for American workers?

for one example.

Just to do what he wants regarding illegal immigration would require reshaping us into much more of a police state. You people would just go along with it once again willing to trade our liberties for a illusory sense of security. Remember the patriot act? Domestic surveillance? This is how you get stuff like that.

Okay.

So you and Donald saying America isn’t great now, right?

 

[rightwinger]

America is great....you may even call us exceptional

 

[Freewill]

the problem is that Obama doesn't qualify his remarks, Trump does.

With Trump he is saying that America was great, is not longer, and he wants to make it great again.

With what Obama has said he basically is saying America is a shit hole of racism and suppression and he wants to end that. Of course he never does because it is not possible but at least his statements keep things negative just like progressives like it.

Please explain how deporting illegal aliens will turn US into a "police state".


For bonus points, tell us again how it is the Republicans that run on a campaign of "Fear".

"Making XXX (insert your favorite nation) great again" worked for Adolf Hitler.

It is however NOT working well for Adolf Trump.
