A complimentary piece from the Washington Post?

The premise behind "Make America Great Again" is that the country is no longer great. It can be great again, and the campaign has a certain can-do billionaire in mind as the guy to make that happen, but at the moment, the leading contender for the nomination of the party that regularly touts the notion of American exceptionalism is arguing that the country ain't what it used to be.

As someone about Trumps age, I find it easy to believe his explanation as to why he’s running.

I’ve agonized over the America we are leaving for my own children and grandchildren to live in and raise their families in. Most Freepers here probably feel the same way.

America hardly resembles the one I grew up in. It’s but a shadow of its former self, with freedoms, successes, and with respect from our friends, and fear of us by our enemies, all but non-existent.

Trump said he was running so that his family wouldn’t look at him, knowing he could have fixed it, but didn’t.

His own story of building the Trump Organization shows that he knows how to build great empires. Now he wants to make all of America great again.

I think we are but the lucky side beneficiaries.

Yes, this is just another pointless shot at Trump.
Hunters call this the "Go to HELL" shot.
Taking a shot at something that is obviously out of your range, but your so angry and you just want to fire one off anyway.

[Trump] really believes we can make America great again, and I’m not an optimistic person, but I think he can, because he’s got a built-in ability to use the media, just like Obama

---

No, dear. That would be just like Reagan. Obama has no skill at using media. Without a teleprompter, the man couldn’t answer the phone. Media prostates themselves at his feet, uncritically. Obama’s only talent is speaking in vacuous, meaningless terms that are a Rorschach for his deluded followers.

Nope, the typical WaPOO reader will just think the people being Interviewed are Rubes who don’t appreciate how Wonderful a Soviet like Centralized Government really is.

You know what they say, consider the source, the WaPOO.
