"America First" is meaningless rhetoric... Something easily packaged for consumption by the uneducated masses.


We can always look for Hope and Change. Yes we can...yes we can. Maybe we are the people we've been waiting for.

Yeah.
Trump should have employed a deep slogan like "Hope and Change". Amirite?

Seriously though, Trump explained what "America first" means in detail on multiple occasions.
It does not mean "America only".
It does not mean "America isolated".

It does mean other first world countries will no longer be able to live off of America's coat tails free of charge.

Someone beat you to your lame arse response. You spend 8 years critcizing Obama and now that your guy is in you use Obama to justify his every action.

It's not the only defense of the slogan, but you can't deny that "Hope and Change" was mindless rhetoric designed to reach the uneducated masses.

What should Trump's slogan be? Assuredly, with your whopping level of education you can come up with something good. Do tell.

In fairness the last republican admin left the country devoid of hope and in need of change. Obama delivered.

I'm certain that Trump meant it in a patriotic, positive way, but it's still a sorry coincidence that the Klan used the term as well.

If South Carolina conservatives could rally behind one solid candidate I think he'd get beat. He has a base in the Upstate but folks from the Lowcountry, Grand Strand and Pee Dee regions generally can't stand him. Globalist warmongers are not a particularly popular bunch here in South Carolina.

You're right. It's not like Obama ever said "It's Bush's fault."
