Has President Trump really achieved MAGA?
Brave Candace Owens appears often on shows that promote Extreme-Leftest ideals. She attempts to promote a more conservative viewpoint with her "off the Plantation" program. Shouted down constantly, she still pushes her message. Her new book; Blackout: How Black America can make its Second Escape from the Democrat Plantation is due out September 15th.
Recently on Diddy's Revolt TV summit in Atlanta, Candace Owens was trying to explain MAGA when rapper T.I. interrupted her with a rant of his own.
"When you say 'Make America Great Again,' which period are we talking about? The period when women could't vote? The period when we were hanging from trees? Or the crack era? Which period in America are you trying to make America like again? Which period was America great that we're trying to replicate? Which era was it, tell me."
Needless to say, amongst applause and shouts from the crowd, Candace was never given the opportunity to respond to T.I.'s questions.
I believe this is an excellent opportunity for US to explain what MAGA truly means to those who support our President in his reelection bid.
First, to me, it's not a time period at all. It's a belief in our Country. MAGA means the return of Pride in the U.S.A. Of Patriotism and Can Do spirit.
If one has to consider a Time Period, it's every time, all the way back to when we were colonies, that individuals set aside their differences and worked together to achieve the most amazing events in our history. When what is most important to everyone came before any specific individual. A pioneer spirit. The Democracy part of our Democratic-Republic. A famous Democrat President perfectly described by saying, 'Ask not what your Country can do for you, but what you can do for your country' - Kennedy. MAGA is an abstract ideal that says 'we' is always more important than 'I'.
MAGA doesn't mean other countries aren't important, it only means that as Americans, it's sensible to consider our citizens first. Not only, but First.
MAGA means accepting our pimples and loving America anyways. The "Great Experiment" has achieved remarkable results, we need to push forward not slide back.
Rapper T.I. has declared MAGA racist. TDSers have declared the same thing. It's unfortunate that this Dream of conservatives will never be accomplished as long as they push the anit-Trump agenda. My apologies to Mr. President - MAGA 2020, not KAG. We ain't there yet. That doesn't mean we won't keep trying.
