America First, The Netherlands Second.

‘Make America Great Again’

Is the song ‘Born in the USA’ patriotic, or does it criticize being born in the United States of America? The same question should be asked about Trump's slogans; for example, what is the meaning of ‘Make America Great Again? Doesn’t he therefore mean to say it sucks? Because anything that is already great, you won’t have to make it great again, right? And does not the word ‘Again’ imply that it sucks right now, but there has been a time America was great. When would that have been… you might wonder… Since there are only 89 seconds left on the doomsday clock, maybe it’s about time we not only make America Great ‘again’, but the whole world. Knowing that every second counts, is at the same time realising how fucked up our situation really is and thus that our world really sucks.

Make The American Great Again

A country is as strong as its citizens because they are what the country is, so if the slogan is ‘Make America Great Again, ’ which exactly means it sucks, Trump is saying, ‘The Americans have to be made great again because they suck… Well, these are his words… obviously, but we love you, America, but you know ‘The Clock is ticking’, and frankly, the USA will never make it on its own. But help is on the way!

So Let US Shine

To know who you are and what you are, you must look around, not only in your place but also in time. This means looking back as well as looking forward. And to know who you are, you can’t do it without looking inward. And yes, you should know greatness lies in everyone, but you must train yourself to shine. We will use America, or ‘The American,’ as an example of how greatness can be shown. Not only to make America Great again, but also the world… Because, as you might know… it kinda sucks right now, which you would see if you had looked around. So, with what better people to start with than the most outstanding American Citizens from the LGBTQAI+ Community that are being Left Behind by the “Trump Administration’? For more information on this subject, please refer to the articles below. America serves as an example of how we should not treat people, while the great kingdom of the Netherlands serves as a model of how we should treat one another. You can read more about that on the page ‘The Netherlands Second’. As the world faces global threats, we need unity; therefore, we cannot leave anyone behind.

Trump promised to make America Great again, but if you could think of one president who did that, it was President Roosevelt (Dutch Roots obviously)

Systematic Removal of LGBTQAI+ Rights Under the Trump Administration
Systematic Removal of LGBTQAI+ Rights Under the Trump Administration

Under the Trump administration, significant rollbacks of rights and protections for the LGBTQAI+ community, particularly targeting transgender individuals, occurred through a series of policy changes and executive actions. The administration redefined "sex" strictly based on biological characteristics, which stripped transgender and nonbinary people of essential legal recognition and protections in employment, healthcare, education, and housing. Key policies rescinded included banning transgender individuals from military service, restricting gender-affirming healthcare funding, and blocking the ability to change federal identification documents. These changes have led to widespread suffering among transgender and LGBTQAI+ individuals, worsening mental health, legal and social exclusion, and increasing vulnerability to violence. The removal of anti-discrimination protections has further deepened the crisis, especially for marginalized youth facing harassment and rejection in educational settings. Globally recognized principles indicate that the erosion of human rights undermines national greatness, hindering social progress and harming a nation’s reputation. Inclusive policies foster equality, social cohesion, and economic development, highlighting that marginalizing any group ultimately diminishes collective advancement and stability.

The Path to Greatness: Empowering People for National and Global Renewal

"The Path to Greatness: Empowering People for National and Global Renewal" emphasizes the importance of empowering individuals as the foundation for national greatness.

A comprehensive people-focused agenda prioritizes individual needs, rights, and potential, promoting policies that support diverse communities and emphasize inclusivity. Key strategies for empowerment include education and skills development, encouraging self-advocacy, providing equitable access to resources, and fostering community engagement. Historically, figures like Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, and Martin Luther King Jr. illustrate the significant role of individual empowerment in fostering societal progress. Their legacies highlight that leadership rooted in moral courage and a commitment to uplift all individuals can drive transformative change. Overall, the text underscores that empowering people is essential for achieving national and global renewal, benefiting society as a whole.
