This is why I could never get behind the "Make America Great Again" mantra. It's was adopted by a group of seniors of a past generation that has no idea how it is to grow up or live in the 21st century.

The only ones who will know how to make this country great are the younger generations. This article pretty much shows how out of touch seniors are.
