America always has been great

After going on a recent Honor Flight, it amazes me that any political party would use a campaign slogan 'Make America Great Again.”
I feel America always has been and always will be 'great” and seeing the hundreds of thousands of names on many war memorials is proof of that. Our servicemen and women have sacrificed their lives so all Americans can live free and there shouldn't be a need to make it great again. It's always been great with many lives given to prove that.
Anyone with doubt should go to Washington, D.C. and witness what our servicemen and women have given to prove that America is great!
