“Make America Great Again” is a phrase that will forever live in infamy. Those four simple words will always be associated with the darkest stain ever seen on both American history‚ and the Office of the President. Donald J. Trump was elected as President of the United States on November 8th‚ 2017‚ and on that day morals and truth became irrelevant. Though Trump’s assault on both the media‚ and the truth‚ existed long before this day‚ the very idea that so many Americans had bought his Brooklyn Bridge
