America doesn't need to be "great" again. That the biggest lie that orange faced, snake oil salesman is selling, America IS great. Its him that's making it not great,by believing or at least endorsing the idea that anti-fascism or anti-racism is another side of the coin from fascism and racism. It's a stunning new low for the US and modern democracy
What policies?? He has yet to really lay out any policies and what he has tried to do such as healthcare reform has failed. Trump might well be a fascist/racist but most of the policies he talks about changing or implementing are right out of the republican handbook. He really has no far right policies, but he does have a ton of far right rhetoric, and that is what is bogging him down currently.
As regards making America great again, you are right, its not needed. The military in particular have been annoyed with this especially when he would talk about how poor they have become, this is hy so far the military have not sided with him on a number of things.
