"Make America Great Again" Ted coined it first in this campaign video.

Donald Trump announced his run June 16, 2015.

Those words that came out of Donalds mouth, and then emblazened on those red hats saying, "Make America Great Again" Hmmm where did we hear that one before Donald came along????

Yep, it was from Ted Cruz months earlier.

"It's a time for truth, a time to rise to the challenge just as Americans have always done. It's going to take a new generation of courageous Conservatives to help make America great again. And I'm ready to help lead that fight."

I suggest Ted Cruz take up another motto: Make America Constitutional Again! Or, Make Government Small Again! Or, Don't Mess With America!

Or,

I renounced my Canadian citizenship a couple of years ago! :)

I still have a Reagan campaign poster from that era with this slogan.

Trump spoke to CPAC in 2014 and said it. He had the trademark in 2012.

You are welcome. I am following Trump with great interest. I forget how many deaths are in the Clinton wake, around 80? I laughed out loud when Huckabee said he has dealt with the Clinton machine for 30 years and “lived to tell about it”! So, for years I wondered how the Clinton criminals could get away with everything....Enter Trump!

He should have registered it as a campaign trademark.

Now it belongs to the American people.

Not a good strategy to start using Trump’s campaign theme... methinks.

Trump obtained the trademark in 2012 after Romney lost.

Ted has a slogan : Reigniting the Purpose of America.

Judging from the title on the threads in the Activism/Chapters area about his campaign, I was guessing it was:

"Take Off, You Hoser!"

The photo and logo aren’t mine so I couldn’t legally sell them anyway.

Hint: You are not making America great again by squabbling over a phrase everyone knows dates back to Reagan and possibly before. Who cares? It is a phrase, not action. It’s a slogan, not even a principle.
