Make America Great Again

Another half-hearted critique of Donald Trump.

The year is 2016 and we are all too familiar with the name "Donald Trump." I revere a time in history when you had to tune into The Apprentice to hear his blabbering ignorance and narcissism but now, unfortunately, all you have to do is turn on CNN. We have been force fed this orange haired, potato-faced dumbass 24/7 on any news network imaginable as if somehow people are still shocked he even got a single vote (and you should be). It seems every time he makes a comment that you would expect from the fat 7th grade bully all we Americans are rewarded with is more free T.V. time for the Donald.

The American voting public is being fed a distorted message when Donald Trump says something completely and utterly racist, bigoted or just plain stupid and we get to watch three news anchors try to salvage what he maybe, could have meant behind all of the shouting and repetitive adjective choices (looking at you Fox News).

Donald Trump is actually right, America is losing its way. If we were as great as we used to be back in whatever time he's referring to in his campaign slogan, someone would have realized he's a 12 year old by now and the country would have moved on. But, sadly, we keep giving him incredible amounts of credit and respect for presenting policy ideas I used to write about in my high school civics class papers and promptly receive a C-.

I thought this was a country of patriots. A country that when someone embarrasses themselves on national television we treat them like Janet Jackson and ruin their careers.

If we have one hope left, may we leave it to the handful of you that still make YouTube video montage commentary to ruin a Trump campaign once and for all. Please enjoy a list of some links to my personal favorite videos that show Thin Skin in his natural habitat. Enjoy-

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
