(This is a game, … or rather a contest — we’ll vote for the best entry later. I wanted to put it in the _Thread Games_ forum, but am afraid some of the precious Trumpies will get butt-hurt.) Pick a campaign slogan or political saying and revise it so it makes sense for post-rational Trumpist America. I’ll give a few (poor) examples: Hillary Clinton’s comment about a Village: _“It takes a golf course.”_ JFK’s “Ask not” sentence: _“Ask not what you can do for your fellow man; ask what you can do for Donald J. Trump.”_ I hope Dopers will be able to do much better. ---

Goofy Elizabeth Warren is weak and ineffective. Does nothing. All talk, no action – maybe her Native American name? (Ok I’ll be honest, I didn’t actually alter this cherished slogan one iota from its original form like we should…I think it’s brilliant enough to win on its own) ---
