If making America great again requires you to pay more for everything, lose your retirement savings, work more for less pay, be unable to afford health insurance, become an indentured servant to the oligarchs, maybe you were better off with the no so great version.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:
1. Create a new $15B science fund
2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada
3. Immediate permanent residency
4. Citizenship after 2 years
Overnight a science superpower

Here's an example of Trump being a "cognitively irresponsible" leader. These kinds of leaders are authoritarians who refuse to give good reasons for their actions. They would prefer if we just accepted "because I said so" as an explanation.
REPORTER: You would agree it's never acceptable to assault police officers?
TRUMP: Sure
REPORTER: Among those you pardoned is a guy who used a stun gun on a police officer. Why does he deserve a pardon?
TRUMP: Well, I don't know

Donald Trump rescinded Biden's action to lower prescription drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid.
There's no other way to spin it. That means more money out-of-pocket for seniors and families.
