I can't believe I'm saying this, but it looks like Trump is actually 
making America great again.

Just look at the progress made since the election:


1. Unprecedented levels of ongoing civic engagement.

2. Millions of Americans now know who their state and federal 
representatives are without having to google.

3. Millions of Americans are exercising more. They're holding signs and 
marching every week.

4. Alec Baldwin is great again. Everyone's forgotten he's kind of a jerk.

5. The Postal Service is enjoying the influx cash due to stamps 
purchased by millions of people for letter and postcard campaigns.

6. Likewise, the pharmaceutical industry is enjoying record growth in 
sales of anti-depressants.

7. Millions of Americans now know how to call their elected officials 
and know exactly what to say to be effective.

8. Footage of town hall meetings is now entertaining.

9. Tens of millions of people are now correctly spelling words like 
emoluments, narcissist, fascist, misogynist, holocaust and cognitive 
dissonance.

10. Everyone knows more about the rise of Hitler than they did last year.

11. Everyone knows more about legislation, branches of power and how 
checks and balances work.

12. Marginalized groups are experiencing a surge in white allies.

13. White people in record numbers have just learned that racism is not 
dead. (See #6)

14. White people in record numbers also finally understand that 
Obamacare IS the Affordable Care Act.

15. Stephen Colbert's "Late Night" finally gained the elusive #1 spot in 
late night talk shows, and Seth Meyers is finding his footing as today's 
Jon Stewart.

16. "Mike Pence" has donated millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood 
since Nov. 9th.

17. Trump has succeeded where thousands of history teachers failed - now 
everybody knows who Frederick Douglass was.

18. Melissa FREAKING McCarthy.

19. Travel ban protesters put $24 million into ACLU coffers in just 48 
hours, enabling them to hire 200 more attorneys. Lawyers are now heroes.

20. As people seek veracity in their news sources, respected news 
outlets are happily reporting a substantial increase in subscriptions, a 
boon to a struggling industry vital to our democracy.

21. Live streaming court cases and congressional sessions are now as 
popular as the Kardashians.

22. Massive cleanup of facebook friend lists.

23. People are reading classic literature again. Sales of George 
Orwell's "1984" increased by 10,000% after the inauguration. (Yes, that 
is true. 10,000%. 9th grade Lit teachers all over the country are now 
rock stars.)

24. More than ever before, Americans are aware that education is 
important. Like, super important.

25. Now, more than anytime in history, everyone believes that anyone can 
be President. Seriously, anyone.
