The really funny thing is that...Ready for it?
America is already great! I don't need Trump to make it "Great" Again. I don't really see the problem?

America is not great. It's a stinking cess pool of corruption and exploitation. Only my country rivals it as the biggest #hole on the face of the earth.

Well, read Trump's tax plan. It'll raise the debt.
As a result, the Trump plan increases the federal deficit over the next decade by $10 trillion or $12 trillion, according to several estimates

True to an extent, but what's really making it not great? NSA Spying, Pollution, corporate control of our economy, Wall street and big bank crimes, Militerization of our police force, colonialism. Trump won't change any of that.
By great I mean, I have a thriving business, infrastructure is good, all of my family is employed or in good shape, healthcare is good, Overall...compared to, let's say the last 10-20 years America is great.
To make America great, as I mentioned above, Trump would need to take us back to JFK or Eisenhaur or maybe even farther. Is that what he's talking about?

You've just inadvertently described why. You talk about yourself. The western culture that has grown over the past 25 years, led by America, is disgusting. It's all about 'me'. It's a rotten and insular culture. The American dream used to be a shining light that the world, in the main, tried to emulate. But now? Nah. The middle class in shrinking, the poor have little to no way out and the rich get richer. Keep it up and you will have a two class society in a generation or two and hope of bridging the gap will be gone. If you or you offspring manage to be part of the rich class you'll be lucky. Millions won't be.

But that's not luck. That's hard work. The American dream of Wealth is still valid. I've got my own business, through hard work and my children all see what's possible. But that's another topic.
Is Donald trump, son of a very wealthy connected father who guided Trump to wealth. How does that help any of us or you? Trumps not the one to help the poor or middle class. He has no clue when it comes to that. I'm not saying Hillary is any better, but Trump isn't the one help anyone that needs help. or make us great.

Donald Trump will give people more freedom from government taxes, regulation and control. Hillary will do the opposite. Take your pick. I choose the candidate who will deliver the most personal FREEDOM from taxes, regulations, and control. An Easy choice when looking at those 2 options.

Your premise is that hard work = wealth. That's plainly wrong. You also need opportunity and help along the way. Do you think a hard working young African American kid of great character living in an inner city has the same chance as a kid form the suburbs? You might say it's always been thus and that is true to an extent, but the gap is widening and the opportunities are drying up. Watch what happens when hope and opportunity is all but gone. You think you have a class and race war problem now? It will get worse.
I would suggest that no one person can make the change that is needed, including Donald Trump. It is going to take the people to force it, but whilst you (society) have your head focused on yourself without a care for anyone else, then you stand divided and you have zero chance.

Well two things, I think Trump is divisive and that's a big problem. I don't think he has any intention of pulling this country together at all.
Secondly, My point should have been that despite, setbacks-roadblocks and obstacles to success, at least here in the USA, there is opportunity to succeed. If you work hard, do a few certain things with the right attitude, you can and will be successful. I mean that for an average man. I'm not very smart, don't have a well connected family and wasn't born lucky.

I hear the term divisive thrown about a lot. It doesn't really stack up if you go beyond the rhetoric. I see race and class division but that was not created by Trump. The deep divisions are driven by policy and it's been building for years. I have not heard much from Trump other than his focus on inner cities to change things, but I have heard nothing from the Democrats. In fact they fuel it.

Well sure, I'll agree that democrats fuel division. That's not up for debate, we both agree there. However, they are not as good at is as the conservatives. All their talking heads and pundits are weak. But the Republicans...they have the best dividers in the world...I give you gold medalists--Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Michael Savage.
But when I say divisive when I talk about trump...He's offensive when he mocks disabled people...I saw that. When he insults women for their looks...I've seen him do that live at debates and on and on. His rhetoric is divisive.
I'm no Hillary fan either, that's why I'm going Third party, I'll be blameless. I'll tell my kids, years from now, that I did everything in my power to stop Hillary and Trump from getting elected but the brainwashed masses were too much to overcome.
