Seriously you are so emotionally involved that you would be upset about a mm with a trump theme?

If you don't want it political, just do red, white, and blue theme, an american theme. No matter what, he is the president of United States even if some don't want him to be.

Last year he was a joke, so it WAS a great idea! This year he's become more serious...

Yes, it was.
Because Trump supporters would shep nachas and opponents would think you're making fun of the slogan.
I am liking it more and more...

Grab them by the hamentash? hadn't even thought of that!
I am not a Trump supporter but I think the Make America Grape Again idea could be cute.
That said, this was a highly emotional election for many people, so if you don't want to distract from your Purim message, I join the crew of people saying, just don't make it about politics.

Well, I'm not, but then again I didn't stop functioning and ask for play-doh and crayons or start a riot when my favored candidate lost an election 8 years ago.
Many people did not cope well with the recent election, so I'd err on the side of caution.
Even in a more "normal" campaign year, I avoid controversial statements in my MM. My main goal is for the recipients to get joy from my gift.

great ideas on this thread. everyone chill, it's just mm, as long as it's cute your friends shouldn't get offended and if they do, OP, less for you to package next year.
was going to suggest patriotic theme which we did the year of 9/11. really cheap plastic uncle sam hats (practically disposable they were so thin), turned upside down and filled with colored straw. can't rmmbr the food but anything color-coded.. those round red and white circle mint sucking candies, maybe some fake coins or dollar bills? (chocolate gelt if those look like US coins, or print a dollar bill (don't photocopy it's illegal) and tape it over a chocolate bar label)

I'm for Make America Grape again. Depending on the age of your kids I'd certainly go through the trouble of making them into grape bunches by using purple balloons and a trash bag.

You can "build a wall" with marshmallow rice treats and write "make america great again" with red licorice. You can also put mexican food on one side and american food on the other side and write a poem to explain it.
You can make red chocolate caps by using white chocolate with red food coloring. Then you can write a poem about making America great again incorporating the theme of Purim. https://www.amazon.com/CK-Prod.....10KKB

They sell mini chocolate bars with different denomination bill wrappers. I'm almost sure they come in milchig and pareve.
