What M.A.B. Stands For: The Make America Better movement, known as M.A.B., represents a growing effort to reshape American politics through thoughtful decision-making and long-term planning.  At its core, this movement operates on a simple but powerful principle captured in its slogan: Better Choices, Better Future.  Rather than focusing on division or quick fixes, M.A.B. encourages citizens to think carefully about the consequences of their political decisions and how those choices will affect communities for years to come. The M.A.B. movement was created to rival the M.A.G.A movement which they claim is to (Make America Great Again). The M.A.B. movements claim is that America is already great we just need to make it better than what it is right now.
