I completely agree. It is quite disturbing how many people in this country by into this MAGA=racism BS. We are definitely in for a rough decade. I'm sure the pendulum is going to swing left in 2020 and when it does it's going extreme. It is going to be a long time before common sense and logic takes over and we see middle ground again.

I would never wear a MAGA hat, but I don't think I want to live in a world where they are construed as hateful. Especially, since "hateful" just means anything one side does not agree with.

This is a democracy Liberals. You cannot have my rights.

  • Brought Trump a victory that the status quo said couldn't happen
  • Democrats on MAGA
  • We can't fight it.
  • MAGA trumps Pocahontas, Mad Maxine & tears of a clown Schumer
  • Hillary looks bad, Bernie is bitter, Biden is tired, Beta was whipped, and O-C dances like Sandy.
  • The rest? who caresWhat's a Democrat to do about MAGA
  • Pull out that old standby the R-Word.
  • Use crooked MSM to make it unacceptable. Give people right to use violence against.
  • Above all Destroy it before 2020 before we are beat again.We see this being played out on a daily basis.
Yes indeedy, it was one of the most successful slogans in political history.

That is why Trump stole it from Ronald Reagan.
If someone had done what he did, he would sue them for copyright infringement.

Whose slogan will Trump steal for his next campaign??

Trump cannot even come up with his own slogan. Sad!!

"...Ronald Reagan used the similar slogan "Let's Make America Great Again" in his successful 1980 presidential campaign...."

Incorrect. Obama did far far worse and that was just a few years ago. And the GOP gained power in the Senate. Unheard of.


Democrats regained about 280 seats of the 1100+ which they lost under Obama. It was a very poor showing for the money & resources spent.

Your definition is merely a production of your hysterical liberal, mentally ill mind.

And no, you didn't crush it in the midterms. You won the house.

And that one day in November was in spite of all the polls saying Clinton was a guarantee. THAT is called a crush.


No dems won MORE SEATS than in any other midterm since Nixon. (40 seats dude) That is crushing it.
We won 6 more governorships.
We won an additional 6 state trifectas (control of all state gov)
and of course and hundreds and hundreds of minor state and county positions.

Dems did fantastic, and the numbers alone don't tell the full story. The reality is that crushing defeat weakened Trump vastly. Republicans in the senate and house now know the price they are going to pay at the polls in 2020 for supporting Trump's racism, his anti american policies.


Why else to you think the majority of elected Republicans have fallen silent? They don't want anything to do with Trump , his wall or his shut down .
and btw it appears you just agreed with me ref the nov 16 peak of trumpism...

Ah, it's the old some people of color are okay with it, so all people of color should be okay with it. You don't get to speak for all people.

I'll put a token on my racist nonsense bingo card.

it's such a tired old leftist ploy: label stuff you disagree with as 'racist' or 'hate' in an attempt to smear your opposition.
