Why don't you answer some questions for once and go through that whole shtick? What does MAGA mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently I am dumb enough to believe that because that’s the truth.

Guest Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Boyle is right that MAGA means different things to different people. It meant different things to presidents Trump, Clinton, and Reagan, who all uses the phrase during their campaigns. I think it’s a pretty weak argument to limit the notion of making America great again to recapturing all things from some snapshot in the nation’s history.

Anathema- Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I thought we all abandoned the fantasy that black people can't have a vested interest in propagating white supremacy at least after DJANGO UNCHANGED but some people are really invested in their ignorance. It's also strange how we have to parse every detail to condemn some MAGA racist shithead but Muslims can be painted with a poll, and black people a couple out of context statistics.

Shift them goal posts. You believe you know what it means when trump says it (as I probably hold a similar belief) but you don’t know what it means to others, and there isn’t one single meaning.

Yes, because Clinton's not wearing a MAGA hat. However, Pat Buchanan's Make America First Again was built on the same thing MAGA is. MAGA hats and the power that phrase has right now? Completely different, and what Reagan/Clinton did is irrelevant to what I'm saying and already known to me. This isn't something I just thought of.

The fact that you agree about what Trump means when he says it is the hilarious part: you know what it means, but you don't want to admit it.

Massdriver Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Is this a summary of the positions? Position 1: Not everyone that wears a MAGA hat is a racist, but some of them are. It depends. Position 2: Everyone that wears a MAGA hat is a racist If this is what we are arguing about, I have to say that position 2 seems to be the tougher one to support and substantiate. It is a claim that requires more evidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I would argue that it doesn’t personally mean anything to Trump. It’s just a catchphrase. What point in history would better serve Trump?
