Make America Great Again (MAGA)
All You Need To Know About MAGA
Make America Great Again (MAGA) is one of the defining features of Donald Trump’s campaign for president when he first ran in 2016. The slogan was emblazoned in white letters on bright red hats worn by himself and his supporters and it worked.
Trump used the slogan “Make America Great Again” to secure victory in the 2016 presidential election against Hillary Clinton who was the Democratic Party candidate. It was so successful that he trademarked the follow-up phrase, “Keep America Great” for the 2020 election.
Unfortunately, victory was stolen from President Trump and the “Keep America Great” didn’t get to enjoy the massive popularity its predecessor had. It’s perhaps the reason why Donald J. Trump has decided to revert to the Make America Great Again slogan for the 2024 election.
Origins of MAGA
Donald Trump in an interview published in the Washington Post explained how he came up with the famous MAGA slogan. He stated in the interview that he initially thought of it after the Republican loss in the 2012 presidential election.
The loss caught many Republicans by surprise since they believed that their nominee Mitt Romney would have beaten the incumbent, President Barack Obama. At that time, Trump was considering ways to brand a run for president as a revival of the Republican Party and the United States at large.
Trump then decided that he wanted to play a bigger role in the Republican Party the day after Obama won reelection. Trump first considered We Will Make America Great when brainstorming slogans before settling on Make America Great Again, which he successfully trademarked just before the 2016 presidential campaign.
Meaning of MAGA
“Make America Great Again” was the promise that Donald J. Trump made consistently throughout the 2016 presidential campaign cycle. It was a pledge to return the country to an era of prosperity and world leadership it had lost over the years.
The slogan is not only a promise but also a call to action to get rid of the tarnish and enhance the luster of this great nation. Trump insisted that poor decisions made by previous presidents in the face of challenges necessitated turning the page in the country’s history.
One of the greatest challenges that Trump highlighted was the problem of illegal immigrants, particularly those from south of the border who are considered criminals along with Muslim newcomers that are considered a threat to national security.
Campaign Use
The Trump campaign sold bright red hats emblazoned with the slogan, “Make America Great Again” in white letters during the campaign. At rallies, Trump’s supporters chanted the slogan. On Twitter, the hashtag #MAGA became so widespread that people regularly refer to Make America Great Again in its shorthand in both writing and speech.
Controversy
The MAGA hashtag and hat became, and remain symbols for Trump support and are very divisive. Hillary Clinton, his opponent in the 2016 presidential election, and Barack Obama, the former president, denounced it for implying that the country wasn’t already great.
Other political critics have claimed that the slogan glorifies the 1950s when the economy may have been booming but minorities and women were more marginalized. Trump supporters, on the other hand, believe that the slogan refers to a return to an America with many decent blue-collar manufacturing jobs.
The truth is that the “Make America Great Again” isn’t intended to imply that the United States isn’t great. Instead, it is aimed at rallying patriots to help restore the country to its former glory where it led the world in all aspects – culturally, economically, and politically.

The “Make America Great Again” slogan was obviously great and helped propel Trump to victory, but it’s still kind of divisive. Unfortunately, we need to secure every vote possible for Trump since we witnessed the slim margins that Joe Biden won the last election with, in the 2020 election in battleground states.
Let’s go Brandon is a slogan likely to feature more prominently in the 2024 election cycle since it’s more relevant to the current political cycle since it’s a euphemism for “F*** Joe Biden” as opposed to “Make America Great Again.”
