MAGA is the acronym for "Make America Great Again," and the slogan of U.S. President Donald Trump that by 2024 had redefined American politics. "MAGA" refers to the grassroots political movement that elected Trump in 2016 and 2024, and is not always synonymous with Trump himself or all of his policies.
When Trump survived with tremendous bravery the assassination attempt on him on July 13, 2024, MAGA rose in prominence to become the likely dominant political philosophy for the foreseeable future. It can be compared with the tremendous strength of the Jacksonian movement from 1824-1840, and the Lincoln Republicans from 1865-1912.
Ronald Reagan occasionally used the phrase,[1] as did Bill Clinton,[2] but neither made it a dominant political movement as Trump has.
Democrats have found it extremely difficult to attack the slogan or create a viable alternative to it.[3]
