Looks like the Dems have a new buzzword thanks to their idiot occupying the WH. Agree with Dems or you're a "MAGA Republican" :rolleyes:

Here's the thing: I'm NOT a Trump supporter. I am however a "Make America Great Again" conservative. And if "Make America Great Again" is being played as something bad? Maybe some on the right should point out the meaning of the term and ask what the problem is with it.

This is TOO easy, yet ... crickets chirping from the right.


Georgia Democrat Rep. Hank Johnson claimed "MAGA Republicans" descended on school board meetings in a similar manner to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot during a committee hearing.
On Wednesday, the House Committee of the Judiciary met to discuss H. Res. 1238 which requested President Biden "provide certain documents to the House of Representatives relating to the October 4, 2021 memorandum issued by the Attorney General entitled Partnership Among Federal, State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Law Enforcement to Address Threats Against School Administrators, Board Members, Teachers, and Staff."
In October, Attorney General Merrick Garland originally sent a memorandum on ongoing protests at school boards regarding coronavirus guidelines and critical race theory. Garland’s memo was in response to the National School Boards Association's (NSBA) letter that likened these protests to "domestic terrorism," (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/parents-respond-doj-nsba-domestic-terrorist) leading to intense backlash from parents and Republican lawmakers. By February, Fox News exclusively reported that the head of the NSBA had advanced notice of the memo, suggesting coordination between the NSBA and the federal government against protesters.

Instead of discussing potential coordination, Johnson attacked the parent protestors as "MAGA extremists" and criticized Republican lawmakers for bringing up the topic.

And to think he's preferred to Cynthia McKinney. Quite clearly a "lesser of two evils" vote.
