Make America Great Again (MAGA) is a political movement in the United States (US) that was founded in 2015 by Donald Trump. Initially a faction within the Republican Party (GOP), MAGA supported the campaign of Trump in the 2016 American presidential election and promoted paleoconservative values.[1] After Trump was elected the President of the United States (POTUS), MAGA supported his presidency. MAGA later supported his attempt at reelection in the 2020 American presidential election,[2] and again in the 2024 American presidential election.[3]
Several offshoots of MAGA have developed since the formation of the movement. In 2020, Kanye "Ye" West split off from the mainstream MAGA movement and ran for POTUS in spite of Trump's own running.[4] Ye is again running in 2024, bringing several factions of MAGA with him.[5] Many MAGA Republicans split from the GOP in response to the neoconservatism of the Republican National Committee (RNC), instead joining the Libertarian Party and heading the paleolibertarian Libertarian Party Mises Caucus (LPMC). In 2022, Haz Al-Din synthesized MAGA Communism as a Marxist-Leninist slogan that recognized the working-class MAGA tendency and supported Trump as a malign sovereign.[6]
