One, exactly one Democrat member of either the House or Senate has figured out what a "movement" is!
The "Tea Party" was a movement, but what about MAGA?
I have listed some of the qualities the MAGA people I’ve met possess. I’ll let you decide if it is a movement or a belief in a way of life.
Who are these people referred to as MAGA:
- An American who wants controlled immigration.
- An American who wants law and order.
- An American who believes in civil rights.
- An American who believes in God.
- An American who respects your right to speak your mind.
- An American who believes in the Constitution.
- An American who has come to realize our legislature is broken.
- An American whose service to others (excluding the legislature) is to be honored.
- An American who has a hard time believing how a lifelong "servant" can be a multi-millionaire.
- An American patriot.
- Americans who work as farmers, doctors, lawyers, cops, soldiers, truckers, housewives, ranchers, businessmen—they can be anybody.
- Most support Trump, not all, seldom all of the time, but as a group, they do not have Trump Adoration Syndrome (TAS) like the TDS those who have yet to understand them.
- They can make fun of each other without taking offense.
- They do not think they are better than you.
- They are open to any meaningful conversation on issues.
- They hate being considered as part of a group or identity like Solomonian, Irish, Latin, Black, or Gay, etc. They are just Americans.
- They are at least 77 million of them, probably way more.
- They generally hang up or have already blocked pollsters.
- They proudly fly the flag.
- They believe in American exceptionalism.
- They absolutely believe that our federal government is wasting billions, if not trillions of dollars every year.
- They believe in Equality (a level playing field).
- They do not believe in Equity (everybody gets an award).
- They believe that the best qualified deserves the job, not the best qualified minority or gay or trans, etc.
- They believe that there are only two sexes: male and female.
- They think that the mutilation of children to change their sex is a criminal act.
- They do not believe a human male can give birth.
- They do not care if you are gay, bi, trans, or Martian; you can be whatever you want to be—that’s your choice.
- They do think that if you come here, you should embrace the American way of life, our culture, and assimilate, learn our language, and not isolate yourself into groups.
Did I miss some things? Undoubtedly. Please feel free to add any qualities, good or bad, I have missed.

Is your hatred of Trump so strong that you think these eight principals are bad for our country?
Since you seem to hate him so much how about you list something positive democrat party has done recently for the American people.
First, they are not masked thugs; they are either officers of the Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) or Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE). They are sworn police officers enforcing the laws that our legislature wrote, which are therefore memorialized in the US Code. They would not have to wear masks if people stopped posting their images online with the caption ‘kill them and their families.’ I seem to remember that they have also always had to wear masks, as shown in the pictures in the newspapers when Clinton’s Attorney General, Janet Reno, sent CBP officers to remove Elian Gonzalez from his home in Miami. According to the DOJ, 70% of those being deported have committed serious crimes on our soil since they have been here. Unfortunately, when out seeking these criminals, others get caught up in the net, and like it or not, they have broken the law, as it is illegal to enter this country without going through the proper process.
To me, the real force behind what is happening is not about DJT but about the way we want to live. As a young boy, I remember always walking several city blocks to or from school, going off to play in Washington Park after school, and being told, ‘make sure you are home before the streetlights come on.’ If Rusty’s or Jeff’s mother yelled at me, said to go home, or scolded me, it was as if my own mother had scolded me. Parents did not have to drive their kids to the school bus stop and then sit there in their car until the bus had come and gone to be sure their kids were safe. I was never scared of being molested or stolen as a kid, and I think kids today should get to experience life without fear. Like it or not, much of the American people think he is taking us in the right direction, whether they like him or not
