They actually want to make America great again, by taxing billionaires out of existence, breaking up all monopolies, punishing greedy CEOs the French way, boosting union memberships, blowing up all oil pipelines and refineries, and bringing down the current capitalist banking system?

Just guessing lol

Just making up a fever dream. Blue maga has a definition and it's not this. It's insisting that we need to have the worst most geriatric candidates for office.

Yeah that's why I was joking and saying "just guessing", glad you can read

DNC would actually win back voters and then some. Probably some red magas too.

Well, that describes me.....but can we not call it "blue maga"? Not loving that name.

Blue MAGA already has a well established definition and has for over a decade

Red MAGA has only been around for barely a decade.

I'll give you that it didn't gain popularity as a pejorative till 2019, but it was being used in 2016-17.
