Former President Donald Trump sparked a slush of ridicule for the name of his new super PAC – “Make America Great Again, Again”.
The campaign slogan, announced on Monday, was also used by former Vice President Mike Pence, who said the phrase at the Republican National Convention in August 2020 before the election.
Abbreviated to MAGA Again, the campaign is being led by former Attorney General of Florida Pam Bondi, along with National Finance Chair Kimberly Guilfoyle.
“We look forward to building on the successes of the MAGA Action, with our new committee, Make America Great Again, Again!” Bondi said in a press release. “We are thrilled to continue to support America First candidates in the midterms and beyond.”
Twitter users are already joking about the new slogan, one said: “I swear this was a SNL bit or something before it was real”. However, some political pundits are seeing past the humor.
“If their purpose is to make us feel like we’re trapped in an insane asylum with them, it’s working,” said another user, followed by “Just wait until they reveal MMAGAGA (Make Make America Great Again Great Again”.
“Folks getting caught up on hilarity around the idea this is a ‘rebrand’ are missing a basic point,” wrote Washington New York Times correspondent Maggie Haberman on social media, “Trump folks had no way to legally replace Lewandowski, one of two board members of the first super PAC, unless he stepped down, so they’re now forming a new group.”

The only way to make America great again is to prosecute and imprison Donald Trump and every GQP Republican behind the January 6th insurrection. Who’s with me?

In October 2020, Donald Trump suggested a new slogan of “Make America Great Again, Again” so he could sell his cult “more hats”.

The @GOP added $8 trillion to the debt lying to us all the while that it would Make America Great Again. Now they want to use that same debt to destroy America? pic.twitter.com/9PYqYuCnvK
