Strategists, pollsters and think tanks affiliated with Liberals and Democrats spent six months developing the “ultra MAGA” label that President Joe Biden began using against Republicans ahead of a tough midterm election.
Washington Post He said on Friday:
Biden’s attempt to tailor the MAGA brand as a political attack was unintentional. It came out of a six-month research project led by Biden’s adviser Anita Dunn and liberal group Center for American Progress Action Fund to find the best way to target Republicans.
A survey and study by the focus group of Hart Research and Global Strategy Group found that MAGA was viewed negatively by voters — more negatively than other phrases like “Trump Republicans.”
In war zones, more than twice as many voters said they were more likely to vote for someone labeled as a “MAGA Republican.” The study also found that this statement reflected broad voter consensus that the Republican Party had become more radical and power-hungry in recent years.
Message He noted that conservatives have since provided the label, and former President Donald Trump’s Super PAC has been selling “superMAGA” T-shirts for $45.
It is not yet clear whether gambling will work. Outgoing White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki defended President Biden’s use of the offensive line, telling reporters on Thursday, “The President is not afraid to say what he sees as extreme positions that don’t apply to what Americans represent. for. “
Known for praising Chinese tyrant Mao Zedong and giving advice to disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, Dunn returned to the White House in late April. Shortly after, President Biden started using the “ultra MAGA” line.
