"MAGA" stands for "Make America Great Again," a political slogan and movement most recently popularized by Donald Trump during his 2016 presidential campaign. It represents a nationalist and nativist ideology centered on the belief that the United States was once a great nation but has declined due to foreign influence, immigration, multiculturalism, and globalization. The movement supports "America first" policies, including economic protectionism, reduced immigration, and a return to traditional American values. MAGA is closely associated with Trump's political base and has a confrontational and partisan character in American politics. The term also refers to the Trump supporters and their political identity. The slogan has roots dating back to Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign but was redefined and popularized by Trump in 2016.
