Republican candidate Donald Trump’s supporters have built a “MAGA wall” online of memes and social media noise that is overwhelming news about Biden’s economic and policy wins, making it impossible to get Democrats’ message across, Clyburn said in a recent interview in his hometown of Columbia, South Carolina.
Clyburn, who at 83 is arguably the most influential Black political voice in the United States, says Biden’s campaign needs to focus more attention on building a historic ground game filled with “voices and validators” who can energize voters and combat a looming disinformation campaign. "If we are going to be successful in this campaign, we are going to have to have what I call hand-to-hand combat, boots on the ground. We are going to have to do what is necessary to circumvent, or smash through that MAGA wall that is being built on sound bites,” Clyburn said, referring to the acronym for Trump’s Make America Great Again slogan.
Everything the MAGAs post about Biden makes me wish he were who they think he is.
Open borders? I wish.
Taxing the wealthy? I wish.
Defunding the police? I wish.
Completely decriminalizing drugs? I wish.
Socialized healthcare? I wish.
Giving women access to abortion? I wish.
Teaching Critical Race Theory in schools? I wish.
Everything MAGAs complain about is a checklist of what would make a great president. Too bad we’ve never ever had a single candidate in history who’s been remotely like that.
MAGA hates straw man Biden and loves straw man Trump. They couldn’t find their ass with both hands.
Teddy Roosevelt?
Teddy Roosevelt’s critical race theory was, “It is critical that Americans think Filipinos are subhuman so they don’t mind us stealing all their stuff.”
No, he was awful
we are going to have to have what I call hand-to-hand combat
Republicans will hear this and think Dems are threatening actual combat
Then they’ll proceed to masturbate furiously to their Confederate flags.
That helps them hold their form despite a lack of wind. Like hairspray, but for flags.
And they’ll somehow think it’s a bad thing
World war 3 will be fought with memes.
MAGA memes are shitty. They all look like they’re made by the 70-year-old Facebook reader they’re designed for.
They also do the ridiculous fascist thing of trying to paint Biden as an incredibly crafty, incredibly dangerous sleepy dementia-ridden old man and their fans do not see any contradiction there.
Trump and MAGAtrash are routinely portrayed as simultaneously weak and strong too. It’s just the nature of propaganda.
Weak on actual policy except “women and poor will be subservient”, strong as in “never underestimate the power of
stupiduneducated people in large groups, after we algorhythmically injected them with fear."Apologies to the family of George Carlin for the paraphrasing.
