Some supporters of the president have been accused of rhetoric similar to Donald Trump's fierce loyalists.

Some supporters of Joe Biden have been accused of being “Blue MAGA” for their staunch defense of the president in the wake of the CNN debate.

While there is no official definition for the term, Blue MAGA has been used to describe those who are fierce advocates of the so-called “vote blue no matter who” initiative and are not willing to criticize Democrats in any way.

The term has reemerged on social media in the wake of 81-year-old Biden’s languishing and stumbling debate performance against Donald Trump on June 27. This has led to many, including Democrat figures, calling on Biden to end his 2024 campaign in order to allow a new candidate to face-off against 78-year-old Trump in November.

      Some oligarchs are trying to remove Biden, some oligarchs are trying to retain him, and we have virtually no say in the matter, so there’s no point in getting invested in this inter-oligarch drama.

        I love watching all the media effort and all the money being spent to turn public opinion, while so many of that very public try to convince us that our opinions don’t matter

          Studies show that our opinions don’t matter. BBC, 2014: [Princeton & Northwestern] Study: US is an oligarchy, not a democracy

          The US is dominated by a rich and powerful elite.

          So concludes a recent study, external by Princeton University Prof Martin Gilens and Northwestern University Prof Benjamin I Page.

          This is not news, you say.

          Perhaps, but the two professors have conducted exhaustive research to try to present data-driven support for this conclusion. Here’s how they explain it:

          Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organised groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on US government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence.

          In English: the wealthy few move policy, while the average American has little power.

            So they’re spending billions on influence campaigns for fun? Yeah, that makes sense.
