I think a certain grouping is trying HARD to insert it into the discourse. Case in point, this article, which wraps up a core of an original fair statement (that Biden is being ignorant and stubborn in refusing to acknowledge reality and that that's a problem) in layer upon layer of interpretive dance so as to make the phrase "blue MAGA" fit that situation, even though they acknowledge at the end of the article that it doesn't really make any sense at all.

Everyone knows MAGA and anyone who supports it are complete idiots who've been brainwashed.

They're just trying to do the same thing they've always done which is "See the other side is also just as bad as us! We're all the same."

Same old bullshit coming from brainwashed conservatives from the fascist playbook but it only works on other MAGA idiots because normal people aren't as stupid and gullible as they are.
