As much as I hate to admit it, Make America Great Again was (and still is) a catchy slogan for Trump and his Republican supporters. During the 2016 presidential election, Democrats failed to come up with a exciting slogan that was able to rally voters in the same way MAGA did. Sure, there was "Love Trumps Hate" in response to Trump's troubling rhetoric [1] and "Stronger Together" which didn't quite convey its fundamental message. Now, it appears Democrats are attempting to reshape their narrative with its newest slogan [2]: "A Better Deal: Better Skills, Better Jobs, Better Wages".
Yeah . . . I'm not sold on that one either. It's a bit too wordy, and the internet seems to agree. Twitter user @MattNegrin took matters into his own hands and asked his Twitter followers to come up with a better slogan for the 2018 midterm elections using their last text messages, and the results were pure meme gold. Keep reading to see what we mean, and here's to hoping the Democratic Party can come up with a better slogan before election day arrives.
The last text you sent is the Democrats' slogan for 2018
