"Stolen" is key. America First was from the Isolationists (Charles LINDBERGH), MAGA was used by RAYGUN if not coined by him, on and on that I can't list off the top o'the head. Stealing from others, not original - taking what others created, earned from their own accomplishments and talent.

Notice how his name-calling of his targets are infantile, uninspired, *stupid* - Little Marco, Sleepy Joe, on and on.
