The merger of Trump and RFK Jr. is proving to be the gift that just keeps giving. Perhaps this isn’t surprising because it represents two populist movements joining forces to push back against entrenched powers that owe their loyalty not to the American people but to vast multinational corporations and organizations. The MAGA team has the most voters, but the MAHA team (“Make America Healthy Again”) may bring in the extra voters needed to put Trump over the top—and it’s definitely bringing creative power to the campaign.
Nicole Shanahan is RFK Jr.’s running mate. She is a wealthy woman and a political iconoclast. Like RFK Jr. and others who supported him, she learned in 2020 that the Democrats are not interested in “democracy”—that is, the voice of the people—but are, instead, dedicated to power without regard to the people.
What she also learned is that the media and the Democrat party (but I repeat myself) have consistently lied about the MAGA movement. They’ve presented America with a warped, fun-house mirror picture of MAGA people and their political values.
Now that Shanahan has realized that she has a lot more in common with MAGA than with the Democrat party, she’s throwing her resources into sharing that news with others. Her latest effort is a campaign ad that riffs off of slightly old British travelogues, the ones where the narrator describes traveling to a strange land, one that’s frightening from a distance, only to learn that the inhabitants are good people.
The ad is funny, respectful, filled with wonderment, and very powerful. It pushes back—hard—against the stereotype of MAGA people being pitchfork-carrying KKK clones (never mind that the KKK was the Democrat militia) and reveals them to be people from all walks of life and all races. They are, simply, Americans...

“ What, some may wonder, just happened to our supposedly sacred democracy? A growing group of dissident right-wingers has sought to supply an explanation. United around the premise that the governance of the United States doesn’t function as we’re told it does, this group believes that the country has not operated as a constitutional republic for some time; it is only the façade of one, effectively controlled by a cadre of plutocratic elites, party insiders, unelected bureaucrats, and subservient media apparatchiks—in short, an unaccountable oligarchy.
… without any cabal or specific conspiracy, an elite class captured our major public and private institutions, hollowed them out, set them marching in lockstep against the American middle class, and made a mockery of constitutional “checks and balances.” The resulting “total state” now operates in increasingly flagrant contradiction to the broader interests of the American people and democratic government, while “wearing the old regime like a skinsuit.” -N S Lions “City Journal”
I checked my link and it worked for me, but thanks for posting for those who have problems, maybe due to security settings.
The MAGA people and the MAHA people have a lot in common. I’ve long been concerned about the food industry. I’ve been really concerned about corporate vs family farms. We need both but the mix is way out of proportion.
It is; a monopolistic food supply industry puts our entire civilization at risk. That risk might be political manipulation or starvation (or both). Smaller-scale systems (vs. a bureaucratically run monolith) can respond to negative inputs more quickly/efficiently, which makes them more difficult to disrupt.
Oh my gosh, that’s genius.
The Kennedy Trump union needs more highlighting. MAHA is the soccer mom vote and yoga, vegan bunch.
If Trump doesn’t Hammer that MAHA flag and merchandise it the Democrats will.
Loved the video - just the right tone.
I think the MAHA ideas work (for me) for the most part, especially with things like additives & “GMOs” (try buying cereal for your grandkids that they’ll actually eat but aren’t full of this crap) and vaccines.
And they have a greater variety of crops. There is entirely too much soy and soy oil in our food.
