From what I see and read, there are basically two MAGAs.
One is the version created by the Left to attack Trump. The Left wants to discredit the movement, the same way Democrats and RINOs worked to dissolve the TEA party movement. People today have been conditioned to think of the TEA party as a bunch of extremists who hated government, but the Taxed Enough Already movement was popular with ordinary Americans and simply wanted accountability in government with new people elected who were not obsessed only with their careers.
This is because the MAGA movement is even older. 'Make America Great Again' goes back to Reagan's time, and Trump appropriated it because he remembered it's resonance with Americans. The Left has been lying about MAGA values for the better part of forty years, and the RINOs with them because of the potential for real change.
Since the time of Reagan, the RINOs and Democrats have lied and lied, calling conservatives 'Nazis', 'Elitists', 'Racists', and every slimy insult they can think off, oddly very often projecting their actual behavior into an attack of conservatives.
I agree that there is a difference between the MAGA movement and classic conservative thought, but they are not opposed to each other. MAGA is focused on returning America to its founding values, a focus on individual rights and a duty for government at all levels to be accountable for their actions, including taxes and border security.
