Podcast: What did Ryan Wiggins learn from 2022 election results

The Lincoln Project chief of staff said on WCOA this morning that she believes the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement is done with former President Trump.

“Trump was a symptom of the political movement,” Wiggins said. “He was not the political movement. And I think in a lot of ways that political movement has outgrown Donald Trump. And so, I mean, you’re going to see this continue to play out with these far right-leaning people.”

She added, “I think the midterm said this–‘we want to move back more to the middle.’ I don’t think that this was a referendum that said America wants to move left, or America wants to move into the progressive space. I think what it said was we are more moderate than this extremism.”
