A New York Democratic congressional candidate wants former President Donald Trump's MAGA supporters to go through a "re-education camp" after the 2024 election. Attorney Paula Collins, who is running against GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik in New York's 21st congressional district, based out of northeastern New York state, made the comments during a public Zoom townhall this week, where she added that submitting Trump supporters to "re-education" would be controversial. "Even if we were to have a resounding blue wave come through, as many of us would like, putting it all back together again after we’ve gone through this MAGA nightmare and re-educating basically, which, that sounds like a rather, a re-education camp. I don't think we really want to call it that," she said. "I'm sure we can find another way to phrase it." The Democrat sent an email to Fox News Digital, further expounding her statement. "We currently have lawmakers, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, who misquote or misunderstand the law," Collins told the news outlet. "Even if MAGA were to be resoundingly defeated, we would need to engage in widespread civics education, which both red and blue voters acknowledge has been slipping in recent years." She also claimed that Stefanik "does not show a good understanding of the court structure in her home state of New York." While Collins is the latest to suggest such a thing, she is not the only one. In 2023, Clinton said in an interview that members of the "MAGA cult" needed "formal deprogramming." "And sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump who has no credibility left by any measure," she went on, referring to the former president's MAGA slogan. "He's only in it for himself. And when do they break with him? You know, because at some point, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members, but something needs to happen." (Related: Hillary Clinton calls for 'formal deprogramming' of MAGA 'cult members.') Clinton had always shown her "hatred" for Republicans, specifically Trump's supporters. She even labeled them "deplorables" during her failed presidential campaign against the 45th president of the United States. Reporter Dana Milbanks backed Clinton's comments with an article and in an interview during that time. Meanwhile, Eugene Robinson, another reporter, told New York Times Magazine's Nikole Hannah-Jones that there are millions of Americans, almost all white and Republicans, who somehow need to be reprogrammed. "It's as if they are members of a cult, the Trumpist cult and have to be deprogrammed," she said. Also during Clinton's failed campaign, she suggested that Americans needed "fun camps."

Poll: Trump and Biden supporters are divided on several issues

A recent Pew Research Center survey found that supporters of Trump and President Joe Biden are sharply divided over topics described as "woke" or part of the "culture wars." Topics include gender ideology, the allegedly two-tiered American criminal justice system and illegal immigration, among others. The poll, conducted between April 8 to 14 with 8,709 U.S. adults, comes as both candidates are in the middle of their campaigns for what is anticipated to be a controversial election this November. According to the survey, 90 percent of Trump supporters believe gender is determined by a person's biological sex, compared to 39 percent of Biden’s fans. Nearly 60 percent of the president’s supporters believe that gender can be different from the sex assigned at birth, as against only nine percent of Trump backers. Meanwhile, 81 percent of Trump supporters said the criminal justice system is not tough enough on criminals, compared to just 40 percent of Biden supporters who felt the same way. When it comes to illegal aliens and border crossers, 63 percent of Trump supporters said they are in favor of a national law enforcement effort to deport undocumented migrants currently living on American soil, compared to only 11 percent of Biden believers. Twenty-seven percent of registered voters who support Trump believe the legacy of slavery affects the position of Black people in the U.S. today, while 73 percent say it has little to no impact, as per the polling. As for Biden’s supporters, 79 percent said the legacy of slavery is still making an impact on the standing of Black people, compared to 20 percent who said it doesn’t have much of an effect.
