Probably correctly termed "counter-revolutionary", given the self-used terminology of its proponents. [0]

Historically ironic, given MAGA's ideological birth in the Tea Party movement.

I would argue MAGA is somewhat revolutionary from the neoliberal globalist two party consensus in the last 30-40 years. Coastal liberal culture and its components might see itself as revolutionary, woke and so on, but I see it as just a continuation of liberal culture. After all, wokism, or whatever the term is, very comfortably fits in elite coastal liberal culture and that culture has been dominant for decades.
