Star Wars icon Mark Hamill perfectly redefined what "MAGA" stands for after a video from 2019 showing former President Donald Trump awkwardly trying to get a kiss from a college student resurfaced.

The moment was captured during Trump's appearance at that year's Turning Point USA Student Action Summit, a prominent gathering of young conservatives spearheaded by Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. At the time, C-SPAN noted in a caption that Trump "Pulls girl toward himself and tries to get a kiss."

The video resurfaced and went viral on X, formerly Twitter.

It was later shared by Parkland shooting survivor and gun control activist David Hogg, to which Hamill responded:

"MAGA: Making All Gag Again."

Many appeared to appreciate the new acronym because they were similarly grossed out.


Hamill's latest jab at Trump is fitting considering he has a long history of criticizing the former president.

Many on the right have a special disdain for Hamill, an outspoken liberal activist who has made headlines for criticizing Trump and the GOP on a regular basis.

In April, Hamill was attacked by Trump fans after mocking Trump's history of verbal flubs. Hamill said Trump's "frequent verbal catastrophes" make it difficult to take the former president seriously when he spends considerable time recovering from his own gaffes.

Hamill has also jabbed Trump over claims he would present evidence of election fraud. After Trump—who has failed to present any evidence to support his "Big Lie" that the 2020 election was stolen from him—Hamill teased Trump's suggestion that there is an "irrefutable report" that will exonerate him.

Most recently, Hamill called out Trump after the former president "jokingly" told his supporters, "I don't care about you. I just want your vote." Hamill later observed that Trump had "accidentally" told the truth about what he thinks about his own supporters.
