The slogan was used in direct opposition against Trump and the republican party
It's reductionist to complain about the phrase in general because you've taken the slogan out of the context it was in. In an ideal scenario the US would have actual candidates that don't want to dismantle democracy, then the slogan would make no sense. Like in Vermont, where Bernie Sanders offered an independent choice that actually believes in leftist democratic values.
Unfortunately, when the choice is between fascism from Republicans or the status quo with Democrats, you best believe the US should vote blue no matter who, because the other option is infinitely worse.
In an ideal scenario there would be no federal government and all states would be split apart.
