Does anyone else do this? I wear mine everyday usually. It’s a great conversation starter regardless of political affiliation. You’d be surprised how many closet trump supporters I meet from all races and walks of life who are just scared to show their support in public. It’s almost like we are this generation’s counter culture.

Pass on that but I applaud your bravery. My car would be firebombed if I did that

It is a shame that Trump supporters have been made to feel like they stink as they shop at walmart.

I wore mine in public for a while before the election. An older man at the mechanic shop struck up a conversation with me about how he appreciated it and thought Trump would do a great job, even if he disagreed with the way he handled some things.

I live in the country on the outskirts of a southern,predominantly black city of 50k (65%)..i have forgotten I was wearing mine in town until I got back home.. never been treated any certain way, have had old people tell me they like my hat, but black people always treat me with respect and I'm pasty as hell..i think a lot of southern working blacks are MAGA

I got a couple Mossy Oak MAGA hats that I wear around sometimes. I live in a deep red county in Tennessee so it's not a big deal. This is Trump country. I do live close enough to Nashville and have wore it there before. Nothing exciting to mention happening. I usually get a couple of grins and a few head nods.

The only time I've worn it in public other than Trump rallies is on the beach in Navarre.

It depends on where you go here. I won't wear shite like that to Hollywood because of the mentally ill loons there. It's mostly fine where I live (wealthy area) and the further out of L.A. you get the less concern of getting assaulted over it is.

Went to a Kid Rock concert a month or so ago here and it was full on MAGA. Wore my Reagan Bush '84 shirt and had people asking to take pictures with me and high fiving the whole night.

It's kind of weird how some people see that and think you've had it for 35 years.

Took my 78 year old dad out running errands and he was wearing his MAGA hat. While in the store there was a group we saw in different aisles several times. Didn't think much of it. Walking out to the truck, from like 100 yards away, someone yelled "frick Trump." Looked to see who said it and it was someone in the group we saw in the store. Just thought it was funny they waited until they were about as far away from us as they could be before getting the courage to say anything.
