At least according to the shitheads of the world. :rolleyes:
I find it unbelievable that people are still getting assaulted over wearing a Trump hat. Either verbal assault to full on physical assault.
Then you have instances like this where people are talked down to, talked negatively about, called a "disgrace" because they chose to wear a hat. Pretty dang absurd.
And then you have guys that have been cheered on as hero's on the ice over the college team defeating the professional Russian team back in 1980! "Do you believe in miracles?"
But now, times have changed. And none of them should say they regret it. That's absurd too. Just because OTHERS can't handle seeing someone in a red hat.

Miracle on Ice captain Mike Eruzione regrets wearing MAGA hat at Trump rally after blowback
Mike Eruzione, the captain of the 1980 Miracle on Ice U.S. national hockey team, explained why they donned “Keep America Great” hats while attending a rally for President Donald Trump during its 40th anniversary weekend.
And he was surprised it drew such blowback, noting if they could do it over, they would.
“If we knew we were going to piss off this many people, we probably would not have put the hats on,” Eruzione, 65, told the Washington Post. “That’s the big question here. A lot of the stuff I got was, ‘You guys said it’s not political, but when you put the hats on, you made it political.’ ”
Eruzione scored the winning goal against the Soviets, making him a hero along with the rest of the national team, but he’s now receiving scores of angry messages.
