    Has anyone seen him without a hat on since the rash picture?

    Perhaps his entire head is covered in blisters and the hat is to hide it.

      He’s trying everything he can to make it look like he isn’t a balding, in continent, old bag of bones and cholesterol. He’s literally falling apart and somehow almost half of America still thinks that’s better than ‘old, sleepy Joe’ or ‘warmonger Kamala’.

      Like many, I think they’d be borderline useless too, but at least they wouldn’t be this bad.

      He wears the white hat when he thinks he’s being presidential.

      To him, not wearing “maga” and wearing “usa” should be taken as a grand gesture and we should all clap and celebrate how he’s being bipartisan. Usually it means he’s fucked up really bad and is desperate for people to like him.

      It’s been happening long before the neck rash.

        if it was just a damn red hat it would be less disrespectful because the red hat is kind of his thing. however, disrespect is also his thing, so…

      I think he’s wearing a hat more because with dementia you get more sensitive to light. He’s been sundowning more posting throughout the night on truth social and then falling asleep in meetings during the day. It’s probably why they don’t do a lot of morning events anymore. Everything is always in the afternoon.

    Thought someone actually said something to him, but no it’s just an article about people’s reactions online, and on a shit website at that.

    Your life must be going pretty well if you’ve got the bandwidth to worry about Trump wearing a hat.

      I remember most of the 90s being filled with lots and lots of spittle-flecked rants from the right wing about how Bill Clinton was “disrespecting” the military. They also had a related conspiracy theory they kept propagating about how the military purposefully gave some cue right in front of him (dealing with salutes ) that they disrespected him, too.

      I’m just imagining what that crowd would have done if Clinton wore a hat to something like this. I’m thinking they just might have given themselves aneurysms over it.

      agreed, but

      if they’re going to flip out over a tan suit, which literally means “it’s summer”, we’re going to point out a hat, which means disrespect to the dead.

      I think what you’re failing to consider is that this kind of decorum and protocol DOES mean a lot to conservatives and they fucking know it. Sure it’s by and large moot by it’s own merit, but conservatives for years have obsessed over this shit.

      So if the story reaches more of them because of attention received, all the better. And if they sit on their hands while this and other factors bother them internally, maybe many will quietly avoid voting.

    Throw this onto the pile of ACTIONS the Donvict has taken to show his disregard for the military. He says a lot of things like the liar he is, but his ACTIONS show his actual disgusting character. Incompetent and dishonorable for the Office he holds and the Oath he took.

    Donald Trump is a piece of shit who deserves to rot, but I’m not gonna sit here and pretend like I give a shit about respecting the military in any fashion.
