stickman428While not necessarily pro Trump I have had some great conversations with people while wearing this anti Biden shirt. Most recently I wore it at a communal grill at a N.C. beach condo. A man probably in his early 40’s noticed it, laughed and said struck up a conversation about politics and the protests in Richmond VA where he works. He is not a fan of the protests. About 10 min later two highschool seniors walked by the grill area. One saw my shirt and immediately struck up a conversation about how he is a Trump supporter and loved the shirt.
Haven’t had a negative reaction yet. Oddly enough even my democrat/liberal friends (a few of them) found the shirt humorous.
When I see a pro Trump shirt being worn I often go out of my way to get their attention and show support.

Lots of thumbs up, smiles, 'That's AWESOMEs', numerous people wanting to take pictures, and of course a whole lot of 'Trump 2020s' and 'Keep America Great' refrains!

florida boyI don't have any Trump gear yet but I don't forsee any problem. I live about 7 miles outside of town and the country road I travel is covered with Trump signs. No Biden signs at all.

220-9erI don't display anything about my politics but I do like stickmans shirt. Without showing anything about Trump, it must really confuse the lefty's without explaining in a way they can understand.

KLGUYSunday’s I wear my Trump 2020 t-Shirt while out riding my bike, most people don’t notice but those that do give me dirty looks, other than that no reactions.
By the way, I am German, if you think President Trump gets bad press in the states I invite you to watch German TV, it’s a disgrace.

LimaCharlieI bought an olive drab baseball hat at a gun show earlier this year. I says "Veteran for Trump" with Viet Nam campaign ribbons underneath the words.
I have not noticed any negative responses. I have had several positive responses.

oddballI have a MAGA hat, but I've only worn it a maybe half dozen times, no reactions to it really. My favorite hat is a Rush Limbaugh hat, wear it all of the time, I think I've had a couple of positive comments. The clothing item that generated the most positive feedback is this one:

David LeeI have a Trump 2020 mask which I wear some. Friend got me a red,white and, blue Trump wallet. That's pretty cool. I really like the Trump hologram people have in their truck side window which makes it look like he is riding along with them.

Jimbo54I personally never wear clothing with my politics or my support for the 2nd amendment showing but comment positively to those that do. There are far more Trump signs and hats where we live than Biden signs. Now that I think about it, I haven't noticed any Biden signs ay all, but we do live in the right side (both politically and geographically) of Wa. state.

bubbatimeI follow the gray man concept. No stickers, hats, bumper stickers, no need to give people that may not like me, any reason to become triggered and violent . There is literally ZERO benefit from wearing a MAGA hat today.
Some coworker wants to talk politics? It’s sorry, I don’t care about politics and don’t like talking about it. Let’s change the subject.

This is what I do and how I feel. Then again, I live just outside Seattle so the changes of violent reactions to having any Trump gear on my person or property are probably pretty good. Better to just vote for the man and hunker down for the next round of wailing and gnashing of teeth that is sure to follow.

olfuzzyThere's some unusual items at this site.

PHPaulI have a MAGA hat I've been wearing for over a year. In that time I've had one in-your-face negative reaction (hipster...) and maybe a couple of dirty looks that I've noticed.
A few weeks ago, I hung a Trump 2020 banner off my farm sign in the front yard. The trash truck driver likes it so much, he actually got out of the truck and straightened it out when the wind had tangled it up.
Today, I drove 100-ish miles to make a delivery to my grandson. Mrs. PHPaul was pointing out all the various iterations of pro-Trump signs and a conservative estimate would be 100+ of them. We were actively looking and spotted exactly ONE (1) Biden sign, and that includes bumper stickers.
Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

71 TRUCKI live in central Florida. The area I live in is relativity conservative.
With that said I travel to other areas that have some off the wall liberals. For this reason, just so I do not get aggravated or have my car damaged while parked in a parking lot, I have no Trump bumper stickers on my car. I also have no stickers having anything to do with firearms or firearms organizations.
Same reason for no Trump hats or shirts. I do not need people screaming and yelling in my face just to get a rise out of me and try to start something.

maxdogI have been getting some dirty looks in public. I couldn’t figure out why. It was always when I wore my red UH (Univ Houston) hat. A couple of folks approached me wearing angry expressions but once seeing the front of my hat, stopped and reversed.
I’m here in Texas Longhorn country wearing a UH hat but didn’t figure it would generate such fan hatred. Lots of UT fans have a hard on for UH.
Then a friend pointed out that these folks, seeing me from the side, didn’t see the UH logo and probably thought I was wearing a Maga hat. Once seeing the UH logo, they didn’t confront.
I think he’s right. I live in a community about 20 miles from the People’s Republic of Austin. It’s full of whiney leftists.
Doesn’t happen when I wear the Blue UH hat.
I wear the red one all the time now.

ScoutmasterI am retired now, but my last quarter teaching, I somewhat think if I wore a MAGA hat on campus, (or even said the word "Trump") someone would be offended, I would be escorted off by campus security.
