CNN is upset that the President of the USA wore a hat that said "USA". I guess they don't have anything else to complain about so they just keep looking for anything to bash Trump about.

I guess some people raised their eyebrows at the fact that Mr. Trump sells said hats on his website:


https://shop.donaldjtrump.com/collections/headwear


$40 a pop.


However, he did not actively shill the hats during his visits, so no harm done, in my mind.


I have no doubt that if Mr. Obama had worn hats that he was selling, people would be of the same mind. I doubt anyone would have started a thread condemning Mr. Obama, as President, for wearing hats that he was also selling. No doubt at all.

It just goes towards his campaign, which rents out space in Trump properties and spends other money on Trump businesses.

North Korea is launching ballistic missiles over Japan, Houston is underwater, racial tensions are high, crime is out of control, etc, etc, and CNN honestly thinks Melania's shoes and Donald's hats require news coverage? What a sad, sad, sad lot of losers they are.

Obama sold BS and people paid for it and ate it up like a sandwich without the bread. Lie after lie never went out of fashion as long as he was in office. No one who bought his BS has any credibility to complain about lying.

Ah, yes. CNN says something negative about Trump, and immediately many City-Data Trump supporters are outraged about it. Creating a new thread about CNN in order to bash liberals, as if every registered democrat cares what type of hat Trump has on.

For the record, ethically, I think it's inappropriate to wear clothing as POTUS that you are trying to sell online. But I don't care that much, it doesn't actually bother me. I'd never create a new thread to complain about it.

If I created a new thread for every time Breitbart had a meaningless anti-democrat story I'd take up the entire first page of the political section.
