The thing that the MAGA hat represents is great messaging. It won him the race. Its a simple optimistic measage in four words. Its patriotic and hard to argue agaignst. It beat " Im With Her " hands down. BUT at this point any play on the acroynym would be lost on most people. The irony of using the subsitituion of Gracious would be insulting to many who would say your calling them less then gracious.

It's just a shoe. Whether or not it fits is, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder.
As they say, no such thing as bad publicity. Owners are probably counting on the free publicity over the 'outrage' and subsequent bashing of the bar on Yelp.
I've never seen a person wear one of those in public in the flesh.
I think I saw it for the first time when I was visiting family in Maryland around Memorial Day weekend. I went to Panera in a really diverse area, and there was an older man sporting the MAGA hat. It was kinda awkward because the guy at the cash register was Hispanic and he looked a little nervous. He was very professional and the man with the MAGA hat was polite. There were lots of minorities around and you could see that they noticed the hat, but nobody paid him much mind. Everyone got along fine, although it did seem like there was a somewhat unspoken awkwardness.

Maybe it was your own insecurities filtering what you think you saw?
I always laugh when I see MAGA wear.
I'm pretty sure it's Trump who lost control of the message.
Most of the folks on the left that I associate with, thing MAGA is dumb, because America IS great. The folks on the Right I associate with, mainly older, seem to think MAGA means taking it back to a fonder time that they remember.
Same folks thought ISIS was the jv team.
The left contorts all symbols, words and phrases, no matter their positive message, to extreme hate filled distortions. Which they then publicize with media help.
What kind of bar would have a dress code, except for some yuppie high end cover charge establishment.
A bar is a place to drink, an old man's bar, where you stare into your wild turkey 101. What the heck kind of bar would ban a MAGA hat?
They banned a lot of things--graphic tees, hats (not just maga caps), tats...not unusual for certain establisments, even bars. Of course, we know what got the headlines.And the thread title.
