21. Actually, ... red hats are great for gobsmacking maga if you have steely nerves
Sat May 17, 2025, 02:28 PM
Saturday

1. Wear a generic red hat.
2. maga says some brain-dead thing like "ain't it great!"
3. Make a non-commital response that refers to something specific which you've played out in your mind beforehand.
4. maga makes some bogus claim like "we'll get a tax cut because China will pay the tariffs."
5. "That's why Walmart is raising prices because China pays. Merry christmas."
6. Walk away.

(Easy for me to propose, I'm in Canada, where a red with white hat reminds of our flag.)
