Wearing Trump gear [View all]

One thing that really frustrates me about Trump voters is their constant display of loyalty through hats, shirts, and other merchandise, even long after the election. I can’t go anywhere without at least one idiot showing off his Trump worship. It is like they do it hoping to rile people up or get into an argument. I remember Republicans accusing Obama supporters of treating him like a god, but I don’t recall seeing people decked out in Obama gear or waving Obama flags—especially not after the election was over. They talk about the need to move on and unite, but how can we do that when they keep shoving Trump in our faces?
