President Trump wore a white “USA” baseball cap as the remains of six service members killed in the war with Iran were carried off an Air Force transport plane. The hat appeared to be a model that retails on the Trump Organization’s online store for $55.

> "For years, presidents and vice presidents from both parties have been criticized for conduct and fashion choices viewed as disrespectful to the military or the office of the presidency." Thank you, Jeff Bezos, for emphasizing that both sides do it. That's the important message of the day!

It does show disrespect. Then again, a former advisor of Trump said he regarded those who died in the service of the USA, "suckers & chumps." So, there isn't much respect there.

Trump is such a chump to not understand the extreme indignity of this. Could it be due to a cognitive issue related to age, or a way to sell more hats, or just another way his narcissism plays out as “I am uniquely special and don’t have to follow the rules.” I think it’s the latter.

He is terrified of the wind whipping away his combover to reveal his bald head. The idiots buying this merch is just a drop in the money bucket now. His family is stealing billions without any scrutiny.

He literally wore campaign merch as the remains of six dead servicemembers were carried off an Air Force plane in front of him. And he kept it on the entire time. His malignant narcissism is utterly unholy.

How is this fat douche allowed to make money off a generic crappy hat that has USA on it? I’m going to start designing 2026 midterm hats and 2028 hats. Fuck it.

Remember being 20? Think of all you’ve done since 20. Now think of dying at 20. No life, no kids; an entire bloodline wiped out. Thats what war does! Trump has wiped out generations of families.

I’m surprised he didn’t call them “losers“ for allowing themselves to be killed, just like John McCain allowed himself to be captured as a POW. The most degrading and insulting words in the dictionary cannot describe how reprehensible he is.

Nothing like modeling a new cap to promote a grift to enrich POTUS. What's next patches on his suits, decals on The Beast limo. But don't forget he is doing while honoring fallen soldiers. He thinks they are saps. Not a dignified transfer of heros.

Time to upgrade the over-worked phrase "draws criticism" when referring to Trump for the more accurate "draws gasps of disbelief"
