MAGA hat

The red hat bearing the slogan "Make America Great Again" was released in 2016 as apparel for the first presidential campaign of Donald Trump.

[3][4] Due to it being viewed as an outward symbol of Trumpist identity, it is generally considered inflammatory to wear the MAGA hat in public.

[5][6] In January 2019, it gained notoriety during a highly-publicized standoff between a group of high schoolers wearing the hat and Omaha tribe leader Nathan Phillips.

Due to the perceived racist nature of the incident, actress and activist Alyssa Milano compared the hat to the Ku Klux Klan hood.

[7][8] On December 29, 2022, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in Vancouver, Washington ruled that wearing a MAGA hat is considered protected speech under the First Amendment.
