great take, my hot button was SCOTUS, hers was abortion (well, we are actually fighting against full blown infanticide now)
but she is 100% spot on
the pernicious lie about MAGA HATS RACIST; are just that, pernicious and dangerous lies
it is an attack & an attempt to marginalize people
it is also an admission that the other side cannot present a coherent argument, so they resort to name calling & branding
Why I wear a MAGA hat these days (and I didn't start out as a Trump fan)
Do you know what radicalizes people? I do, because it recently happened to me.
For people of faith and pro-life advocates like me, sparks igniting outrage and radicalization are everywhere: In the Covington Catholic High School kids who were falsely smeared, ridiculed and then threatened; in the cheers from the left at the signing of a lawthat allows babies to be aborted when they’re mere moments from being born.
In the 2016 election, Donald Trump was not my first, second or third choice. I wasn’t sure I could trust his pro-life promises, which were the only reasons I had to vote for him.

Make America Great Again has nothing to do with slavery or race. The MAGA hat is not the equivalent of a Confederate flag. It has become popular for one reason and one reason only: The political left hates it almost as much as they hate Donald Trump. It’s become the symbol of his presidency.

And this week, I’m purchasing my MAGA hat, and I plan to wear it proudly.
Why?
Because of what happened to Nicholas Sandmann – the high school junior who wore it at the March for Life and became the innocent target of a national media circus. Because babies can now be legally killed in New York up until the moment of birth. And because to celebrate this “victory for human rights,” the Catholic Governor of that state, Andrew Cuomo, had New York City’s iconic buildings lit up in pink, including One World Trade Center.
