Does a MAGA hat disqualify you from office?

[Green October Z]

But, he is a celebrity

Not an excuse.

He hosted The Apprentice

Being criticised =/= disqualified


Beyond that, I like what Golriz Ghahraman said about it, and I hope the guy doesn't get a lot of votes.
Not because of his "memorabilia" but because of his shitty political views.

"I’m exhausted of the MAGA hat debate without the context of a man who voted as Trump would on every law affecting women and minorities, as recently as two months ago, when he voted for abortion to remain a crime here in Aotearoa."

Things don't exist in a vacuum, and you've left out a pretty significant bit of context.

He hosted The Apprentice

He also participated in pro-wrestling and has worked with Dwayne Johnson, who will no doubt be president someday

Describing yourself as a "bit of an American political junkie" should disqualify you from office.

Why?

Because it's ridiculous and frankly insulting.

Very low energy. Everyone who hasn't blacked up or worn a Nazi uniform at a fancy dress party should be disqualified from office.

He's a little to moderate for your tastes, eh?

Wearing a MAGA hat is like walking around in clown face paint in public. It disqualifies you from being viewed as smart or moral.

On the contrary. This is a key demographic for psychopaths and serial killers and so it shows great suitability for political office.

Swear nobody reads the whole OP

Despite Muller talking in that article about how depressing and polarised he saw US politics becoming, and how he actively refused to put on the hat for a photo

That doesn't disqualify him. It means he has balls if he refused to put that hat on after being told to.

Because it is. You don't have to respond to everything with "why?", you can contribute your own thoughts.

No, that's Northumbrian independence

As a general rule, I would never vote for a person who unironically wore a MAGA hat. If this guy's story is true and he just likes American political memorabilia, I could understand that, although he should have had the foresight to realize it's a bad look.

And to think I've been accused of threadjacking!

It should be a requirement for office if you're in the US, but disqualify you from office if you're anywhere else in the world.

But what if we want people who actually care about Americans to run for office?

[Nobel Hobos 2]

It does not give me a good impression of the guy, but maybe he thought MAGA hats wouldn't catch on, and would become genuinely collectible. Something like that. Never ascribe to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Here's a thought. Weren't MAGA hats originally part of Trump's campaign? Didn't some of the price go to his campaign? And aren't US campaigns prohibited from taking foreign money?

Don't be silly - the current real life comedy show is far too entertaining to allow that.
