MAGA has found a new way to express its fury over the infamous “Epstein files.”
President Donald Trump’s fevered support base has been in an uproar after the Departmnet of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation confirmed in a memo July 6 the disgraced financier kept no “client list” and likely died by suicide while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, rather than being murdered, in 2019—the subject of widespread conspiracy theories among Trump’s supporters.
“We need to burn our MAGA hats, I think that’s a solution. That’s the only language Trump will understand. He needs to be abandoned at this point,” white nationalist and avowed Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes said in a clip from his podcast shared on X. “The message needs to be this: ‘We’re done, we don’t understand. The radical right is f---ing furious. We are done.’”
The MAGA-verse has since taken up Fuentes’ call, posting videos torching their iconic red caps in backyards, firepits, and even on BBQ grills. “We’re not gonna play with these anymore,” one person said in a clip widely shared on X. “MAGA hats are off, America First hats are on.”
