A man and his wife were allegedly assaulted outside a bar in Portland, Oregon over the weekend; telling a local news channel they were “surrounded” and “punched” because of his ‘Make America Great Again’ hat.
“Portland police say a man and woman were arrested early Saturday morning for assault, and the man who was attack says it’s all because of his ‘Make America Great Again’ hat,” reports Fox Oregon. “At around 12:50 a.m., officers responded to the report of a disturbance at the Growler’s Taproom, located in the 3300 block of Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard.”

“I got mobbed by everybody that was in that bar outside. People came from the inside out – just circled me and my wife,” said Luke Lenzner.
“Surrounding me, like literally surrounding me, pushing me. I’m just trying to get through, trying to stop the person from hitting me, from taking my hat, and then I get sucker punched,” Lenzner told FOX 12.
A similar incident occurred weeks ago in New York City.
“A New York City art gallery owner says he was viciously beaten in Manhattan by a pack of teens for wearing a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat,” reports Fox New York. “Jahangir ‘John’ Turan, 42, says it happened Tuesday evening on Canal Street. He was wearing the MAGA hat that he had purchased earlier in the day at Trump Tower.”
“He says the group of about 15 ‘kids’ yelled ‘F*** Trump’ and stomped on him. One of them smashed his head into a scaffold. Turan says he suffered a fracture in his cheek and a badly swollen eye,” adds Fox.
“I love President Trump. I think he’s doing a great job,” Turan said. “It’s sad to get beat up for wearing this hat. This is America.”
Caricature images of “average Trump supporters” appeared on garbage cans in the Big Apple last year; with the hateful artwork referring to GOP voters as “trash” in the nations’ largest city.

“He kept his promises, he is passionate about America. He wants to keep us safe, I am tired of people hating on him. He is doing his best to defend us,” Alan Machapento, a New Jersey native, told Fox News. “I am watching the Dow, we have the lowest unemployment ever.”
“From the moment he said he was running, I was a Trump fan,” said another supporter. “He is not a politician, and I am so glad my grandson is going to grow up in an America that is great.”

“There are a lot of mothers and women sitting in jail and they are (working on reforms),” said another woman on the President’s efforts to promote criminal justice reform. “We need to believe in America and we are on the right track. It is Congress that is not.”
“The Fake News doesn’t report it, but Republican enthusiasm is at an all time high. Look what is going on in Orlando, Florida, right now! People have never seen anything like it (unless you play a guitar). Going to be wild – See you later!” tweeted Trump.

A NEW LOW: Grown Man THROWS Drink in Teen’s Face, Steals Pro-Trump Hat
The liberal rage towards President Trump and his supporters reached a stunning new low this week after footage surfaced of a grown man throwing his drink in a teen’s face and running off with his ‘Make America Great Again’ hat.
The 16-year old teenager was attacked in a Texas burger restaurant out of the blue; telling reporters he was quietly eating with a friend when the man approached them and began harassing the young men.
“F*** the president,” screamed the man, adding “You ain’t supporting s***!”
According to Fox News, the adult was reportedly fired from his job after footage of the incident went viral on social media.
“I support my president and if you don’t, let’s have a conversation about it instead of ripping my hat off. I just think a conversation about politics is more productive for the entire whole rather than taking my hat and yelling subjective words to me,” said 16-year-old Hunter Richard.
