KENT COUNTY, Mich. — Subtlety was never the intent of the wedding decor for Audra and Jeff Johnson's nuptials. The couple married on July 4th in Kalamazoo, surrounded by friends and family donned in "Make America Great Again" hats.

“It looked like America threw up all over my wedding and I’m not sorry," bride Audra Johnson told WXMI.

Johnson says in addition to celebrating their love, she and her husband decided to use their wedding day as an opportunity to celebrate President Donald Trump. No detail was overlooked, down to the groomsmen's 'don't tread on me' cuff links. Each reception table featured a petition for an anti-abortion "heartbeat bill."

Why is this even a story? Let me guess, some idiot relative showed up, got immediately butt-hurt, left in a huff, and started scheming instead of letting it go because that’s how idiot liberals roll.

“Couple receives backlash for hosting MAGA-themed wedding”

The headline doesn’t match the facts in the article. More stupid propaganda from the sluts in the Nazi media.

Michiganders are tough, and won’t put up with leftist crap. Don’t think so? Well, show up in Michigan bar and announce you’re going to take away everyone’s guns. You’ll set a record for beer bottles busted over your head.

Groom’s father is a dick. The couple doesn’t care.

They should have sent an invitation to Trump and his family. Maybe someone would have responded.

I have the feeling there is more to the story on the father who refused to attend. My guess: he doesn’t like the wife and has a poor relationship with his son, regardless of this MAGA wedding.

It’s a special day and I agree that is very tacky. Families come from all different backgrounds and beliefs. Personally I think they did it to be in the news.

To liberals, being neutral in matters, instead of oppressing whites and giving unfair advantages to people of color in the name of making it fair, IS racist oppression.

Not everyone in the couple's life was as accepting. The groom's father refused to attend. "He sent us a text message," Johnson said. "It said, ‘As long as you support that racist in the White House, I won’t be attending your wedding.

His own son’s wedding? Skipping that said more about him than it said about Trump.

I could still say the bridesmaids’ dresses are atrocious.

That MAGA bride's dress is awesome. The bridesmaids' dresses are extremely unflattering to the ladies wearing them. Most unfortunate ...

All anyone has to do is watch Apprentice to know much about Trump.

Not hard because she was wearing the plain red hate she was asked to wear.

Personally, I believe that the only appropriate theme for any wedding is the love of god and the prayer that he bless the union with children.

The father was an fool not to attend his son’s wedding but people will be fools from time to time. He has the rest of his life to regret a poor decision.

“Johnson said if she were invited to a President Barack Obama-themed wedding, she would be happy to attend.”

Give it a week and they’ll get an invitation.

the wife states in the video that part of their motivation was to refute the stereotype that only whites support Trump (since her husband is black and she is Filipino).

They self-identify as African-American and Filipina.

They can make cushion-covers or napkins out of them later.
