Good point.
Surprised?
Don’t be.
This is today’s America.
See? It has no context. It is simply meant to inflame conservatives. It worked.
If it's someone he backed then it's electioneering.
If it wasn't a polling place it wasn't illegal but it sure is telling!
Yep, if I can’t even get the general location without clicking, goodbye, no click for you.
The answer is no
State laws and interpretations of laws vary. Some states ban only advocacy of spefically-named candidates, so MAGA would be ok even if Trump was on the ballot. Others define electioneering more broadly. And of course, local officials can be clueless or power-hungry.
Tried to find those pictures from Philly where the huge Biden Harris “sample ballot” posters are on the wall outside of the polling place.. Google has scrubbed those images.
Yes, see the red diamond shaped polling place marker on the brick wall and people standing in line.

What is political about ‘MAGA?’
Maybe we should distribute hats that say BLMAGA.
He did not get threatened for wearing a MAGA hat - was threatened with arrest for wearing clothes that advertise a candidate when trying to enter a polling place - which is, and should be, illegal.
And what would you have done if the cop would have slapped leather?
Are you quick on the draw?
This is a cha ching moment.
anarcho-tyranny.
Several years ago I walked out of a 7-11 saw my truck door open with a cop bent over in it looking under the seats. I walked up behind him and asked him WTF do you think you’re doing. Well it was on from that point, he kept telling me he was going to arrest me, I kept saying do it. the argument escalated to the point where he called for backup. The situation changed dramatically once the other cop explained the law to him. I still regret I didn’t file a police report the next day saying I was missing something out of my truck.
The MAGA hat has no official candidate name or party on it. Would the cop enforce the law against a "Yes we can!" hat? A pink pussy hat?
If yes, then it's all good.
It would be nice to know where this event happened. More likely some liberal stronghold, but this is a country of over three million square miles and 330 million people.
