An apparent supporter of President Trump got into an argument with a man on a subway train and later pushed him onto the tracks, police said Saturday.

The 24-year-old victim had been accosted by his assailant, who was wearing a “Make America Great Again’’ hat, on a No.4 train on Friday.

Police said the attacker, who is African-American, spewed anti-Hispanic slurs at the victim. They both got off at Union Square, where the victim was shoved off the platform.

If he’s a black man wearing a MAGA hat, shouldn’t the media report him as a “traitor to his race”?

Sounds like a setup. Just so happens to have a MAGA hat on.

Of course. Not even the most deranged Trump haters on msnbc should fall for this.

All but the victim wasn’t killed, right...?

it sounds very much like this pair knew each other well and that the objective is a headline sundering on the Hat.

Smart.

I’ve seen the mugshots but did the media ever do individual articles about every violent criminal who was wearing an Obama t-shirt at the time of his crimes.

Maybe this is the same guy who last week robbed the Danish tourist at knife point of his MAGA hat in New Yoooork.

Hoax is the first thing I thought.

Heck, if anyone in New York wore a MAGA hat, I suspect THEY’D be the ones tossed in front of a train.

According to the Journalist Style Book and the Guide for First Year College Students, only “whites” can be racist.

The photo and racial descriptions need to be re-written.

I’m betting the sign behind him is more reflective than is his hat.

Surprising to see this in the story:

the attacker, who is African-American

What's the old chant? "Black against Brown. Keep us both down"

“Sounds like a setup. Just so happens to have a MAGA hat on”

Next up, it will become the norm for people planning mass murders with guns to first join the NRA. They will wear NRA branded clothing and carry an NRA membership card.

“Hoax?”

OBVIOUSLY - he certainly doesn’t look like a Trump supporter. But the Dems will blame it all on Trump and the media will have a field day.
