I have never seen a MAGA hat being worn IRL, nor have I ever seen a Trump sticker on a car (but have seen plenty of Bernie and Hillary stickers) or other signs on display.

I do know a few people who voted for Trump via private conversations, but I haven't seen anyone outwardly supporting Trump in the public environment.

Go east or south a bit. I drive to Richland and Portland a lot and you'll see plenty.

Parkland, Florida.

Never seen a MAGA hat, but I've seen plenty of Trump bumper stickers and lawn signage.

I am thoroughly convinced every Seattle citizen is going straight to heaven. I have always met amazing people from Seattle.

Have you never gone more than like 15 miles out of Seattle in any direction?

I live in Brooklyn, NY and I saw someone wearing a MAGA hat. Yeah, that surprised me. Didn't expect anyone from here to openly support Trump.

I live in the DC suburbs so I only see it on tourists. I go back home to the parts of Western PA that swung heavily for Trump and you don't see it on random passersby much, though. They know what the hat is, they only wear it to intimidate and not for day wear on their home turf.

Probably need to get away more from the Puget Sound. Head more East or West and you'll definitely see some as I saw a couple when I camping near Port Angeles this past week.

I just moved from rural OR and never saw a MAGA hat. Did see a few bumper stickers and a shirt occasionally.
I'm now in AZ and it's too hot to go outside, so haven't seen anything here yet.

I've only seen the hat twice in public, once was on some blonde chick at a Chipotle, the other was on some college aged kid in the Air and Space museum in D.C. Both were during the election cycle too, haven't seen one since.

Now I live in the red state of Idaho, and I see trucks with bumper stickers and houses with signs in front of them, but never the red hats. It is weird.

I'm in Snohomish County and have seen a few Trump signs in the past. There was a big one for a long time on Highway 2 just before Snohomish but the guy finally took it down.
Also I was in Bellevue during the election and there were some Trump supporters on a few street corners.

The PNW is very racist outside of the bigger cities. You must have never left the city by a car before? Also just travel east a bit in Oregon or Washington. You will see a lot of gun fanatics and Trump supporters by the droves. It actually makes feel very uncomfortable driving through some of these towns when travelling as a POC.

Saw some MAGA hats in the Lehigh Valley, but that was back in 2015 during the run-up to the primaries.

You need to go to rural counties to see that shit now.

I live in a Chicago suburb and have seen a few trump bumper stickers and a couple trump signs before the election. I also occasionally see a confederate flag or bumper sticker in Chicago/ suburbs. It's weird man.

There was one house that I sometimes pass that had a big handmade sign that just said "TRUMP" for a while. A couple months after the election I saw that someone had thrown a bucket of red paint all over the sign and a few days later it was gone completely.

Also I've seen big huge F-150s with Hillary stickers and I've seen Priuses with Trump stickers. One time when I was still living in Norfolk I saw a bright yellow F-150 with the sticker "don't blame me, I voted for Hillary!" on it, thought it was funny. It truly is a weird world.

I live in the north suburbs of Chicago and the first time I saw a MAGA hat was when I was in DC a month ago.

I said it in the other thread.

Decent people don't wear those hats out, even in the reddest red state.

It is like a confederate flag.

There are gun shows near where I live. Blue area, so they don't dare wear the hats, but holy hell the T-shirts are straight out of a Trump Rally.

first time I saw a MAGA hat was like 30 mins outside of austin at this BBQ joint

It was surreal, must be what it felt like for Alan Grant to see his first Dinosaur in Jurassic Park 1. Old yet horrifying.

OP really is in a bubble.

I'm in rural Ohio too. Almost everyone here thinks Trump is the greatest thing ever. Like he's finally putting the country right after the nightmare Obama years.

I'm finding it really, REALLY hard to live here anymore.

In Texas. Seen a MAGA truck. "Lock her up", "crooked Hillary", "build the wall with their bones", confederate flags, "obummer" stickers. Cartoon level shit. Parking lot of a Baytown Buc' ees. Would have taken a picture if I had the presence of mind, but i was floored.

I've seen these in Seattle. Had an Uber driver several months back who was all MAGA'd out, too.

This was in Belltown, too. I wasn't in a suburb or anything.

Been living in San Diego since March and so far it hasn't been as Republican as I expected. Lot of Military in the area and I see more trucks driving around with giant American flags than I did in Seattle. Don't even see a lot of Trump bumper stickers. Worst one I saw was a car at a gas station about how like 23 countries have banned bumper stickers, so don't make America the 24th.
Yep, never seen any either so far in Seattle and other surrounding areas (Tacoma, Kent, Bellevue).
Never saw a MAGA hat in those places either (never spent THAT much time in Tacoma or Kent), but those two places especially have a lot of those "rural Trump voter" types. Former friend of my fiance was a full on "Hilary has had people killed, Chem Trails" conspiracy theorist, and had a friend who straight up had their own gun-nut compound.

Lot of totally casual N-Word usage in those parts too.

Resident of Charleston, WV here. Can't go for a drive without seeing one or two Trump stickers on someone's car— I did see some Hillary and Bernie stickers for a while after the election though.

One of the flea markets around here bothers me though. One person sells a bunch of embarassing anti-Obama and anti-Hillary merchandise, it's shameful.
