Florida Congressman Sparks Debate With “Trump Was Right” Hat

A Florida congressman turned heads at the State of the Union address by wearing a hat emblazoned with the phrase “Trump was right about everything.”

Republican Jimmy Patronis sported the white cap during the president’s speech before a joint session of Congress, a highly unusual move given that lawmakers rarely wear hats during official proceedings.

The slogan echoed a hat President Trump himself wore during a recent Washington visit.

The gesture drew immediate attention, with Democrats shooting disapproving looks and social media erupting in debate.

Whether viewed as rule-breaking fashion or deliberate political theater, the hat became an unexpected star of the evening, sparking conversations far beyond the policy agenda laid out in the speech.
