Now Trump has the PETA army on the horizon!
Newly published:
President Donald J. Trump tried on a new personalized Stetson cowboy hat during a “Made in America” event at the White House on July 17, 2017.
Stetson Hats was at the event, since they are a company with products made in America.
The hat presented to Trump was an “El Presidente” — a fur felt hat customized with the presidential seal and the president’s name and “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan, according to the head of Stetson Dustin Noblitt.
Noblitt said that Stetson had also given hats to former presidents Lyndon B. Johnson, Dwight Eisenhower, and Harry Truman (all being presidents with Midwestern/Western roots).
And what does "fur felt" mean?
The 100X El Presidente Fur Felt Western Hat is made from beaver fur felt & cashmere construction, with a 10K gold three-piece buckle set. Stetson's dealers sell the white hat for $999.98, with occasional sales.
Of course, the Trump family has not been shining lights in the animal conservation movement. Yet, the great historical conservatives of our nation were also conservationists.
Onward PETA soldiers....

Was unaware of the history of Stetson and some of the former Presidents. Thanks for elucidating that, Loren. Very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure there were Yankees and Cowboys in Nixon's time, but by now I'd expect the alliances to have shifted somewhat. Whatever the groups are, they won't be the direct descendants of Yankees or Cowboys.

ReplyDeleteThe book Teckgnostic Heresies, by Jack Heart has much about the war of east and west, America. To shine forth is key! 87
