“Trump 28” Hat Explained
Eric and Lara Trump addressed the viral “Trump 28” hat circulating on social media, explaining it was a prank aimed at trolling the media. Eric Trump shared,
“So, after about 12 hours of them melting down, she’s like, ‘We’ve got to keep this going somehow,’ and she comes up with it. She’s like, ‘we need a slogan,’ so it became ‘Trump 2028, rewrite the rules.’ It’s easier to troll the media in this country than it is to manipulate my 6-year-old.”
