I wore a Trump hat to a doctor’s visit. The doctor made a strange comment, he was obviously on the opposite political point that make me uncomfortable. What shall I do on my next visit?

You have every right to see your doctor, and express you opinions with your costume, and we do live in a a mostly free country, so you have a right to fart loudly and repeatedly at a tea party, after showing up wearing shorts and no shirt, then standing on a chair and loudly signing Die Fahne hoch (the anthem of the Nazi Party) while handing out ultra right wing anti-feminist propaganda literature, printed by your local Misogynist Missionary Ministry. Up to you.

Taking one side or another — like wearing a maga hat to a professional appointment, is intentionally provocative, and is a perverse assertion of “freedom of speech.” Most adult men know to take off their hats indoors, and do so. Wearing an intentionally divisive highly recognizable brightly colored hat in someone else’s professional space is rude and constitutes a challenge. Doesn’t matter if it’s Trump or the Proud Boys, or pro-choice or pro-life, or an endless list.

The uniform makes the man. The man picks the uniform to make a statement. The US president is quite controversial, and many folks fear harm from him, and many others see him as kind of savior.

If you were to bet, will Canada bend over to Trump's America demands or remain inflexible until the last day of his Presidency on January 20, 2029? Will America or Canada win this geopolitical arm-wrestling? I'm rooting for America.

I wouldn’t want you to sit in my waiting room with a Klan hood or Porno hat, or Pro Choice Burn in Hell banner. You might as well be shouting “Look at me, I’m special, or at least I’m better and smarter than you, lame libtard!
