The ubiquity of MAGA hats at the Hispanic Inaugural Ball signifies their transformation from a symbol of an outsider movement to a mainstream representation of American politics. The article explores how these hats have become woven into the fabric of the nation, reflecting the aspirations, fears, and political landscape of a significant portion of the population.
The red MAGA hats were everywhere and seemingly worn by every kind of person. The ecstatic Trump supporters descended on the nation’s capital wearing their signature headgear bearing their movement’s rallying cry: Make America Great Again. They wore those hats as they waved American flags, wrapped themselves in celebratory bedazzled jackets, toasted their electoral victory and huddled in the cold outside the D.C.
The MAGA caps are emblematic of how adaptable this country can be. How forgetful it can be, too. A lot of aggrieved citizens and others with insatiable appetites take cover under those hats, waiting to be welcomed into an increasingly sour, vulgar new normal. Far-right groups roam openly under the banner of MAGA. In the age of dark MAGA, a billionaire’s awkward gesture could quite reasonably be interpreted as something more malign.
Alongside the MAGA hats and the flag-inspired evening gowns and overalls, there were the far-right Proud Boys in their yellow paraphernalia traipsing through the city, just another batch of energized Trump supporters trying to make America … something again. Not quite normal and yet, not quite as shocking as they were when they terrorized the nation’s capital in 2020.
