Patriot Group Plans Rally To Hit CNN Headquarters with Mass of MAGA Hats
A patriot group is organizing an upcoming rally at CNN’s headquarters to combat the outlet’s negative narrative about supporters of President Donald Trump.
A rally of Trump supporters — sporting “Make America Great Again” hats, of course — is planned for Feb. 16 at the CNN Center in Atlanta.
The rally is being organized by a group called the Main Street Patriots, hoping to debunk the establishment media’s claims about the president’s base.
“Wear your hats and bring pro-Trump signs. We will be walking around CNN Center. We want to show that we are freedom loving Americans that love our country and that we will not be intimidated into not wearing the hats,” the group wrote on its Facebook event page.
The group is angry that the media has painted Trump supporters as racist.
As anyone who watches the news knows, the concerns are valid: CNN political commentators have been open about how they see Trump supporters.
In November, CNN political analyst Kirsten Powers outright said that women who voted for Trump are racist.
“They’ll say, ‘Well, I’m not racist. I just voted for him because I didn’t like Hillary Clinton.’ And I just want to say that’s not, that doesn’t make you not racist. It actually makes you racist,” Powers said.

In the same month, CNN’s in-house Republican strategist Ana Navarro called Trump racist in a bizarre rant.
“Well, I think he’s racist. He called Mexicans criminals and rapists. He called El Salvador and Haiti s—holes,” Navarro spouted on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” just before the 2018 midterms.
And it’s hard to forget about the media’s latest attacks on Covington High School kids for standing still while a Native American activist loudly banged a drum in front of them.
CNN helped paint the false narrative that Covington student Nick Sandmann was somehow being racist for smiling during the Native American’s attention-seeking performance.
Much of the media’s initial reaction to that story was focused on the students’ “MAGA” hats.
In the media’s eyes, wearing a red Trump hat is akin to wearing a white Klan hood, and that’s the perception the Main Street Patriots are attempting to challenge.
“They have equated the MAGA hats to KKK white hoods and other such nonsense,” the group said on the event page.
The hacks at CNN will be unpleasantly surprised to see a large group peaceful Trump supporters outside their headquarters next month.
