Krystal Lake, 22, bought the cap to ridicule the Republican Presidential candidate's slogan “Make America Great Again”.She said Trump's slogan did not make room for bigger aspirations beyond the past and that he was dismissive of groups that did not fit his ideal demographic.
After wearing the hat at her Sunday morning shift at DIY store Home Depot in Staten Island in New York she began to receive death threats on social media.
She told the New York Times :
“They were actually threatening to kill me over a hat. I couldn’t believe it. I was calling my best friend and I was like, ‘How is this happening? It’s just a hat.’ ”
When questioned whether she will wear the hat again, Ms Lake said: “Definitely”.
