LETTER TO THE EDITOR / MAGA
Roger C. Kostmayer
Recent marketing reports show that, in spite of two difficult and divisive years that ended with a government shutdown, sales of those red Trump campaign ball caps that say “MAGA” (Make America Great Again) continue to rise. This result doesn’t mesh with polls that track the President’s unfavorable/ favorable ratings or other data. Trump’s favorable ratings have dropped from a high of 46% to the current 39%, meaning that almost two- thirds of Americans gave an unfavorable response. To put this in some historical context, no American President has ever failed to get a favorable rating of more than 50%, until now. So why are hat sales going up when approval ratings are going down?
This statistical mystery is hard to crack. Older male (ball cap wearing) voters express concern that the White House is trying to make Russia, Syria, North Korea and Turkey great again while insulting NATO and our closest allies. And suburban ball cap wearing women massively rejected chaos and corruption in the 2018 Democratic landslide. It doesn’t make sense.
The only polling data that might cast some light on this anomaly, are anecdotal reports that the mysterious rise in MAGA cap sales may have something to do with confusion about the meaning of the acronym. Apparently, younger ball cap wearing voters claim it stands for: “Morons Are Governing America”.

Roger get a life. At least one with your mind, or whatever is “left” of it,open.
The readers of Konklife know by now who’s the ‘morron’ and it isn’t President Trump. He isn’t perfect but he’s the best we’ve got. People deserve precisely what they get, no more and no less.
Another day, another letter congratulating Pres Trump on getting elected. Even after 2 years, the letter writer just loves Pres Trump!
Don’t forget to write the Participation Prize Winner lady a “sorry next time” card. Also send a donation to her Foundation as it needs money. Maybe purchase a “Clinton Foundation” million person march cap with the 2 cat ears.
So Roger, how did this polling work out for you? I bet you believed it too,,,PT Barnum would be proud…
• The HuffPost presidential forecast model gives Democrat Hillary Clinton a 98.2 percent chance of winning the presidency. Republican Donald Trump has essentially no path to an Electoral College victory.
• According to MSNBC’s Chris Matthews on Monday’s Hardball, the election is already over and Hillary Clinton is the winner. And knowing that going to the polls on Election Day how can a woman possibly vote for Donald Trump
• NYTimes:Hillary Clinton has an 85% chance to win.
• WaPo: Hillary Clinton has enough electoral votes to win the White House in final Fix map
Another pathetic rant by the mad typewriter king. You are so predictable…. and as for Konk Life and Mr de Boer, why do you continue to defend your boy, who never adds anything but contempt for our president, yet you respond to others that respond to Kostmayer with asking them to offer suggestions instead of constant criticism of your favorite TDS sufferer? I see nothing more from him. Why continue to publish his constant fury?
Just attempting to get the other side to write a LTE. Let’s hear your own opinion.
“hat sales going up when approval ratings are going down?”
I don’t need 300 words…also Mr. Rogers hasn’t done any fact checking as there is only 1 site to purchase “official” MAGA/Trump hats.
My LTE starts
A ‘Deplorable’ wears a different MAGA/Trump hat for each day of the week. There are 20 versions/colors to choose/purchase from the only official Trump sales site; shop Donald Trump.
This is why MAGA/Trump hat sales are up!
The end.
Trump is an incompetent, greedy liar and con man. He is in way over his head and is unfit for office. Hiding the fact that he was negotiating a development deal with the Russians during the campaign and while serving as president of the U.S. is reason enough to remove him from office. #Trump Resign.
The problem is Trump is not Jewish!
