Who knew Todd Muller has French ancestry? He sure knew how to surrender quickly after a brisk march backwards over a hat.
National leader Todd Muller says his “Make America Great Again” hat is staying in its box in his new office, and he won’t be unpacking it.
The hat with the Donald Trump slogan was a piece of US political memorabilia picked up when he observed the 2016 US presidential campaign.
It was on display in his previous office and came to light in several interviews after he became National leader on Friday and it created a social media storm with claims it represented racial oppression.
He told media on Saturday he would be displaying it in his new Leader of the Opposition office in Parliament but he has backed down from that pledge.
Muller acknowledged that others had “a different perspective” on the hat.
“I respect that,” he told reporters at Parliament today.
“I packed it up in a box when I left the office round there,” he said pointing in the direction of his old office “and it will stay in the box.”
For a tall man he sure shows a remarkable lack of spine.
He has capitulated at the first hurdle which was a less-than-nothing burger anyway. Instead of telling everyone who was whining to GFY, he has instead shown he’s a gutless weasel when confronted.
The Thug’s veto wins again.
If Todd Muller is interested in political memorabilia then I have a suggestion for him that matches his lack of a spine:
