'All hail the pumpkin king': Twitter hilariously mocks Trump's bright orange MAGA hats
Naturally, Twitter had some thoughts about the bright orange-hued hats.
US President Donald Trump's campaign team is selling bright orange, jack-o'-lantern-themed versions of his MAGA hats just in time for Halloween and the internet can't handle it. The hats, which are being sold for $45 (£34) on the president's official website, feature an embroidered jack o' lantern on the front and the words "Make America Great Again" on the back.
Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, tweeted a photo of herself wearing the brightly-hued hat on Monday (23 October) with a picture of the president in the background.
"#MakeHalloweenGreatAgain and order your pumpkin #MAGA hat today!" Lara Trump wrote.
Twitter, on the other hand, couldn't help but mock the new line of Halloween-themed merchandise. While many compared the hat's orange hue to the president's skin tone, others suggested a few creative tweaks for the hats.
"Trump camp misses irony of promoting an orange-faced Trump-themed hat," one Twitter user wrote. A second said: "If Trump wears it, it will be invisible."
"Is it a jacka**-o-lantern?" The Bachelor producer Elan Gale asked. Another added: "Does it come with a comb over?"
"Wait for the Christmas hat," a user said.

That's the same color of Trump's orange makeup, that's so cool. He shouldn't wear one, though, won't know where the hat begins & the multiple chins end. (Btw, that $$ is used for his many legal fees.) At least you guys can get jobs on QVC when it's over.

They will sell ANYTHING - I challenge there will be MAGA tampons by 2019 in support of some BS "menstruate on your own time" legislation.

Trump should wear this while doing a shouted press gaggle next to his helicopter. He should say "very very unfair" in the $45 pumpkin hat. pic.twitter.com/WdmQmVNpHO

"Please buy our ugly hat, Donald has huge legal costs and they're only going to increase. He is counting on you to pay these bills for him."

All hail the Pumpkin King! So the GOP is all in with this clown, now? No 'never Trump' cabal left at all? Everyone has sold their soul? SAD

I know $45 already sounds like a steal, but what if I told you that also didn't include tax or shipping? https://t.co/xS6VUeguHF

While honest, I’m not sure selling an orange monster hat is the best branding strategy for the Trumps, Lara. https://t.co/IPaUofFz0Y
