Hats Are Being Polished for the Stage Where Donald Trump Will Either Declare Himself Supreme Leader or Throw a Big Tantrum Tonight Depending on How All This Shakes OutMatt Novak9 minutes agoFiled to: our garbage electiondonald trumpmake america great againhats2EditPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink A worker rubs down a display box with a Make America Great Again hat at Trump Election Night headquarters (Photo by Jessica Rinaldi/The Boston Globe via Getty Images) Donald Trump didn’t spend much money on get-out-the-vote efforts this year. But he did spend a shit-ton on hats. So it seems only fitting that the stage on which Trump will (hopefully) concede victory to Hillary Clinton tonight will have two Make America Great Again hats—both sitting on pedestals like they’re the Crown fucking jewels or something.

But the photos coming out of the New York Hilton Midtown, where Trump supporters will be convening tonight, are really strange. The stage being prepared at Trump Election Night headquarters (Photo by Jessica Rinaldi/The Boston Globe via Getty Images) I realize that this isn’t the weirdest setup that the Donald Trump campaign has ever orchestrated. (Remember when he held a press conference in front of a bunch of steaks?) But it still seems bizarre. If Trump wins, will the hats become mandatory?

I’m not sure Trump knows how to do anything else at this point.Whatever happens on that stage tonight, win or lose, it’s a safe bet that it won’t be graceful.Matt Novaknovak@gizmodo.com@paleofutureMatt Novak is the editor of Gizmodo's Paleofuture blogPGP Fingerprint: 0074 467E 1339 F416 DA8C 6CFA 0ABD A808 C05C D4A6|PGP KeyRecommended StoriesHow to Watch Tonight's Election Results, No Cable RequiredThis Sign Outside My Polling Place Is the Most LA Thing EverAn Election Day Soundtrack for the End of the WorldGear from Kinja DealsThese Are Your Five Favorite Cheap Bluetooth SpeakersThese Keychain-Sized Charging Cables Are Always By Your SideSave $17 On the Bluetooth-Enabled Xbox One S ControllerReply2 repliesLeave a reply
