Default MAGA on Canada Day. Gotta vent

Posting here before I do something regrettable...

Our family cottage has a new neighbour lately, a ####ty American. This guys a ###### on the best of days, and a proud supporter of the Donald as you'd expect from our embarassing basement neighbour.

This ###### has been a thorn in my side for years, but he's crossed the line now. He's decided to celebrate our nation's weekend with promoting his own, and going full on Trump and rockin' bis MAGA hat this weekend.ko

What would you guys do in my position? My family is your typical Canadians - take the highroad and just chill. But I feel like a MAGA hat in Canada, let alone this weekend is another tier of offensive. Not a swastika at a bar mitzvah of course - but in that mindset you're only doing it to #### on everyone there.

What would you guys do to this guy? My family has been messaging me like crazy that this #### is enough of a dick to (literally) build a wall to block our East view, but I want to destroy him.

How do I handle this as a proud Canuck?

So he's wearing a hat and you're losing your #### over it?

Well, if you wait for 3 days after Canada day, it'll be your turn to piss on everything red, white and blue right in front of his big dorky face.

I guess I see this as more than a hat, and this is one of those guys who enjoys offending you.

I'm sure we all know what a MAGA hat means in Canada these days, you don't think this is a pretty blatent '#### you' right now?

It's the most aggressive this limp #### can be. But he wants us to know how little he thinks of us

Btw, this is why I started this thread. I need a vent. Thank you.

Whatever you do, don’t kick him out of your restaurant.

Bit extreme in a professional setting, but why the hell do we have Americans here thinking this is gonna fly?

He definitely is

It's a frustrating game to watch someone win if that's your finish line.

Does he have children? If so, take them away and lock them in an abandoned Zellers.

Except you were asking us what we should do to this guy and how you should “handle” this

Is this a venting or are you asking us for opinion?

You wish your fiance wasn't incredible? That's a weird thing to wish for.

It's something you have no control over, so just ignore him. Most of all don't give him the satisfaction of knowing you are angry.
