President Donald Trump Signed Hat Make America Great Again – COA JSA

Description

Presented is a classic “Make America Great Again” hat signed by the 45th/47th President of the United States, Donald Trump. Trump penned his flowing signature in black felt tip pen (“9”) across the brim of the hat. This red trucker style mesh hat is from Trump’s 2016 first Presidential campagin.

Donald Trump began using the slogan “Make America Great Again” formally on November 7, 2012, the day after Barack Obama won his re-election against Mitt Romney. Trump used the slogan in an August 2013 interview with Jonathan Karl.By his own account, he first considered “We Will Make America Great”, but did not feel like it had the right “ring” to it. “Make America Great” was his next slogan idea, but upon further reflection, he felt that it was a slight to America because it implied that America was never great.

He eventually selected the phrase “Make America Great Again”, later claiming that he was unaware of Reagan’s use in 1980 until 2015, but noted that “he didn’t trademark it.” On November 12, he signed an application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office requesting exclusive rights to use the slogan for political purposes. It was registered as a service mark on July 14, 2015, after Trump formally began his 2016 presidential campaign and demonstrated that he was using the slogan for the purpose stated on the application.
