Earlier we reported on a video that showed Joe Biden voters snatching a hat from next to a 7 year old boy, ripping up a sign, and in essence, attacking him for protesting with his mom at the DNC.
After that report, it was tweeted out by the person who posted the original tweet, Benny Johnson, that the boy, whose name is Riley, “got a call from the White House.”
Johnson followed that up by saying, “It looks like Riley will be getting a very special replacement hat…” Johnson also shared a picture of Riley in a “Keep American Great” hat standing beside what appears to be his mother who is holding a “Women for Trump” retractable banner.

Most of the tweets have been supportive but there were some naysayers including one who said that “Putting your 7 year old in a MAGA hat outside the DNC is almost as bad as harassing and stealing from the kid. It’s like the mom wanted a viral video…”
Putting your 7 year old in a MAGA hat outside the DNC is almost as bad as harassing and stealing from the kid. What did they expect. It’s like the mom wanted a viral video…..
