No, No, Wait. Deplorable Is His Name.

So a guy in New Braunfels, Texas, got in trouble for trying to vote while wearing a Donald Trump hat and a Deplorable tee-shirt.

He refused to turn his shirt inside out before voting.

Mauthe was asked by poll workers to remove the Trump hat, and he complied, the man told KSAT 12 News. But when they asked him to turn his “deplorables” T-shirt inside out, he refused.

“He wanted to take a stand,” Bulverde Police Chief Gary Haecker told the Herald-Zeitung. “Unfortunately, he was arrested.”

Chief Haecker made it real clear where he stood on this issue.

“I went up there and talked to him. I told him, ‘I support you and I appreciate what you’re doing. It’s your right, but you’re going about it the wrong way here.’ The election code has very specific rules,” Haecker told the Herald-Zeitung. “These are the rules and you have to abide by the rules.”

Mauthe gave up his hat but stood firm on his tee-shirt.  He was booked into jail and paid his $700. bond.

Did they do a field sobriety test?

Thanks to Paul for the heads up.
