MAGA assualt Falmouth

A young man was minding his own business in a restaurant in Falmouth, Massachusetts this week, when a woman approached him from behind and grabbed his ‘Make America Great Again’ hat.

The incident ended with her arrest.

The young man, Bryton Turner, handled the situation perfectly. He remained calm and let law enforcement handle it.

Bill Shields of CBS News in Boston reports:

It sounds like Ms. Santos was just following orders from Maxine Waters. Maybe the congresswoman can help out with her legal fees.
