Rhinestone hats, ‘woke tears’ in a bottle, and Jan 6 pinball: The wild MAGA merch at CPAC

‘America’s funniest anti-woke brand’ which ‘identifies as transparent’ offered ‘woke tears’ in a bottle to the CPAC crowd

At this year’s CPAC, MAGA fans have been spoilt for choice with the array of merch to take their pick from.

There’s everything from Jesus hats decorated with rhinestones, MAGA-themed hammocks to relax on after a long day of culture war rhetoric, and some possibly salty “woke tears” in a bottle to quench your conservative thirst.

Not to mention the chance to take a break from the fearmongering on stage to play some January 6 insurrection pinball.

Here The Independent rounds up some of the wildest merchandise on offer:

‘Woke tears’ in a bottle

The stand for “America’s funniest anti-woke brand” which “identifies as transparent” and is “made from pure melted snowflakes” was almost entirely empty when The Independent stopped by.

Rhinestone hats for loving Jesus and hating Joe Biden

There were rhinestone hats available for both those who wanted to explicitly say “f*** Biden” as well as those who wanted to send the very same message using the rightwing code: “Let’s Go Brandon”.

Don’t relax without showing devotion to MAGA

For those who don’t want to nap without sharing their political beliefs, there’s MAGA Hammocks.

But the most notable outfits appeared to not have been purchased at the conference:

January 6 pinball

There were plenty of calls for January 6 rioters to be freed on stage, with many speakers pushing the line that suspected and some convicted insurrectionists are political prisoners. To accompany this rhetoric, there was even a “January 6” pinball machine.
