Donald Trump's election night party is supposed to be just that — a victorious celebration. But by the looks of things, the party planners are already anticipating a loss.
First, there was the cake, which was molded to resemble Trump but ended up just looking utterly depressing. And now there are Make America Great Again hats enshrined in glass cases, as if they might at any minute be shipped off to the Museum of Memories of the 2016 Presidential Election:
The Oregonian reports that at the end of the night, Trump plans to put on one of the hats in the cases. "But which is which? On the left side of the stage sits a white hat with black stitching. On the right, a red hat with white stitching," they write.
