A Virginia man lost his job with a leading national naval manufacturer after refusing to take off his “Trump 2020” hat at a safety meeting prior to a shift, according to local reports. Despite company policies prohibiting campaigning and political clothing, Sunderland told the Daily Press newspaper in Virginia that he’d worn Trump hats over the past few years without incident and had seen others wearing clothing with Democratic and progressive slogans. “I wasn’t campaigning,” Sunderland told the paper. The foreman told him to remove it, and he said no, according to the report. The Newport News shipyard itself was recently listed among the Military Times’ top employers for veterans, who make up almost 20 percent of its workforce, according to the company.
