We cats usually refrain from posting photos of nincompoops like Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and the like, because we don't want to contribute to the infamy that they probably deeply enjoy. But we're making an exception for Gigi Gaskins, a hat-shop owner in Nashville, because we want her to be hunted, haunted and drummed out of society for the rest of her life.
You probably know the story by now: Gaskins started selling yellow Star of David patches to COVID vaccine resisters (see her proudly modeling one, above). The blowback was fierce, and as observers we admire have said, she learned a lesson in capitalism pretty darn quickly when Stetson and other hat makers pulled their merchandise from her store.
Also, those protesters who showed up with signs and a huge banner probably put a crimp in some of her traffic. Let's hope she goes out of business and ends up begging on the street.
That sounds pretty harsh, but remember, you can draw a direct line from Donald Trump's 2016 anti-Hillary tweet — which featured a pile of cash and a six-pointed star — to this moron in Nashville. After initially defending herself on Instagram, Gaskins followed up with a non-apology, perhaps hoping to woo back Stetson. "This is not who I am," claimed the woman who just showed the world exactly who she is. We cats HISS.
P.S. If you're Jewish and a member of the Party of Trump, and have stood by silently while stuff like this happens, shame on you.
