'All wearing maxi pads on their ear': RNC's bizarre new Trump prop spurs hilarity

A new prop appears to have gained steam at the Republican National Convention — ear bandages.

MAGA world is no stranger to Donald Trump-themed merchandise, whether it's Trump-themed shoes or a new campaign T-shirt featuring his new running mate's name.

Photos emerged Tuesday of Trump supporters wearing bandages over their ears in what appears to be in solidarity with Trump's own bandage he wore during his RNC appearance Monday night. Trump wore the bandage after an assassination attempt left the MAGA leader bloodied at a Saturday rally.

And the internet couldn't stop laughing, relentlessly mocking MAGA supporters on X.

"The official one will be numbered and cost $47," wrote @patriottakes.

"Nooooooo," wrote @HadleySheley, adding three cry-laughing emojis. "so now they’re all wearing maxi pads on their ear"

She added that she "can't" and finished: "These people are so weird."

"Yeah, don't get me started on the diaper thing..." quipped @RareClarity101.

"lmao! he’ll be wearing this next," wrote @BabeGrl, attaching a photoshopped image of ultra-thin women's pads over Trump's right ear."

"They are selling those in the lobby for five dollars each," quipped @DenisonBarbs. "They have Donald Trump’s initials on one side of them."

The convention has faced questions over its vendors this week. A vendor was giving away a Daniel Defense-branded AR-15 rifle days after the assassination attempt. The military-style weapon is the same type of rifle used in the Butler, Pennsylvania shooting.
