This week, a group of US officials and Vice President JD Vance’s wife, Usha, plan to go to Greenland to watch the country’s national dogsled race. Greenland’s prime minister is calling the visit “highly aggressive.”

FWIW, the population of Nuuk is only about 20,000.

And now, to protest this “aggressive” visit this week, some Greenlanders have created their own MAGA hat.

Here it is:

The hat was created by Aannguaq Reimer-Johansen, who said, roughly translated, “Challenge to citizens: Vance’s wife’s visit is a charm offense. If you take a smiling selfie with them, you send a signal to the whole world that you love USA and want to be a part of it. We have already shown our attitude through a large demonstration. Let’s stand firm and hold together.”
