First, I should say that I think baseball caps are great. You just have to find one you like. They can be distinguished by the shape and construction of the crown, which can be floppy or reinforced with buckram (like New Era caps). I even like trucker caps.

How Trump Plays Into Putin’s Hands, From Ukraine to Slashing U.S. Institutions Many of President Trump’s actions have been seen as benefiting Russia either directly or indirectly, so much so that Russian officials have celebrated some of his moves.

“It’s hard to see how Trump would have acted any differently if he were a Russian asset than how he has acted in the first 100 days of his second term.”
