Identity Mistake Was Made

(Incident took place last year in the summer)
One day I was out and about just looking around in stores. Everything was good. On that day I was wearing my red Angels MLB baseball cap. (any guesses
where this is going?) Everything was fine until I was walking down the aisle in a local walmart a town away.
A young man, no older than early 30's, bumped into me with a good push as he
walked by me and called me racist. I looked at him, then I looked around and behind me to see who he was talking to while at the same time I said sorry for bumping into him.
He tells me not to "play" stupid. I quickly replied that I wasnt familiar with the game. It seemed to of angered him. He immediately points at my hat in the child seat area of the cart where I had placed it. So I asked if he was a "Doyers" fan (yes, i said it with the slang). He started to look flustered. I was then asked if I was proud of myself for supporting what "that red hat" stood for.
I said I was and then he threatened my hat with kidnapping, battery and arson. I started to walk away and told him to f@@k off. Thats when I saw his fist go into a pugilistic readiness.
"wow. you serious." I said.
His response, "I'm down! Mother"lover!"
I chuckled and started to continue walking away. By this time a handful of people were standing around watching us. I kept my eyes on him as I walked away, and right when I saw him come towards me I turned around right as a stranger got up in his face and told him no.
I told the stranger thanks but to let him go. Obviously he has hatred for an Angels fan. But I'm just gonna go about my business and I suggested to the guy he do the same. Thats when the guy says he thought it was a TRUMP hat. And he sorta apoligized. "My bad."
I told him no, its an Angels hat and showed it to him. Then I told him to go fornicate with himself and (just to pi$$ him off) I also said "MAGA for life!"
People there laughed. I walked away. Never saw the guy again. Got fist bumps along the way.

A case of mistaken identity I guess If somebody had a Biden hat here I would expect similar. I would have been tempted to tell him he was behaving like a Trump supporter and gotten the Hell out of Dodge!

I love this and your reaction to it
I have come to the solid conclusion that there are an immense number of idiots.

Geesh, and they say Trump followers are a bunch of dumb "rednecks." Seems he's the racist for hating the color red
