Man Removed from Delta Flight for Wearing Donald Trump T-Shirt Flipping the Bird
Delta Airlines removed a passenger from a flight at Sarasota Bradenton International Airport on Saturday morning, allegedly due to his choice of attire—a T-shirt featuring former President Donald Trump flipping the bird and Hawk Tuah meme.
According to a viral post on the Reddit group r/delta per New York Post, the man was initially allowed to board the plane after turning his T-shirt inside out following a complaint from another passenger.
However, just before takeoff, a Delta employee re-entered the aircraft and escorted the man off, apparently because he had reverted his shirt to display the controversial decal.
“Crazy day in Sarasota airport, I was sitting next to a young man before boarding that had on a Trump shirt with middle fingers and a red coat came over and told him some lady complained and he had to change his shirt or he could not get on the plane.
