A Donald Trump supporter claimed he was kicked off a Delta Air Lines flight for sporting a t-shirt with a graphic of the former president making obscene hand gestures and slogans referencing the viral ‘Hawk Tuah’ girl, the New York Post reported.
The incident transpired on Saturday morning on a flight ready to take off from Florida’s Sarasota Bradenton International Airport. The flight crew received complaints from another passenger about the objectionable imagery on the man’s t-shirt and asked the latter to change. The man turned the shirt inside out for a while.
“Next thing I know, right before take-off, a Delta employee comes on the plane and escorts him off the flight, he had flipped his shirt back to the decal side,” a Reddit user wrote under the video posted on the platform, the New York Post reported.
The shirt flaunted a graphic of former president Donald Trump wearing US flag-coloured glasses and a text above and below him referencing a viral video of a girl explaining oral sex.
The video of the incident posted on Reddit has garnered over 900 upvotes and comments.
“I am getting kicked off because of my shirt,” the man can be seen declaring, while being escorted off the plane. He also abuses a flight attendant.
Although the reaction seemed extreme to a slew of people on Reddit, the airline was well within its right to make the passenger deplane. According to Delta Air Lines’ policies, which notes that passengers can be removed if their “conduct, hygiene, attire or odour creates an unreasonable risk of offence or annoyance to other passengers,” according to the New York Post report.
