A 9-year-old boy reportedly wore a pro-Donald Trump hat to class for three days and he was banned from wearing it again.

School officials at Powers-Ginsburg Elementary in Fresno, California, said they saw it as a safety concern, reported ABC7.

“The vice principal came up to me and told me to take my hat off because it brings negative attention from other students. And I said no a few times and then the principal told me again and I still said no and refused,” student Logan Autry said of his “Make America Great Again” hat.

More and more classmates confronted him over the hat. “I still want to keep my hat. It’s not the hat that draws attention, it’s just my personality that the other children do not like,” said Autry.
