Hillary Clinton support group, Correct the Record, is hobgoblinning* the entire roster of Republican presidential candidates in one fell swoop.
The political action committee (PAC) claims to have sent off personalised versions of Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" cap to each of the GOP runners.
According to Correct the Record's website, if you're Jeb Bush you can expect to receive a hat adorned with the slogan: "Make America Great Again. Prove Your Christianity".
If, on the other hand, you're called Chris Christie you'll find "Make America Great Again. No Orphan Refugees" on your doormat very soon.
The aim of the campaign? To prove that, although they may not garner as much press attention at Trump, these could-be presidents have said some pretty shocking things.
The hateful proposals of the rest of the Republican presidential field are just as outrageous as Trump's
- Correct the Record
For example, Marco Rubio recently called for closing down mosques and diners, saying on Fox News: "It’s not about closing down mosques. It’s about closing down any place - whether it’s a cafe, a diner, an internet site - any place where radicals are being inspired."
Mike Huckabee said of the refugee crisis: "It’s time to wake up and smell the falafel... We are importing terrorism."
Good luck America!
