The yellow hats worn on day 3 of the Republican National Convention symbolized a unified call for election integrity and transparency. The California delegation’s yellow MAGA hat, however, represented California as a Golden State.
Attendees of the Republican National Convention on the third day graced the occasion with yellow hats to pass a political message of election integrity. Coincidentally the California delegations also appeared with their yellow MAGA hat.
The red MAGA hats are well-known. However, the California delegation decided to take it a step further with golden MAGA hats during the Republican National Convention. The California delegation pulled the largest number of delegates over 160 at the convention. They stood out in the crowd with their yellow hats.
The RNC’s most prominent state delegations, comprising over 160 delegates, drew attention with their new yellow hats during the 3rd day of the event. The color was chosen to symbolize California’s Golden State status, as explained by Charles Hilliard, a California delegate.
Unlike the yellow hats worn by other attendees, the California delegation’s hats featured the iconic “Make America Great Again” slogan. This customization not only showed their allegiance to Trump, but it also showcased California as the “Golden State.”
The yellow hats, especially those worn by the California delegates, generated significant media coverage and public discourse.

The Republican National Convention is set to nominate the next President of the United States. This year’s RNC took place in Milwaukee from July 15 to July 18, 2024.

What’s the meaning of yellow hats?
At the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, a multitude of lawmakers and devoted supporters of Donald Trump proudly wore limited edition yellow hats, displaying their unwavering support for the former president and his newly selected running mate, JD Vance.
These unique hats seem to have drawn inspiration from Trump’s iconic yellow hat, which he wore at his rallies and public events.
The hats served as a powerful demonstration of solidarity, reflecting the enthusiasm and unity within the Republican Party during the convention.
The yellow hats worn by the attendees had a lot of significance, the major one being to demonstrate their collective support for election integrity. Aside from this, the yellow hats were also meant to capture the media’s attention. It was a strategic move to highlight their cause on a national stage.
However, the California delegates came prepared with their eye-catching yellow MAGA hats. The fact that the California delegations were the largest in this year’s convention gave them an edge to be noticed by all.
According to Charles Hilliard who spoke excitedly in an interview, he said the hats are collectors edition and are limited. He also added that the color represents California’s reputation as the Golden State.
For Hilliard, a Democratic supermajority holds the state’s legislature, and as such, California’s presence at the RNC is a “big step” for the state’s Republican party.
