A man who was kicked out of LGBTQIA+ venue The Wickham because wearing a Donald Trump ‘TRUMP 2024’ hat has asked for an apology. Robert Holt says that there was no “legitimate reason” for them to request he leave the Brisbane pub. Holt was attending an early Halloween event with his family at the beloved LGBTQIA+ venue in Fortitude Valley when he was asked to leave. According to Sky News, Mr. Holt said that had been at the venue for a couple of hours before a staff member from behind the bar had come up to him and asked if he was leaving. Mr. Holt asked the staff member why he thought so, to which the barback replied it was because of his Trump hat, which proudly displayed “TRUMP 2024”. Before telling him that he ‘has to go’, the staff member reportedly said to Mr.Holt, “People around here don’t feel safe with people wearing items of (Trump-branded) clothing coming into this pub”.
