The North Shore's favorite son delivers a bold message!
Even the most blithely unaware know how fraught with tension our current political climate is. Facebook friends unfriending. Rants from across the spectrum. Build the wall. Lock her up. Pussy grabs back. Even the most subtle advertising of a position along the spectrum can set off peals of debate, wailing and gnashing of teeth. An avatar that looks like an AR-15. An avatar that says ITMFA.
And it is into this milieu that John John Florence boldly strode back home to his North Shore home, ready to take the crown, borrowing the same powerful hat that President Donald J. Trump made famous. Red. White lettering. The most divisive symbol of all. Trump’s hat, of course, reads Make America Great Again. John Johns reads Go John John but the messaging might be similar. There is no such thing as a design accident, you know, and I feel John John is exclaiming, “I am from here. This is my home. I, alone, will make the North Shore great again.”
What do you think he is exclaiming?

If you surf, you cannot support Republicans whose agenda is to pollute the ocean for corporate gain as much as possible. Because John knows this, I have to say the design choice resulted from economics, not politics.
John also means toilet and a prostitutes client.
As a Donald trump enthusiast. I’m extremely disappointed, this sullies the great John john name and links it to a white supremacy hat maker.
but JJF is white , wears hats , and is the supreme surfer . Where as Trumpy is white , wears a hair hat , is a supreme leader of the greatest nation on earth , and will be building hotels beside the WSL wave pools !
your grammar is apropriate for a trump enthusiast…
Whatever John Bonham is still the best drummer of all time .
I endorse that…
Pretty sure John John, bless his little cotton socks, lacks the basic intelligence to exclaim anything.
He doesn’t wear socks. I guarantee he’s a nicer human being than you are.
Wouldn’t be hard to be a nicer human than me. I’m the worst!
jjf has hats while https://uploads.disquscdn.c… jordy gets bullied.
This calls for a Go Go’s song!

I see your Go-Go’s and raise you a Bangles.

Did he just make this up, off the top of his head?
Seriously though, this may be the new, edgy, controversial JJ the world needs. In your face shade throwing Kelly Slater, back off teary Gabby, you through Jordy, but you’re cool Jules, (we on the same team and all).
Has Jules hired Dingo as a coach?
I blame the impending pressures of fatherhood and the desperation to provide for his expanding family.
Got to drive safely when you’ve got kids in the back seat. Check your mirrors, Julian!
John John is exclaiming, “Sorry, )(urley wouldn’t pony up for a nice Flexfit and these were the cheapest things we could get to embroider… who do you think I am? New Era designing a 59Fifty?! Fuck, brah, that’s expensive. Remember, I’m just a cheap surfer…”
Do the Yanks sleep in their caps?
