Conservatives are rejoicing over what they term a ‘vibe shift’ towards the right after unexpected images showcased MAGA merchandise available for purchase at Los Angeles International Airport, located in one of the most Democratic strongholds in the U.S.

The viral image circulated on Friday, displaying the interior of a shop named AMERICA!, highlighted shelves filled with Trump-themed pens, dolls, mints, masks, and other pro-MAGA items promoting Donald Trump.

‘Spotted at LAX,’ Elizabeth Barcohana shared on X alongside a photo of a MAGA T-shirt display in the shop. ‘California Vibe Shift Right is real.’ 

Although AMERICA! is not an official ‘Trump store,’ LAX describes this retailer as having a 25-year history focused on ‘local pride, pop culture, and current events,’ with a strong emphasis on Americana themes.

‘The dynamic, constantly evolving assortment of carefully curated merchandise reflects ever-changing American trends in the market, the local experience, pop culture, politics and current events,’ the store description states on LAX’s website.

‘By design, each AMERICA! store engages visitors by conveying a regional sense of place, set against a contemporary patriotic backdrop.’ 

Another user, known as unapologeticcrystal, posted a video of the store on TikTok saying: ‘You know California has changed when youre at LAX and there’s an entire store dedicated to Trump.’

The footage quickly went viral social media, with many users praising the display.

‘That’s so awesome to see,’ one wrote. ‘MAGA is more than a slogan to those of us who saw the previous administration send billions of dollars to foreign countries while abandoning Americans in Western North Carolina. MAGA just means: America before anyone else. Period.’

Another commenter wrote: ‘MAGA is the new way we live. We embrace everything that we love about America under the greatest president who has cared about our country in Donald J. Trump. We are taking back California.’

A third simply said: ‘I never see any representation. This is nice.’

‘So in one of the most liberal cities in the country. They have a Trump store, but I’m supposed to believe the election is close,’ another added.

Despite its reputation as a liberal stronghold, Trump and the Republicans picked up substantial gains in November’s general election.  

Large swathes of California voted for him in areas far away from coastal cities such as Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Back in January, sources revealed that Trump was convinced the devastating California wildfires would help him turn the traditionally left-wing state Republican.

One legal source close to the President told the Mail at the time: ‘Donald sees this as an opportunity to turn California Republican red.

‘This is a state which has the fifth largest economy in the world and it should be thriving. Instead, the liberals have destroyed it with their woke policies. Crime is rising, the streets are filthy, homelessness is everywhere.’

‘During the last election people in California were already hearing Donald’s message and voting for him.’

‘It’s still one of the most liberal states in the US, but this total screw-up with the wildfires, the fact that the fire hydrants didn’t have enough water, the fact that Democrats constantly cut the fire budget, the fact that none of the vital forest and wild land clearance work has been done – all this supports Donald’s message that the Dems have screwed it up badly.’

‘His message to ordinary Californians is that these wildfires are the final straw. Make the change and vote Republican and watch California come roaring back to prosperity.’
