About

MAGA Christmas Ornament Reviews refers to a popular trolling technique on Amazon in which people leave negative reviews for Trump-themed Christmas ornaments with the MAGA slogan on them by writing parodies of the Trump administration.

Origin

In November of 2016, the Trump campaign began selling Christmas ornaments related to Trump, such as a MAGA hat. On November 23rd, 2016, The Washington Post[1] reported on the ornaments. The MAGA hat ornament was finished with 14-karat gold and cost $149. Twitter user @KyleGriffin1[2] tweeted about the ornament that day (shown below).



Spread

Once the product was listed on Amazon, people began trolling the listing by leaving 1-star reviews for the product with references to Trump and the campaign. On the 23rd, Amazon[3] user DMCReports wrote a lengthy review of the product that was a thinly veiled parody referencing their thoughts about the election (shown below).



Over the course of the following year, the trend continued with the MAGA hat and other ornaments. The trend was noticed the following year. On November 24th, 2017, Twitter user @BBCocoBear[4] tweeted about the trend (shown below).



On December 7th, People[5] wrote about the trend. Uproxx[6] and AV Club[7] also wrote about the trend.
