A Fresno, California student's Donald Trump hat is causing problems at his school.

"It's my favorite hat," says third grader Logan Autry. "The First Amendment says I can wear my hat."

But his red hat, reading "Make America Great Again", has caused problems for Logan.

"They told me to take my hat off because it brings negative emotions to the other children who don't like him," he says.

Logan said Thursday school officials at Powers-Ginsburg Elementary School told him to take his Donald Trump hat off due to safety concerns after other students confronted him.

"They were saying they didn't like Trump, they were saying he was stupid," says Logan. "I had to explain to them what Donald Trump was actually doing."
