Tensions were sky high at a London airport on Monday after two American women were kicked off a British Airways flight after scuffling over a Donald Trump MAGA hat.
The fight erupted in Terminal 5 of London Heathrow airport after a woman - who was sporting a red baseball cap with Trumps Make America Great Again slogan on it - was asked to take it off by a fellow passenger, The Sun reported.
Punches were allegedly exchanged in the terminal as stunned passengers watched on before the brawl continued onboard the Austin-bound flight.
Ultimately, cops were called and the pair - who reportedly continued to exchange obscenities - were removed from the flight.
While neither woman was arrested, police officers interviewed them and they both reportedly accused each other of affray, The Sun said.

The scrap comes just days ahead of the US presidential election
Republican nominee Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris have been travelling the the country and hosting rallies as they reach the final stretch of the presidential race.
Harris on Tuesday night told 75,000 supporters outside the White House that Trump is a petty tyrant obsessed with revenge and grievance in her closing pitch of the 2024 campaign.
She spoke on the Ellipse, a section of the National Mall that features the White House as its backdrop with just seven days to go before the election.
Her impassioned plea with the race essentially tied in the polls was to reach undecided voters and those still on fence about casting a ballot on November 5.
This is someone who is unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and out for unchecked power, she said of the ex-president.

Throngs of Harris supporters were packed onto the Ellipse and waved American flags Tuesday night in Washington, D.C.
Trump was the main focus of her remarks. She mentioned him 24 times. And she attacked Trump from the start, criticizing him for his response to the insurrection on January 6th.
She spoke from the same spot he spoke on January 6th, 2021, when he encouraged his supporters to march on the Capitol to overturn the election results.
The striking contrast in images is what Harris campaign was going for, saying they picked they location deliberately.
Donald Trump sat in the White House, watching as the violence unfolded on television, Harris said.
He was told by his staff that the mob wanted to kill his own vice president and Donald Trump responded with two words: so what?
And thats who is asking you to give him another four years in the Oval Office, she added.
