MAGA-hat wearing Trump loyalist says she was discriminated against in first class on American Airlines flight

A Donald Trump supporter has claimed she was discriminated against on an American Airlines flight because of her 'Make America Great Again' hat.

Heather Mullins, who is an independent journalist, documented her claims on X on Sunday, following a first-class trip from Detroit to Philadelphia.

She claimed an unnamed female flight attendant skipped her when taking drink orders, and that when asked about it, she responded snidely.

The former insurance broker described how she eventually got her beverage, but only after everyone else on the plane.

She shared her story with more than 111,000 followers - all of whom she's secured over seven years by posting pro-Trump content. 

One from this past April shows her flaunting a MAGA cap on another flight. The airline has yet to comment.

'I've worn my MAGA hat every time I've flown for the last four years and got thousands of fist bumps. NEVER got any hate,' Mullins' post begins.   

'Well, there's a first time for everything.

'I just had the flight attendant for @AmericanAirlines SKIP ME in first class when asking everyone if they wanted a drink!!'

The woman who first tried reporting seven years ago after working on 2016 Presidential candidate Gary Johnson's failed campaign went on: 'She asked the guy next to me and then walked away. I thought it was odd she didn't ask me. 

'So when she came back I asked her if I could get a drink, and in the nastiest voice, she was like 'No. I'll be back for you,' and proceeded to serve the people behind me. 

'They were then in shock,' she claimed. 'I was the last one to get served. 

'And now everyone on the plane is floored and talking about it.'

The post quickly garnered more than 2million views, and a bevy of replies.

Several asked for more insight into the alleged situation, and Mullins obliged.

'I'm honestly in shock,' she wrote at one point, a few minutes after the initial update. 

'It's sad that just happened in America. But so grateful for all the kind people around me saying how awful it was she did that to me. She's an anomaly. Most people are not like that.'

Within two hours, another post came in which Mullins described how she allegedly attempted to file a complaint to the airline, but was met with bureaucratic red tape.

DailyMail.com has reached out to American for comment. 

'Tried to file a complaint during my layover,' the reporter wrote at around 8:54pm ET, in a post that's also been seen hundreds of thousands of times. 

'First woman said I needed to call a Supervisor. Supervisor told me it would be over an hour to get a manager and to go to the website. 

'When I tried recording her instructions she got upset and called a customer service manager. 

'He then called an 'inflight' manager or something who said they couldn't come down. 

'I was given the CSR managers business card and told to fill out a report at the website he wrote on the back,' Mullins claimed.

When onlookers suggested the alleged snub could see the woman fired, Mullins shared the flight's number, as well as the route. She also aired the unnamed female employee's unique employer ID, before describing her as 'an older Asian woman.'

The next morning, she shared another brief on the yet-to-be-substantiated saga, recalling again how she tried submitting a complaint at an American Airlines kiosk.

This post, however, included video, and was followed a few hours later with a post picturing the woman and a badge showing her employee ID number.

'So I'm not allowed to record your instructions of how I'm supposed to file this complaint?' she asks several staffers behind the desk in the 12-second clip.

They don't immediately respond, leading Mullins to ask a confused 'ok?' before ending the clip

'When I tried submitting a complaint I got the runaround,' she wrote in an accompanying caption

 'Ultimately told to go to the website. I'll do that today but I'm not confident anything will get done.'

That post was published at 7am ET, and within four hours, the next update came - in which Mullins doxed the flight attendant she said was responsible. 

'Here’s the flight attendant that didn’t want to serve me a drink because I was wearing a MAGA hat. 

'Someone from @AmericanAir just called, apologized, and said they are putting in the complaint and notifying the inflight management,' she continued.

'He said ultimately I won’t know what actions they take on her. It could be a “don’t do this again”, or if she has a history of issues, she could be let go. But I won’t be notified.'

American, meanwhile, did not publicly respond to Mullins's tagged complaints, which are quickly gaining traction online.

A former insurance broker based in New England, Mullins first gained prominence in 2017, after starting work as a reporter News2Share, a DC based outfit founded by a former Fox News reporter.

She worked there for two years while amassing a following on social media, before joining alt-right outlet RealAmericasVoice - a site known for its conservative-backed conspiracy theories.

In April of last year, she branched out on her own, still posting pro-Trump content. Her LinkedIn lists her as self-employed, and her social media has essentially become a fan page for the former president.

'MAGA hat stays on... Pass it on...' she writes in another hat-heavy post from back in March, again proudly donning the cap. 

American did not immediately respond to a DailyMail.com request for comment about the alleged incident Monday morning.
