Supporting Trump -> You Support his beliefs (or at least don't explicitly condemn his beliefs)
Trump holds racist beliefs
Therefore, it's possible that supporting Trump may indicate a penchant towards racism.
I'm not sure what you're tripping up on.
You are correct that it is possible, but it is merely one of many different possibilities. There can be any number of reasons that someone supports Trump, and immediately jumping to racism isn't helpful. It isn't going to be the correct logical leap to make the majority of the time. Based on the MAGA hat, the only reasonable logical conclusion is they are a Trump supporter. Anything beyond that isn't something that should be inferred without further evidence.
