FWIW, it's perhaps worth noting that when Benjamin Franklin visited France between 1776 and 1778 to ask for military support for the then-new-formed United States of America, he wore a coonskin cap. "Proper" French court attire at this time was a powdered wig.

At the time, French elites were fascinated with the idea of a "backwoods philosopher," so Franklin strategically played up his "rustic" American roots. The coonskin cap, of course, was something of a symbol of the American frontier. And the trick worked: he charmed the French with his hat.

I mean, if that’s where they want to make their last stand, I’m ok with it!
But in this picture they should put a coonskin cap on him.

I'm sure they think that is a coonskin cap. Or told the LLM to make it one, or something.

In Stardew Valley, one of the rewards the Racoon family gives you for helping them is a coonskin cap, and I find that EXTREMELY disturbing.

The Alamo was not a victory. And there is also something about Davy Crockett trying to escape at the end and a persistent rumor he was not wearing that coonskin cap. Yellow rose indeed.
But hey, I have friends in Austin. I'll say no more. But perhaps the RNC wants to use imagery from San Jacinto.

Well we know what happened to Davy Crockett and his coonskin cap there in 1836. Probably not the best way to portray a lost battle to voters.
