The unhinged leftist who went viral after receiving instant karma for trying to steal a Trump fan’s MAGA hat on a NYC subway has been identified.
The New York Post revealed this morning that Alberta Testanero, a 55-year-old dual Italian-American citizen residing in Murray Hill, a Manhattan neighborhood, is responsible for this humiliating incident.
The paper also notes that she is an “agitated” creative director for several luxury brands, including Tiffany & Co., Coach, Bergdorf Goodman, and Kate Spade.
Testanero describes herself on her since-deleted Linkedin account as “an award-winning creative director, photo art director, and designer with over 20 years of experience in the industry.”
She also calls herself “an experienced team leader” who has “a keen understanding of the relationship between corporate strategy and creative vision” and maintains “the highest standards.”

The Post also notes that there appears to be a Facebook account belonging to Testanero, which shows her as a fan of the Obamas and Joe Biden. She allegedly shared a family photo of the Obamas and an image of “Joe” and “Barack” friendship bracelets.
One of Testanero’s former co-workers spoke to the New York Post about the woke leftist and had nothing nice to say about her.
“Testanero has gone off the deep end when it comes to politics,” the former colleague revealed to the Post. “She and I stopped being friends a while ago, as she became extremely liberal and very agitated.”
“I see nothing has changed, but now she’s gotten into the extreme, doing things like this,” the coworker added.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that on March 19, a woke leftist was caught on video lecturing a Trump supporter and whining to others on an NYC subway as the man defends himself.
“He’s a racist! If you voted for Trump, you are a racist!” she can be heard complaining.
“How can I be racist?” the Trump fan fires back while pointing out he is a person of color.
As the woman continued her tantrum, the man turned to one of his friends and laughed before returning to defend himself against the woman’s insults.
The unhinged Karen then started walking toward him while wagging her finger. The man then removes the MAGA hat from his head to let the woman look closer before turning around to exit the train.
Then, all hell broke loose once the woman tried to steal the man’s hat.
Once they both exited the train, the man started running to get away from the leftist as the train’s passengers began hooting. Then the lady fell flat on her face trying to catch up, making her an instant internet meme.
Ha ha ha!!
This woke hate peddler attacked a stranger on the NYC subway. She attempted to shame him over his MAGA hat. He stood his ground in front of everyone.
And when he gets off at his stop, this Karen makes a huge mistake trying to assault him and grab his hat. pic.twitter.com/fAUfHF6AEb— ϻ µ
