Supporters of President-elect Donald Trump who feel there has been a backlash against Republicans since his election are taking their protest to the percolators.

Republicans are ordering their coffee and stating their name is 'Trump' so baristas will have to shout the last name of the president-elect when their drink is ready.

The protest is allegedly against people 'discriminating against Republicans' and was started by Trump supporter and actor Scott Baio, according to Yahoo News.

Has anyone run the odds on civil war breaking out before the inauguration?

You are skipping over the secession part. :)

never go to Starbucks as I refuse to give them my money, but this does sound funny.
I take it a barista is the server /waiter/waitress

A civil war over coffee?

Dunkin Donuts has better coffee.

A barista is the guy/gal that makes your cup of over priced specialty coffee.

I’d list my name as Maga.

I love how the right is learning to fight a guerrilla culture war. The left needs to be made uneasy in their smugness.

You are skipping over the secession part. :)

If we play our cards right, we might persuade California to secede. That would fix a lot right there.

I’d be a little wary of drinking that coffee if I did that.

That's fine so long as you don't worry about the barista spitting in your drink.

You need a fancy title for “server” when charging $5 for a cup of coffee. ;-)

I use Mike Hunt. They just say Mike, but it is funny watching them as they pause for a sec.

America runs on Dunkin!

Every time Obama speaks out Trump to reverse another executive order.

Never trigger those who have control of the process/distribution over your food and beverage.

This reminds me of a time when I took my kids, some of their fiends and the wifey to the very busy (and recommended) Original Joe's restaurant in San Jose.

I gave my name as John Trovolta - Party of 7. The wife went nuts, the kids thought it was great and we got a lot attention when we were called to our table.
