Great story. Bet you don’t read this one on a CNN, MSN, NBC, ABC, Huffy or HLN site. They’d probably label it as “fake news.”

Not surprised really - this is how the right rolls.

I think it’s a pretty good bet you won’t see a word about this on CNN

I just shared this story with the visiting nurse who is here to attend to a medical need. She said it didn’t mean much because the “rich guy” probably got the money by cheating someone. How do you get through to these people?

Harris, who is black, told the Post she was admittedly a bit prejudice when the men, who were white, told her they were in town to support Trump.

Nice story but if they just left a regular tip, we'd have a story about a prejudiced black waitress who thought that the Trump supporters she was serving were bigots without any evidence. That is going on across the nation every day. Once again, this is a nice story, but Trump supporters should not have to leave $450 tips to get liberals to give up their prejudices.

Yeah, and our fine EX VP gave what, $200 in donations to charity on his tax forms?

Wonderful story. And exactly what we teach aggressively at FreeRepublic.com.

Within days, you’ll see a Black/Muzzie/Lezzie/Trans claiming that a Trump supporter left a mean message on the slip, and no tip.

Great story. I hope it makes her think.

Great writing? No so much:

Harris, who is black, told the Post she was admittedly a bit prejudice....

beaming with confidence

For what?

Had two other women I know post pictures of themselves on FB at different marches in Maine and Colorado saying how wonderful it was.

I asked them both, "Um, exactly what did you accomplish? I have been watching the news and don' t see any mention of how all this made any difference other than leaving mountains of garbage behind. Trust you were more respective of littering laws."

crickets!

In other news, Rep. John Lewis, civil rights Icon-job, said he was not at the march because he vividly remembered that he was spat upon and called the “N” word somewhere, sometime by someone.

Imagine if a waitress would have been beaming about Trump while serving leftist patrons. I doubt she would have been generously tipped, but likely stiffed and dursed

I believe when you come across the intolerant you kill them with kindness. you probably wont effect them but who ever you are with will look at there behavior and yours and then make a decision on both of you.

Heartwarming story reported by the Washington Post and retold without slant by Fox News. Unless the lack of pejorative adjectives is the slant.
