Rahban Algazali of San Leandro regrets the decision he made Nov. 8, which his friends and family have not let him forget.
After the Yemen native and Muslim American voted for Donald Trump, and after Trump tried to ban citizens of several majority-Muslim countries from entering the U.S., Algazali sent a rather ordinary photo of his son dressed in traditional Yemeni garb to family members.

In the accompanying picture with the article the front of Mr. Algazali's store has a big sign proclaiming that they accept food stamps and EBT cards. He did a big favor for the American taxpayer in shutting down.

I doubt he voted for Trump. That’s an easy lie to make.

This qualifies as a fake news story because this guy never voted for Trump.

Nobody has a problem with LEGAL immigrants.
They are deliberately trying to confuse people.

I can find 1 exception to just about anything. Cherry picking people with voter’s remorse is not a scientific survey.
Once again fake news

The man clearly has difficulty envisioning the consequences of his actions, so it stands to reason that he’d lose a day’s business receipts for pointless symbolism.
To: artichokegrower
Hate to admit, my wife has a company that comes by and cleans our house every week.
They were no shows today, and she canned their ass!! Said I’m not putting up with that immigrant $hit.
I’m so proud sniff...sniff...

” the Yemen native and Muslim American”
Bet the majority of the income derived from these stores located in the tougher neighborhoods of Oakland come from the sales of beer and cheap wine.

This is his store:

The only way he voted for Trump is if he could not read the ballot. But aren’t ballots available in all of the 5,000 languages spoken in the marvelously multicultural Bay Area?
To: artichokegrower
I’ll need to see proof he voted for Trump before I believe this highly suspicious story.

Wonder how much money he has laundered thru his store via food stamp fraud?

Yeah, I don’t believe that he voted for Trump either.
Anyone from Yemen would fully realize that Yemen SHOULD be atop the list of banned countries.

It’s important to remember that Leftists are generally vindictive, not forgiving.
