The manager of an Ohio Chipotle restaurant on Wednesday said Hillary Clinton didn’t drop money in the tip jar during her visit earlier this week.
Bloomberg reported that Charles Wright, manager of Chipotle’s Maumee, Ohio, location, said Clinton left no change after placing her order Monday afternoon.
“Her bill was $20 and some change, and they paid with $21 and left,” Wright said of the Democratic presidential candidate’s spending.
Clinton, who was on her way to Iowa, visited the Maumee franchise during its afternoon lunch rush alongside Huma Abedin, the vice chairwoman of her presidential campaign. Employees did not recognize either woman.
“We get a bunch of tips,” Wright, a GOP voter, said of his store’s typical business. “If we’re doing our job right, people tip.”
Wright said the pair ordered a chicken burrito bowl, a chicken salad, a blackberry Izzy and a soda. After an employee rang them up, he added, Clinton did not cover the final total.
“The other lady paid the bill,” he said of Clinton’s companion. “Clinton didn’t pay.”
The former secretary of State announced her campaign in a video released on social media Sunday.
“I’m running for president,” Clinton said in Sunday’s video.
“Everyday Americans need a champion,” she continued. “I want to be that champion.”
Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh raised the issue of Clinton’s tipping during his Tuesday broadcast. Her behavior was important, he argued, given the rhetoric of her campaign.
“But I would like to know if she left anything in the tip jar, because that would be an indication that she understands the average, ordinary, everyman that she seeks to represent,” Limbaugh said.
Ahhh, “Subwayesque” - I can understand not tipping then.
Still, it’s Hitlery so I would expect that she wouldn’t tip anywhere. And her reputation precedes her.
Huma is Thomas Cromwell to Hillary’s Henry the 8th.
Exactly. We need them to live up their rules. She’s running for president - she should be stuffing the tip jars with cash and making sure not to park in handicapped parking places. She’s hopeless.
Oh, and stop pretending to be a descendent of coal miners. We New Yorkers know she’s a descendent of Orthodox Jews.
It’s pretty obvious and disgusting is going on there if you ask me. Hillary has kept this woman on as a ‘personal assistant’ through thick and thin, even going to extraordinary lengths to have her employed and paid by State Department, but not as a regular employee.
