Meet The Restaurant Owners Who Kicked Out Sarah Sanders
Big League Politics ^ | 23 June 2018 | Peter D'Abrosca

Posted on 06/23/2018 1:26:16 PM PDT by COBOL2Java

President Donald J. Trump’s press secretary was thrown out of a Virginia restaurant because she works for the Trump administration.

“Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for [President Trump] and I politely left,” she tweeted. “Her actions say far more about her than about me. I always do my best to treat people, including those I disagree with, respectfully and will continue to do so.”

The Red Hen has been owned by Stephanie Wilkinson since 2008, according to a public records database.

Wilkinson and her co-founder John Blackburn are part of the leftist “go green” craze.

“Our two main goals during renovation were to preserve the historic character of the building and update it in the most sustainable way possible,” Blackburn told Virginia Living.

Curiously, nobody named Stephanie Wilkinson is registered to vote in Virginia.

The Red Hen has been taking a beating on Google Reviews since the news surfaced.

“Based on the new report that that the manager asked a patron last night to leave because she worked for the POTUS, this is highly inappropriate,” a Google user named Kimberly Mackie wrote. “A business should never ask a customer to leave because of their job.”

I had a friend once who was pissed off at someone. He printed up a thousand little stickers with the guys name and address. Then spent a year affixing them to every mail order postcard reply offer he could find. He started with the magazine cards that fall out when you open up the issue. But then went further to every try on approval offer he found. Graduated on to bathroom stall messages, just something he did in his spare time. Really messed the guy up. Dealing with endless chit. Post office couldn't really track the stickers. Probably never saw one, and since he lived in a big city the postmark, if there was one, was of no help.

I, of course, was highly critical of such a thing. How terrible.

Conservatives should ask Wilkinson, the Director of “Mainstreetlexington” if she would shun conservatives who wish the leverage the organization to open in Lexington?

Would Wilkinson “bake the cake”?

Current address in one website is listed as:

>>>due to the fact that many were gay and most were uncomfortable with the way Sanders had been defending Donald Trump’s inhuman border separation policy<<<

I wasn’t aware that Gay People have Homes with no Exterior Doors. That being said, I guess Obama doing what they are accusing Trump of doing is just a little inconvenient and not worth exploring further.

Are Gay People aware that POTUS Trump, unlike Obama and Biden, supported Gay Marriage before he assumed Office? The only caveat was Trump thought and still thinks Gay Marriage is a States Rights Issue.

You’re not fluent in liberalspeak. Any apology from a leftist makes the party to whom the apology is due seem stupid and humorless. So, were the owner to apologize, the apology would go something like this:
We strive to please, and in our zeal to show compassion, solidarity and goodwill to our foreign patrons who were there with their young children, we took the step of asking Ms. Sanders to evacuate the premises. We’re sorry we were misunderstood.

I truly wonder if part of the staff might not be legally in the U.S. seems fishy to me...

The loony left is having a meltdown though so who knows.

good thing they didn’t say this to a mooslim or an african american - they’d be in big trouble..

Anything goes, though, if it’s a Christian or a white or a conservative..

"The Democrat Party has been in existence for 190 years and for the first 140 years they were openly and often violently segregationists. After the Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964 and the Voters Rights Act was passed in 1965 they changed their tact to one of using minorities in a different way to express their hate, but it's still the party of hate. The Democrat plantation takes the form of vegetable farms in Arizona/Mexifornia, packing plants in the Midwest and warehouses in Georgia. But it is still the same abusive, hate-filled progressives using identity politics and dishonesty to peddle their tunes. They still want to pay starvation wages to the next batch of slaves on their plantations and show their disdain for honest working class people in America."

And Yelp now has a note saying so many politically motivated reviews have caused them to have to pare out the excess good and bad based on the recent deal - at least they’re being honest because the reviews are meant to be buy those who have actually been to places.

No room for conservatives at this Red Commie Inn.

Conservatives must use separate, properly designated entrances/or establishments, at Red Commie type restaurants/businesses.

Is this what’s coming, next, from these deranged libs?
