Customers at a Staten Island Home Depot were shocked to see one of the company’s employees wearing an “America Was Never Great” hat earlier this week.

Krystal Lake, 22, of St. George got political during a shift on Tuesday. Her twist on Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s slogan was immediately shared online.

Ms. Lake said the social media furor between those who said she correct, and those who thought she was both unprofessional and wrong, was unexpected.

She should hurry on over to Africa then.

Haiku:

Won’t pay for her boat
Ride back but will donate to
Help her buy swim trunks

I call on home depot as as rep...

I promise this did not go over well...

She will be working elsewhere very soon

[Bullish]

Nahhh, she’d still hate America. That’s what leftists are... America haters first and foremost.

If you haven't donated yet, just click the FR train.

looks like an ugly, black, transgender or lesbian...

wonder if she comes from a NoDaddy inner city ghetto home?

well at least she has her bling on...

[jazusamo]

Thanks, Popman, I sincerely hope you’re right.

OK, my hat says “Love it or leave it”

Lol...I sometimes wear a hat from Gatorland that says "Bite Me".

[StormEye]

I'm going to wear a hat that says "Obama is a homosexual".
I wonder if I'll get fired?

[Bullish]

I’ll throw in some shark chum to grease her up with.

I would have had to talk to the store manager about that. Her supervisor should have shut that down when she walked on duty.

She qualifies twice for NeverTrump.

The hat, and the Ed Rendell criterion.

This might be good news for people who’d like to display the Confederate flag - especially on the front of their caps!

I’m watching the news about a murder trial going on. The suspect in the murder is Nykerion Nealon. He killed a man that was outdoors taking pictures of an unusual snowstorm. Shot him with several rounds of an AK-47.

Belk Department stores in the south were owned by a Christian family. Unfortunately they sold out to a Wall Street private equity firm a couple of years ago. I guess the 4th generation kids wanted the money and didn’t care about running the business their ancestors created.

[tuffydoodle]

We get a local phone book that lists only Christian based businesses.

[Flick Lives]

Krystal Lake is shallow.

[Thibodeaux]

why don’t you do just that?

oh, you don’t know how? lazy?

Home Depot meet Target.

Years ago, I suggested to JC Penney, when they were considering a new tag line, that they should use “We have family values”....instead, they hired the doofus from Apple and look where they are now.
