Bakers refused to make pro-Trump birthday cake for 9-year-old boy: Report

A boy whose letter to President Trump made national headlines last month reportedly wanted a pro-Trump cake for his birthday party, but his mother was unable to find a baker willing to fulfill the order.

At the July 26 White House press briefing, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders read a letter from a boy named Dylan who said Mr. Trump was his favorite president. When she later released the letter publicly, the boy’s last name was blacked out. The only identifying clue was that everyone called him “Pickle.”

The media scrambled to verify the letter’s authenticity, and the next day, The Washington Post confirmed it was sent by 9-year-old Dylan Harbin of California.

The Post reported that, when Dylan asked for a “Donald Trump cake” for his birthday, his mother “made him one herself, because she couldn’t find a bakery willing and able to do it.”

Michael P. Farris is president, CEO and general counsel of the Alliance Defending Freedom, the Christian legal group defending Jack Phillips, a Colorado baker who was sued by a gay couple for declining to make their same-sex wedding cake.

Mr. Farris wondered why bakers are allowed to decline to make birthday cakes supporting Mr. Trump, but not wedding cakes supporting same-sex marriage.

Gays have more rights than we do.

I agree with everything in your post, except Don't let the messy penmanship fool you. That'll get better in time. Mine didn't. But I knew Reagan was the best choice, and why, in '68 as a 10 year old.

There IS hope in the post-millennials if we can survive to hand them the baton. But we need to keep the hippies from passing THEIR baton to the snowflakes. Ideally by destroying THEIR baton. I pray Trump can accomplish that. Before we can save the rest of a world that needs saving we must first win the war for our home front. A war most 'on our side' refuses to admit exists.

Strange.. they immediately investigated and obtained the boy's name and whereabouts... but cannot do the same kind of investigative work on the Clinton emails, etc, etc
