I am going to have to say I don't care for this Tweet. Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with what The Red Hen did at all. That said, they are a small business owned by American citizens, and they have the legal right to refuse service. I don't feel it's appropriate for the President to call them out. Him calling them out and whether or not it's appropriate will be the story in the news all day now. Instead, the story in the news prior to that was that she was kicked out. The Democrats were trying to defend it on TV and online which was harmful to them. Conservatives were on TV and online sticking up for her. Conservatives would vote with their wallets. They were the proper surrogates for him.

If the converse happened and a conservative kicked out Obama's Press Secretary, of course the media would be up in arms about it, but I think we wouldn't like it if Obama called it out.

This reminds me a bit of one of Fawlty Towers' classic episodes,"Basil the Rat".

"Would you..you...you..care for rat?"

While they may claim a right to kick the President’s Press
Secretary out of their restaurant it nevertheless is outrageous. If that is their policy then who else may they refuse to serve? Dangerous area to get into while the pot is boiling. Of course customers can exercise the right of refusal to patronize as well and I have no doubt they will and should.

Well, you are wrong on every single point.
Trump trash talking these bigoted, far left haters is great. The only unfortunate thing is that this outfit is only a tiny restaurant with just 28 seats and no other franchises or restaurants anywhere else. So there is not much I or most Trump supporters who live far from Virginia, can do to put them out of business.

A health inspector I know says that the trendy restaurants are the ones with the nastiest food handling.

The place is going downhill. The awnings look a lot cleaner in Google Street View from 2012.

What a brilliant tweet!

1. Deflects the issue back against the opponent.
2. Delegitimizes opponent.
3. Forces opponent to defend against additional argument that undermines original argument.
4. Redefines situation for outside observers.

Genius.

Seriously just be quiet. You have been doing this “oh, I love him but don’t think he should have done or said this, it’s mean” crap since before he got the nomination. These liberals are extremely psycho since they lost the election. I know. My husband’s sister is one of them. They are eventually going to resort to violence and while the rest of us are preparing for such, you and a few others are worried about mean spiritedness and incivility. You are of no help and frankly, are going to be in the way. Also, if you are a woman, you are giving the rest of us a bad name.

Maybe you’re not a rabid communist pretending to be a normal Freeper.

But if you were, your posts would be just like this.

If I owned a restaurant, could I refuse to serve black people, and ask them to leave because I don’t agree with their politics? After all, all black people have the same political philosophy, right? WRONG! I hope my sarcasm came through.

You are always the alarmist.

This is playing out beautifully. Even Nancy Pelosi had to distance herself from Maxine Waters and other Dems are following suit.

The blowback at the DNC must have been extreme today.

Trump didn't even have to mention this incident at his rally tonight. The damage (to the Dems) is done.

I love it when he hits back. He does it so well. And this place needs some payback for their disgusting behavior. It should be illegal to treat others this way. I wish Sarah’s in-laws had maced these creeps.

First, I doubt a conservative establishment would have been rude to an Obama official, because they would realize the Left would burn them to the ground. Second, Obama AND every Dem and media personality WOULD have made an issue of it.

Being polite was tried for decades. All it accomplished was to make it safe for them to spit on us. Literally.

No more being nice.
