As some Republican lawmakers and members of the Trump administration have been kicked out of restaurants or harassed while dining out, Eric Trump said Tuesday that a restaurant employee spit on him during a visit to Chicago.
“For a party that preaches tolerance, this once again demonstrates they have very little civility,” he told Breitbart. “When somebody is sick enough to resort to spitting on someone, it just emphasizes a sickness and desperation and the fact that we’re winning.”
The incident was brought to light by NBC 5 Chicago political reporter Mary Ann Ahern, who said it took place at the Aviary cocktail bar. She reported that the offender was in Secret Service custody.

Anthony Guglielmi, chief communications officer for the Chicago Police, said law enforcement was "assisting" the Secret Service.
“CPD was on scene and assisting the United States Secret Service with a law enforcement matter,” he said. “Any and all inquiries regarding a federal protectee must be directed to the Secret Service.”
Trump described the incident as “purely a disgusting act by somebody who clearly has emotional problems.”
I can fast forward thru commercials because I only watch episodes on demand?
Someone ever spit on me their mouth would be wired shut for the next year
The wonderful tolerant Left.
If the demonratcommiescumbags want War in the Street they might oughta step back and reevaluate. Because We have the Ammo and Firearms plus the knowledge to use them. Most demonratcommiescumbags don’t even know what end the Ammo goes in...
All these people going to third world locales and expecting first world standards are delusional.
Set them up. Talk conservative politics loudly for server to hear. Then have food tested for saliva, urune etc.
Major lawsuit.
Let that sink in.
It is battery if it lands on you.
Not enforcing our laws and not holding government employees accountable doesn't help.
Citizens have little regard for those who enforce the law....the problem begins there.
Oh-THAT’S ‘assault and Delco’
The young woman–an employee of the establishment–came right up to him and spit in his face. Per an eyewitness, she murmured inaudibly something .... Then Secret Service agents who were there protecting Eric Trump jumped into action and took the woman into custody.... She was put in handcuffs and placed in a police paddy wagon, a source with knowledge said. Eric Trump decided not to press charges against the woman in the end, and she was released from police custody.

She just lost her job for sure!
On the contrary, she’s waiting for the Guv to be hiring Queer Studies majors again.
