Full title: Sarah Sanders response to being kicked out of restaurant: Owner's actions 'say far more about her than about me'
Short video at link.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Saturday responded to being kicked out of a Virginia restaurant after a server's post about the incident went viral.
Sanders confirmed the incident in a tweet, and said that she always treats those she disagrees with “respectfully.”
“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,” Sanders 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.”
Jaike Foley-Schultz, a waiter at the restaurant, posted on Facebook that he served Sanders and her family “for a total of 2 minutes” before the owner asked the press secretary’s party to leave.
Trump critics and supporters alike took to the restaurant’s Facebook and Yelp pages to leave one- or five-star reviews responding to the incident. “If you are a whining liberal feel free to eat here, if you are a TRUE AMERICAN stay away,” one Facebook user wrote.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, a five-star Yelp review read: “The best. I've heard that they serve crow to those deserving of it.”
Sanders is the third Trump administration official to be recently targeted at a restaurant, in addition to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and White House senior adviser Stephen Miller.
some investigative journalist should find that out..
any illegals working there..Whats the racial make up of the employees?
do they offer health insurance, matching 401K’s, maternity leave, all of the things liberals believe in?
I've found liberals to be quite “conservative" in their business practices
(I recently had some artwork framed by a bald-headed-pony-tailed older liberal gentleman and asked if he offered any senior or veterans discounts...He said No..but I do give a 10% discount for cash...I also mentioned I like the color of his new Mercedes...)
In a controlled range setting with adult supervision, of course.
That figures! Thanks for the info.
It’s Tripadvisor needs some reviews.
But that is the only way it’s being applied. Partly our own fault, because we just won’t fight back. They destroy people’s lives from baking a cake expressing a message which goes against people’s deepest convictions, we politely move on when they kick us. Alinsky tactics, only used by one side.
“What we are dealing with now, is the politicization of every facet of society, including, apparently, fine dining.”
America has become like a half rotten delicious apple. Thanks democrats.
Their facebook rating is down to 2.2 stars.
They’ve been flooded with savage reviews at Yelp, and their rating is plummeting.
Karma is coming, liberal facist owner.
Soon we’ll see “Democrat Only” dining facilities and drinking fountains.
Yep, that’s where this type of mindset will take us.
What’s up with that damn restaurant? They are saying you have to be liberal to be a customer there? They tell Sarah Sanders they don’t serve “her kind”, meaning her kind politically??

Wait a minute, can people now stop serving minorities and gays if we know that vote Democrat?
Good. It'll give a heads up if the food is safe or not.
Considering how easy it was for one of us to find the owner’s openly extreme leftist opinions, I’m surprised that our officials don’t scope things out better. Do they not realise the atmosphere in this country right now? Are things so civil between the elites of all sides that they don’t understand the very real hatred the left is not just speaking, but enacting against anyone with a thread of any kind of conservative principle or conviction?
I agree...This ongoing hate brings the nut jobs out from under their rocks, sadly one or more will be killed or maimed.
I strongly opposed Obama. But if he came to where I work, I’d treat him with respect. Not “deity-respect”, but the same respect I try to show all customers. It would never occur to me to insult him, yell at him, or refuse him service.
The book “Because They Hate” wasn’t written about liberals, but it might as well have been! I DISAGREE with former President Obama. But I don’t wish him injury, harm or bad service. I don’t HATE Barack Obama.
I don’t have enough hate in me to be a good liberal!

To paraphrase from Band of Brothers, “We salute the office, not the man.”
Ask if the prospective diner voted for President Trump. Any response but a resounding "Yes" would be just-cause for for the business owner to request they leave and to withhold service.
We work with amazing local producers.
