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.

We are not the opponents, we are the enemy. Well, in light of their destructive actions towards Christian bakeries and others who won’t either get with their program or keep their mouths shut, I’ll take that role. This simply cannot continue, it will be illegal before they’re finished to be, or express, anything other than leftist. They are outlawing freedom of speech and association every day in some way, and we just keep giving ground. They already set the guidelines for what people can say in almost every public venue of life.

Could this episode mark a historic tipping point? Will we use "Alinski Tactics" against the left? Will the next MAGA mass protest rally begin in Lexington, VA, and move North?

Being polite and taking the high road is what got us to this mess. Time to apply Obama’s own Chicago Way advice.

[Anima Mundi]

Their name should be BLUE hen.

[Chaguito]

Idiot commenter at Yelp doesn’t know what “eating crow” means.

[metmom]

Next restaurant will probably POISON her and her kids!! Democrats are UNHINGED HATERS!

And that's exactly WHY one leaves a restaurant where they treat others like that.

You have NO idea what they are doing to your food, what they are putting into it, if you remain.

Anyone who would treat others like that is someone who cannot be trusted to act with integrity when they are not being watched.

Conservatives should ask Wilkinson, the Director of “Mainstreetlexington” if she would shun conservatives who wish to leverage the organization to open in Lexington?

Would Wilkinson “bake the cake”?

“Lexington, VA” - “Likely a $hit hole city, right?” Beg your pardon but Lexington, Virginia is home to The Virginia Military Institute. And on occasions, THE Institute has been heard from. The only s**t thereabouts is chickens**t from the Ptomaine Domain known as the Maoist Hen.

Just goes to show you who is TEACHING at VMI

[OldMissileer]

How can that be, with it in close proximity to Washington DC?

Lexington, VA is about three hours southwest of DC and just east of the mountains. The area voted 2 to 1 for President Trump and though it is a college town the two colleges there are Washington & Lee University (quite conservative) and Virginia Military Institute (VMI).

The owner's husband has ties to the area including VMI.

[Reddy]

So at this restaurant you get expelled if your politics don’t line up with the kitchen staff??

Who knows what the restaurant workers do on suspicion of right-wing activities by patrons? I wouldn’t put it past them to spit/otherwise into the food.

Hopefully, they will be caught and prosecuted.

“The owner’s husband has ties to the area including VMI.”

And the Moon is made of Green Cheese!

[rodguy911]

Area residents of Lexington Va. should find out whether or not any of the following restaurants all of which are withing walking distance of the Red Hen are conservative friendly or not.
They are:

1. Southern Inn.

2. Bistro on Main

3. Sheridan livery Restaurant

4. Macados

Surely one would welcome conservatives in purple Va. The Red Hen needs to pay a price for its liberal bias.

[Jamestown1630]

Happily, some innocent non-political souls are going to be reading these reviews and running in the opposite direction.

I suspect that most patrons of this place had no idea that the owner would do something like this - and she's going to feel it in terms of future business.

I expect a considered - if insincere - apology will come out, if she wants to stay in business; but it won't help much.

[Neoliberalnot]

This is what happens when showing respect for leftists. Never make a deal with the devil.

[EdnaMode]

She is right!

It has been said that genocide works best by disguising it as love and this nonsense is just that — the left wants to murder us in the name of love.
