Green Bay mayor warns Trump before visit that hospitality 'has its limits'
Fox News ^ | June 25 2020 | Louis Casiano

The mayor of Green Bay, Wis., penned a letter to President Trump ahead of his visit to the battleground state, warning him that his city won't tolerate "ignorance" and won't endorse "divisive and bigoted rhetoric."

Mayor Eric Genrich, a Democrat, released the letter Wednesday and posted it to social media.

“We are an increasingly diverse city with a vibrant immigrant heritage and culture and strong connections to the indigenous people who call our region home,” he wrote. “Our instinct toward hospitality, of course, extends to our president, but I want you to know that it has its limitations. We don't tolerate intolerance or willful ignorance, and we won't endorse or ignore divisive and bigoted rhetoric."

This tool was a librarian before he got into politics. My gaydar is going off pretty strong with him, though I don’t see any confirmation of it anywhere.

So he has insulted the world’s best troll. What does he think will happen next? Will Trump invite him to the rally? Will he be jeered by his diverse constituency? Popcorn please.

Meanwhile, the Mayor’s own “intolerable intolerance and willful ignorance serves as endorsement of his ignorant, divisive, and bigoted rhetoric.”

Yet another reason to be happy that I threw out my Packer gear four years ago, after I disowned the nfl.

How rude! Maybe he’s imitating that Atty. Gen. of Michigan. A few months ago she “ordered” Pres. Trump to wear a mask during his visit to that state. She was near hysterical when photo surfaced showing Trump not wearing a mask.

We don't tolerate... intolerance

Democrats are incapable of detecting cognitive dissonance even between two consecutive words in the same sentence. That is some Biden grade dementia right there.

Eric Genrich is a hatemonger, against free speech, and accusing the President of his own sins.

Trump needs to very publicly slap this ass wipe upside the head for his talking down to Trump like this. Leftist have been getting away with this sort of tactic for way too long now.
