On Saturday Rep. Maxine Waters called on her supporters at a rally to harass Trump’s Cabinet officials in protest to the administrations policies.
“If you see anybody from the Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” Waters said.
Waters’ comments come after Press Secretary Sarah Sanders was booted from a restaurant in Virginia. Sanders wrote on Twitter, “Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left. 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.”

Stephanie Wilkinson, co-owner of the Red Hen responded to the incident saying, “I have a business, and I want the business to thrive. This feels like the movement in our democracy when people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals.”
How ironic, considering it was only two weeks ago that the same loony liberals were hash-tagging #bakethecake and insisting on forcing Christian bakers to act contrary to their convictions.
Since the story broke, The Red Hen has been bombarded with negative reviews online, forcing Yelp to step in and “clean up” comments they believe are motivated by news coverage.
