Red Hen owner had turned away another Republican a few years ago




For those without Twitter:

It is rumored that the owner of the Red Hen also asked Scott Baio to leave her restaurant a few years ago but it was because they weren’t hiring at the time.

my wife & daughter were still in the kitchen discussing the SAT and I started cracking up out loud in the next room, so they were wondering what I was laughing about

Well, in the spirit of welcoming civility, I'd like to extend cordial invitations to Dwonald Drumphf, all the hate media executives all Nazi alt/right followers and other deplorables to my new bistro, specializing in Atropa belladona apertif, cottage cheese ketchup soup, carrot okra cheeto salads, fried pidgeon Filet, cat kibble sauerkraut surprise, pimento tuna jello casserole and top off your evening with a slice chocolate ExLax tapioca pineapple date cake.
You'll never have to hunt for swank outlets lacking the scruples to serve you again.

restaurants that just happen to have the same name

Though Sanders’ tweet about the incident specified that the restaurant she had visited is in Lexington, President Donald Trump added to the confusion on Monday when he slammed the Red Hen on Twitter without identifying which Red Hen restaurant he was referring to.

Red Hen is not a chain restaurant, and at least four unaffiliated restaurants with the same name have been subject to critical comments on their social media and Yelp pages, as well as harassing calls.

and then they enumerate some
