Last week, I was having lunch with two other moms at a restaurant when the owner approached a member of the State Police Executive Protection Detail and said my presence made their employees feel threatened and told us to leave,” Trump’s former Press Secretary complained on X.
“Arkansans are known for their warm hospitality, and while that restaurant didn’t meet that standard, my administration will continue to focus on lifting Arkansans up, not tearing others down,” she added.
The irony here is that she owes her career to her time in Trump’s first administration, a man whose entire political movement is built around tearing down, demonizing, and otherizing innocent people.
The Croissanterie, the establishment in question, gave local outlet THV11 the inside scoop, stating that not only the employees but also diners “raised questions” about Huckabee Sanders.
Presumably they were bothered by her obtrusive staff clogging up the space and struggling with their appetites in the presence of such a profoundly evil woman.
“As business owners and members of this community, we recognized that any course of action carried consequences,” the restaurant stated.
“Allowing her to stay risked being perceived as a lack of support for the community that makes up the majority of our team, as well as their families and friends.”
“Conversely, asking her to leave could be viewed as denying service based on differing beliefs.
Ultimately, we made the decision to support our employees and guests who expressed they were uncomfortable,” they said.
“We regret being placed in this position and having to make a difficult decision,” added the restaurant.
“However, we stand by our choice to support our employees and guests.”
Additionally, the restaurant exposed Huckabee Sanders for lying — par for the course for a Republican politician — by stating that they do “not recall any statements indicating that anyone felt threatened.”
The governor’s team had to be asked twice to leave before they finally departed.
Hilariously, one customer made an “inappropriate hand gesture” as Huckabee Sanders left.
“Good morning!
Sarah Huckabee Sanders no amount of evil you send our way can ever take our smiles away!!!” employee Zachary Hickman posted on Facebook with a group photo of the staff. “I’m proud af to work here! I’m proud af to be gay and I’m proud af to be an Arkansan. My voice matters. Try again.”
