Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders took to Twitter Saturday morning to let followers know that the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia refused to serve her because she worked for President Trump.
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

A disgusting double standard that only seems permissible if the left does it. If a Conservative business did this, it would make National news and boycotts would be everywhere from leftists political leaders and celebrities.
The Red Hen in Washington, D.C. quickly took to Twitter to claim they were in no way affiliated with the Lexington, Virginia location.
Good morning! @PressSec went to the unaffiliated @RedHenLex last night, not to our DC-based restaurant.

This is so disgusting and really a reflection on the owner. Hope her business goes belly up.
Time for a boycott of that restaurant?
IF EVERY CONSERVATIVE PASS THIS information around Facebook and every other social media post they would get the message.
In other words if the conservative money dries up, the business will dry up the Lexington Red Hen.
The DC franchise should prove they’re strong opposition to the Lexington franchises Behavior by publicly offered the Sanders a public apology on the media platforms and let it be known that she is unequivocally welcome in her store as well as any other conservative. Or take it to the extreme measure shut all of the red hands down.
