I have ZERO tolerance for Trump supporters.

I have ended using subcontractors that are MAGA nuts.
I have had enough of any service workers who are MAGA.

The local breakfast diner, I always joke and talk and usually put in a
slam at Trump……one of the wait staff obviously was MAGA,,

So now I never sit in her section if at all possible,
There’s another great progressive waitress that we always try to
get a table
