D.C. sandwich chain owner learns there’s nothing liberals won’t boycott

If youre a liberal these days, you may have trouble keeping up with all of the new actions coming out of the Trump White House which enrage you. If youre a conservative youve probably already lost track of the number of things the liberals are marching, protesting about, condemning and boycotting. On that last point you can now add one more to the list. The evil ownership of Taylor Gourmet, a local chain of hoagie shops around the Beltway, has gone too far and drawn the ire of progressive activists. (For those of you from other parts of the country, a hoagie is just another regional name for a sub sandwich, grinder or whatever you call it in your area.) The specific target of liberal ire is Casey Patten, co-founder of the business.

 

So what has Patten done to enrage the Left? Did he endorse the travel ban? Pay his female employees less? Offer to feed the workers when they start building the wall? Nope. He was photographed shaking Donald Trumps hand after a ceremony announcing new White House initiatives to boost small businesses. And that was enough to let slip the hounds of protest.

I dont want to make it sound as if Im disparaging these efforts entirely. In fact, I want to help. I have it on good authority that Donald Trump eats food. Ive also personally seen footage of him drinking water. Are you really going to associate yourselves with this monster by mimicking his actions? I suggest you stop eating and drinking in protest until the President steps down. As for me, all this writing has made me hungry. I think Ill go order a hoagie.
