URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!
(DC Pundit) – If you’re keeping score at home, this is now at least the second time in her career that Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has been shown the door at a restaurant for the unforgivable crime of being a prominent Republican.
Sanders took to X to describe the incident, which took place at The Croissanterie restaurant in Little Rock.
“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,” she wrote.
Three mothers at lunch. Threatening. Sure.

According to Sanders’ office, the group had already been dining for roughly an hour and fifteen minutes, had paid their bill in full, and had tipped the staff before the owner decided to make their move. In other words, they were practically out the door anyway — but apparently not fast enough for the politically motivated management.
The restaurant released a statement explaining its reasoning, saying it was initially “surprised and uncertain how best to respond” upon realizing the governor was on the premises. It then offered this gem of progressive logic: “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.”
The business added that it ultimately decided to “support our employees and guests who expressed they were uncomfortable,” and while expressing regret at being “placed in this position,” made clear: “We stand by our choice to support our employees and guests.”
As Sanders and her group exited, an individual near the staff allegedly shouted at her and made a crude hand gesture. Classy to the very end.
When intolerant & bigoted business owners tell 1/2 of public to not come we should be gracious & comply as my Daughter/Governor did. But shouldn’t you express the hate BEFORE she ate, paid & tipped? @SarahHuckabee was asked to leave https://t.co/MG7V5I7Xt8

Sanders, to her credit, handled it with more grace than the situation deserved. “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 wrote.
Back in 2018, while serving as White House press secretary, Sanders was asked to leave the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia. Her response then was equally measured: “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.”
Same story, different restaurant. The Left preaches inclusion right up until a Republican walks through the door.
