Both Starbucks and Red Hen have seriously hurt themselves by escalating the situation. With every customer in the country carrying a video camera, there exists the potential for every mis-action to go virule.

The heated, exaggerated rhetoric is carefully crafted to demonize Trump and all conservatives. They are all characterized as EVIL personified. Hence all action is justified in order to stop them. For "decent" folks like Red Hen staff, this only means expulsion and subsequent shaming. What happens when the less scrupulous kind get involved? Perhaps during a benign congressional baseball game.

If you try and tie every single event into the effort of Trump's political opponents to "demonize him" then you come across as paranoid and delusional.

Seriously, do you really think there was coordination between the management at that tiny restaurant the Red Hen, or the Starbucks manager that called the cops with Political operatives? Likewise, do you really think the people eating that the Mexican restaurant were political hacks? Obviously Maxine Waters can be seen as part of the political apparatus to discredit Trump, but that particular event did not "demonize" Trump, it demonized her. Nor was it "crafted" it was idiotic.
Read my statement above. I'll quote it again:
The heated, exaggerated rhetoric is carefully crafted to demonize Trump and all conservatives.
Now go back and read your post quoted above and you will see another "fulfillment" of what I said. You twisted and distorted my words against me, taking them out of context in order to discredit me. But I'm not bothered, they did the same to Jesus. (Mark 14.55-58)

Back to the Point. The nasty events we are seeing every day in the news are not "crafted" per se, but are the result, the evil fruit, of a carefully crafted and exaggerated rhetoric designed to demonize Trump and all conservatives. This bad behavior can only get worse.

This pathetic rhetoric comes from the Democrats, some anti-Trump Republicans, the entire mainstream media, the Hollywood elites, and former deep state operatives, etc.
