A bit of happy news for your Sunday Morning. “A public relations contractor who previously worked for the Democratic National Committee said that he was kicked out of Hill Country Barbecue Market after he confronted a diner wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat on the Fourth of July.”
According to the report J. T. Helmstetter, who also worked for the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, told the MAGA-hat wearing diner that “we don’t tolerate racism in this city.” He’s referring to D.C. and tell that to the kids who lost their school choice money when Obama shut off funding.
Helmstetter says he probably said some other things, especially to the woman who was with him. She got up and started poking Helmstetter in the chest. Swearing may have been involved.
That’s when a Hill Country manager told Helmstetter, but not the target of his ire, to leave. On Twitter, Helmstetter said that Hill Country “chose to protect the Nazi’s right but not mine” to dine at the restaurant. Helmstetter then walked outside and called a Hill Country manager, who supported his staff’s decision to boot him.
Twitter was not supportive of his plight. Helmstetter had to make his account private after his rant failed to collect the kind of support he sought.
