White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was kicked out of The Red Hen on Friday night. Less than 24 hours later, however, the liberal owner of the restaurant was learning a very valuable lesson.

On Friday evening, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her family were refused service and asked to leave The Red Hen by the owner of the establishment because of Sanders’ affiliation with the Trump administration. Sanders, always a class act, peacefully got up and left the premises without further incident, instead of causing a scene. The Red Hen is located near Washington and Lee University in Lexington in southwestern Virginia, about a three-hour drive from the White House.

According to Daily Mail, the incident first came to light when staff member Jaike Foley-Schultz said he was only able to serve Sanders for two minutes before a manager came over and kicked her out. “I just served Sarah Huckabee Sanders for a total of 2 minutes before my owner kicked her out along with 7 of her other family members,” he posted on Facebook.

The post went viral after Brennan Gilmore, the director of the nonprofit green group Clean Virginia, shared it on Twitter along with a handwritten note from the restaurant which read: “86 — Sara Huckabee Sanders.” Gilmore tweeted, “@PressSecretary got kicked out of The Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Va tonight. Apparently the owner didn’t want to serve her and her party out of moral conviction.”

For those who do not know, “86” is restaurant industry slang meaning “throw out.”

On Saturday morning, Sanders confirmed the story and offered her response on Twitter, writing, “Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for [President Donald Trump] 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.”

Less than 24 hours later, the intolerant restaurant which kicked her out wasn’t fairing quite so well: The Red Hen’s reviews on Yelp have since dropped from 4.5 to 2.5 stars.

Many of the recent posts reflect the Sarah Sanders incident. “Was planning to eat here but they informed me they do not serve my kind. If you hate bigotry & injustice you should give this restaurant a wide berth,” commented Brett from Nashville, Tennessee.

“If you are a ‘deplorable’ don’t bother dining here, you won’t be served. Kicking out someone because of their political beliefs is ridiculous regardless of what you believe,” Gene, from Queen Creek, Arizona, wrote.

“What a missed opportunity!!!” Donna, from Louisville, Kentucky, added. “Instead of being honored that a very successful, high profile female comes to your restaurant, with her family, for just a simple, peaceful meal, you request she leaves because of your political views. Sad. Unprofessional. Disrespectful. Your Dems agree.”

Just as we saw when she was viciously attacked during the White House Correspondents Dinner, Sarah Sanders handled this unfortunate situation with grace, class, and dignity. She could have made a scene, but instead, she acted like a lady and simply left The Red Hen without incident, respecting the wishes of the restaurant’s owner.

Sarah Sanders is a true role model. After all, you cannot control the situations which befall you, but you can certainly control the way you respond to them. The way you respond during a regrettable ordeal like the one Sanders faced on Friday defines you; Sanders is a woman of impeccable character.

Of course, if she were a Democrat, she would be praised by the media, the public, and liberal restaurant owners alike. She is quite an inspiration — she’s the very first press secretary in U.S. history to be a working mother. If she were a Democrat, she’d be the poster child for the feminist movement. But, she works for President Donald Trump, so those on the left are entirely unimpressed by her many accomplishments.

Indeed, Sanders has achieved a great deal of success in both her personal life and her professional life, and she has done so through perseverance and hard work. She is a living, breathing, example that women can do anything if only they are willing to work hard for what they want. The Red Hen deserves every bit of negative attention they get over kicking her out. Isn’t the left supposed to be the party of “tolerance” and “acceptance”? Apparently, not.
