President Trump slammed the Red Hen restaurant Monday as “filthy” and rundown, after the Virginia restaurant asked press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders to leave Friday night.
The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!

The co-owner of the Red Hen in Lexington, Virginia, refused to serve Mrs. Sanders and her family on political grounds.
The D.C.-based location distanced themselves from the Virginia location on Twitter Saturday morning.
Good morning! @PressSec went to the unaffiliated @RedHenLex last night, not to our DC-based restaurant.
