Trump supporter attacked at Cheesecake Factory over MAGA hat: report
By Michael Bartiromo | Fox News

The Cheesecake Factory is investigating an incident at one of its Miami locations after a black customer claims he was verbally attacked by staff over his “Make America Great Again” hat, The Daily Wire reports.

Eugenior Joseph, 22, was reportedly dining with his girlfriend’s family at the Dadeland Mall location of the restaurant on Mother’s Day. His MAGA hat allegedly drew the attention of a female staff member, who gathered her co-workers to confront him, a witness told the site. The witness further claimed about a dozen of those employees circled his table, pointing fingers.

...

Other witnesses for The Daily Wire said some employees used the n-word in reference to Joseph when speaking among themselves, while another brandished his fists.

If an employee used a racial epithet, not only should they be fired on the spot but the restaurant can probably be sued. But at this point, when it is only witnesses who say this, it's a bit early to tell.  Also, if one goes to the link, the person attacked was a black male wearing the cap.  The story seems pretty far out but possible I guess.

Maybe the employees who allegedly said this furthermore, were not white, maybe even not Hispanic, you know, using the word like in rap songs. And the girlfriend of Eugenior Joseph? I wonder if she might be possibly white. That could add in to things too. We aren't getting the full story so far. Police report?

This is really far out, allegedly, some employees talked about assaulting the guy? Really?
