Cuomo Argues in Favor of Allowing the Banning of MAGA Hat Wearers from Businesses
By Nicholas Fondacaro | February 1, 2019 12:11 AM EST

The Media Research Center has extensively documented CNN’s hatred for Trump supporters over the last few years. But during Thursday’s Prime Time, host Chris Cuomo made a serious argument in support for allowing businesses to ban people wearing MAGA hats under the auspices of it being triggering. If that wasn’t bad enough, CNN Tonight host Don Lemon justified applying prejudices against those wearing the hats as well.

The impetus for Cuomo’s argument a “chef in San Mateo, California saying ‘you wear that hat into my place you're not getting service.’” According to Cuomo, the concern was the “legality and then the appropriateness” of banning MAGA hat wearers. And “Cuomo’s [kangaroo] court” found the chef in the right on both fronts.

After Lemon pointed out that it was legal to ban Trump supporters in hats, Cuomo entered a rhetorical debate with himself:

Well, he has shown contempt for the 2nd Amendment, why not the 1st?

Anti-American putz.

Keep in mind that Trump's primary residence is in NYC.

(I'd move.)

The Dems can't even get the analogy to the Colorado baker right. The baker didn't refuse to serve a customer...he refused to bake a kind of product the customer requested. That is no different than any other business refusing to bake/make something a customer requested for whatever reason the business chooses.
Phillips was willing to sell whatever he baked to whomever wanted it...on his terms. If I run a business only manufacturing Christian items, no one can make sell something with Satanic-themed items.
Nevertheless, the restaurant owner who kicked out the people wearing MAGA hats was perfectly within his rights to do so. If you can refuse service to people not wearing shoes or wearing skimpy clothes, you have the right to refuse service to anybody wearing a particular kind of clothing...including hats with political messages on them you don't like.
If the customer really wants service, he merely has to take off his hat. Or he can go to another restaurant.
Your business may suffer greatly  from denying service to people wearing articles of clothing with political messages on them you don't like, but that is your right.

Cuomo better be careful as the laws of unintended consequences will certainly surface.

If they can ban MAGA hats, the precedent is established.
 Those wearing Che T-shirts will NOT be served and will be asked to leave.
