WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s rare outing to a local restaurant Tuesday night got off to a rocky start when he came face to face with protesters.

Trump, accompanied by Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other administration officials, arrived by motorcade at Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab less than a quarter-mile from the White House.

Trump briefly spoke to reporters on the street outside the restaurant, where he was met with cheers and some chants of “free Palestine.”

Once he was inside, as he greeted restaurant patrons, a group of protesters holding Palestinian flags began chanting, “Free D.C., free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time.”

The publicity stunt backfired.

Lol backfired. Any opportunity for leftist loons to make asses of themselves should be happily welcomed.

Would you call getting national attention, on every news station across the country, as 'backfiring'? 'Code Pink' is the name of an activist group that wasn't well-known until yesterday. And once again, your critical thinking skills have failed.

Personally i find these types of protests to being embarrassing, and mostly counter productive.
That being said,I do think that someone like a Trump who only keeps yes men and cult members close needs to hear disent.

It's an auto response from a cult member, He has to say something negative no matter what.

I think they're brave and necessary. Our right to speak out against a dictatorship is all we have right now, and more people should do it.

I agree with that more people should speak out against this admin for sure.

Usually the ones doing it are the stereotypical lefty "weirdos" that the RW media uses to mock the left over. Average non-political people see them on the news and think the
left is a just a bunch of weirdos.
We need middle America to stand up if we are going to have a chance.

 

[TangoNoCash]

The ridiculous actions and claims of the left are just increasing Trump's popularity. The left media isn't trusted by any but the most die hard far left wingers and the political leadership of the democrat party have bungled everything they touch.

It's hilarious you think he's getting more popular. His under 30 demographic literally fell off a cliff. Where's the integrity in your statement?

Feminists for Palestine!

You don't think that A feminist shoudlhave sympathy for women and children being starved to death?

The next Trumpy Truthy tweet will be epic.

"HAD AN AMAZING TIME, DINING IN DC WITH PETE, JD, AND LIL' MARCO, NOW THAT I'VE MADE IT SAFE, FOR ALL! MANY, MANY PEOPLE CAME OUT TO THANK ME, WITH CHANTS OF LOVE AND ADORATION - THANK YOU, DC!!! WE ARE, MAKING AMERICA SAFE, AGAIN, ONE CITY AT A TIME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!"

Isn't it time they nailed him to the cross?

Code Pink was started as a group opposed to the Bush-Cheney push for war with Iraq. The name was a play on the White House warnings of Code Orange, etc. The group gained notoriety in the Bush years for interruptions of Congressional hearings — the screeching blond woman was Medea Benjamin, co-founder of the group. The other founder, Jodie Evans, had a Code Pink office in Venice, as well as a residence.

Evangelicals have already prayed over him, depicted him head bowed at his desk with Jesus standing over him in support, and declared anyone not displaying abject adoration of him to be very very mean and very very unfair.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves - Donald still has a way to go before he attains the status of St. Paul or John the Baptist.

Hope someone was fired. WTF was Trump, Vance, Rubio Hesgeth doing amongst CCP/Iranian funded terrorist?

The Secret Service just burned Your Hero the Generalissimo Trump right there in DC and a couple of blocks from the WH.

These Code Pink gals got right there into the restaurant that should have been sealed from an hour beforehand with only already cleared patrons allowed in. Indeed, the SS would have checked out every part of the restaurant inside, outside to include the roof and adjacent rooves and in a radius outside.

The SS is not this incompetent or inept, no way! These great gals in their pink uniforms got in right there under Trump's orange nose because they were allowed in -- if not escorted in. Or, it is potentially a catastrophic fail by the SS of Presidential security which is a challenge to consider or imagine.

Watch now for a Big Deal about investigating the Secret Service for this massive breach of Presidential security. This is a humongous breach of security against Trump, to include his "guests" the The VP Vance, SecState Marco and the SecDef Petey Boy in addition to some key WH staff and other staff.

This is an epic breach of Presidential and top government level security for which the secret service is totally in charge.

I'm a little surprised they let Trump out in public.

MAGA is already there. The difficult part will be explaining away the pedophile rape. Actually, it won't be difficult at all for that long indoctrinated group that accept literally anything about him, and actually find ways to blame others! The most perverse version of the shared group leader messiah complex, or conscience collective, E-V-E-R!

While I don’t recall Code Pink members ever having been this close to a sitting President, they have in the past managed to enter heavily secured events, including important speeches at GOP conventions. They can, and do, present as “proper ladies,” and have pearl necklaces and high heels on hand when needed.

They certainly can, just as they could/should have had sympathy for German children who were killed in bombing attacks.

But I don't remember any women brandishing Nazi flags to do so.

You forgot the 'tears in their eyes'.

 

[SCrider]

That's what I thought.

You talking about WW2? Why ?

 

[SNOWFLAKE]

I've always had much better things to do with my life.

Like maybe running to debate forums to run cover for Trump? That kind of better thing?

Yes, the group was seated already at a table next Trump's longer rectangular table. They had banners and a Palestinian flag concealed.

This is one of 'em outside the restaurant after the secret service tossed the group of 'em.

She is identified as Alli McCracken, 27, daughter of a Republican who also got into the Republican convention last year to unfurl a Palestinian banner when Trump and Melania appeared, and before being tossed.


Secret Service is getting hammered now for the breach of Presidential security and for taking up to 5 minutes to get control of the small group and escort 'em out. I think myself the rug design and looking front can look suspicious in present times and circumstances.

MAGAs are also blaming WH advance staff members who chose the restaurant after checking it out. They say the owner is a Democratic party donor and so on. The restaurant is also being bombarded with a landslide of 1 ratings since the location was announced so there's that too in the opposite political direction, meaningless as it is.


Code Pink DC organizer Olivia DiNucci spoke about it: “[They] sat down right next to us, and people were giving them an applause. We were saying, ‘Free D.C., free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time’—saying that we need troops out of everywhere.” She added, “For us, it’s the fact that he’s eating food that is grown, picked, transported, by the very same people that his regime is abducting from their neighborhoods and terrorizing, at the same time funding and supporting the forced starvation and genocide of the Palestinian people.”
