White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders was kicked out of a restaurant on Friday, becoming the second top aide of President Donald Trump to face public wrath amidst increasing pressure on him over his controversial policy of separating migrant children from their parents at the Mexican border.
Stephanie Wilkinson, a co-owner of the Red Hen in Lexington, Virginia, asked Sanders and her family to leave as a protest against the Trump administration. Sanders later tweeted that "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."
Wilkinson defended her action, saying she believed Sanders worked for an "inhumane and unethical" administration. Wilkinson said she "would have done the same thing again."
