Trump Diehards Create Their Own Yelp for MAGA-Friendly Restaurants


Will your pizza place protect you from antifa? These Trump fans want to know.

Everywhere they look, Donald Trump’s supporters feel like they’re under attack. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to leave a restaurant; Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was chased out of another. Right-wing media outlets are filled with stories of liberals pulling off “Make America Great Again” hats.

Trump supporters have even come up with a term for this phenomenon that has them feeling under siege: “MAGAphobia.”

Now, in a move reminiscent of the “Green Book” guide that listed safe establishments for African-American motorists in the South, hyper-vigilant Trump supporters are trying to build their own guide to MAGA-friendly businesses.

Trump supporters who want to grab dinner but are terrified of getting punched by an antifascist “antifa” activist can pull up the app, “63red Safe,” and find a list of Trump-friendly businesses—or at least ones that don’t discriminate against conservatives.

So how many Dems/progressives/antiRumpers are gonna go to these establishments and give them a poor review? It could economically hurt them ...

but it’s not clear why one pizza place is rated as “not safe” and another as “safe.”

I'm guessing the MAGAts don't need this spelled out - those restaurants are a on "the wrong side of the tracks".
