Only on TA 16 could we get this argument.

MAGA ( Make All GIrls ..... )

Okay, I doubt that there is much in this guy's political platform with which I would agree, but major kudos to him for his attitude regarding Chick-fil-a

Pete Buttigieg the first openly gay presidential candidate from a major party worries those who boycott Chick-fil-A because of its executives' long opposition to gay marriage are inconsistent and "too sanctimonious" in their attempts to make a political point.

"I just want to make sure we don't overrate ourselves in terms of our ability to be pure in this regard," Buttigieg, the Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, said Wednesday during an interview with BuzzFeed News' AM to DM......

"I do not approve of their politics," Buttigieg told listeners, "but I kind of approve of their chicken."...

"I just want to make sure that we're not too sanctimonious about this, because sometimes we put ourselves in this position of judgment that doesn't really hold up under scrutiny," he said Wednesday. "My belief is that we should primarily deal with political issues in the political arena."

Most of the Chick-fil-A "boycott" is a nonissue anyway. I've been traveling all over California the last few months for work and Chick-fil-A is second only to In-N-Out in fast food popularity everywhere I've stopped. The double drivethrough lines always fill the entire parking lot (often into neighboring lots) and overflow into the streets during peak hours. Like In n out, I will not eat there except during non peak hours, where the lines are long, but not to the point of laughable and even dangerous (seriously, they spill into major street intersections, no exaggeration). And the employees work their butts off and are stupid polite, which is confusing here in California. And since they're always so busy there are never fewer than 20 employees hauling ass at any given time, so they are job creators to boot.

Don't let the vocal minority fool you, everyone loves them some Chick-fil-A, even in liberal havens. To be honest, I don't think 99% of the people in California have any clue they're supposed to hate them. Most of the population doesn't keep up with the "who do we hate this week" liberal talking points of the SF, Oakland, etc. Of course, people in the working class parts of LA also aren't terrible gay-rights friendly surprisingly.

Funny thing is Chick-fil-A is booming in NYC too.

My daughter started at NYU 3 years ago in 2016 and at the time there were only 2 locations on Manhattan - touristy one on 6th Ave. very near Rockefeller Center which seemed to be mostly out of towners who loved Chick-Fil-A and wanted a quick bite. And the one in one of the NYU dining halls (Weinstein) down on 9th St. and University Place. My daughter was thrilled to have the NYU one for a dining option and said all the students loved it and it wa always busy.

Back in 2012 there were apparently some protests on the campus one at NYU - but it got no traction cuz even the liberal kids loved them some chicken nuggets.

Now 3 years later they have opened several more locations in Manhattan - near Bryant Square Park in midtown, 42nd street over near Grand Central Station, and 8th avenue up by Studio 54 and Lincoln Center area, another over in Queens, one on Staten Island, and there are several in NJ but I don't know how long they have been there. My daughter has been to all the Manhattan ones and says they are always packed.

That made me laugh too.

Oh nevermind..... I get it now. It's not from 2017 it's from 2016. A prediction/nightmare.
