Owner Of The Restaurant That Kicked Out Sarah Sanders Steps Down As Leader Of Business Board

Stephanie Wilkinson, the owner of the Red Hen restaurant that asked Sarah Sanders to leave, has stepped down as the leader of her business board.

Stephanie Wilkinson was the executive director of Main Street Lexington, a volunteer-based board tasked with revitalizing the town’s business district and boosting its economic prosperity.

Elizabeth Outland Branner, president of the organization, told WSLS she had accepted Wilkinson’s resignation on Tuesday.

‘Considering the events of the past weekend, Stephanie felt it best that for the continued success of Main Street Lexington, she should step aside,’ she said.

So again– why did this happen? Because of the backlash from Wilkinson’s actions. Not only did she kick Sanders and her family out. She led ANOTHER protest after Sanders’ dinner party decided to eat across the street.

“The owner of the Red Hen – who had just thrown Sarah out – organized a group of people to yell and scream at them at another restaurant,” Huckabee said.

They should shut that restaurant down!!!! I am a democrat and a liberal but this was so uncalled for - 1st. Sanders is a spokesperson for the president no one knows what her politic views are. 2nd - this so called restaurant is one step away from spitting into people's food - are you kidding me - god only knows what discussions were going on in the kitchen before Sanders was kicked out. There will come a point where no politician democrat or republican can eat out in peace!!! Not only should she step down from her company but I believe she should be brought up on charges at least for harassment - enough is enough!!!

She got bashed big time on a Historic Downtown Lexington online poll. They forced her to resign.
