Biden grilled for claiming restaurants kick people out ‘for being gay’

Some on social media are criticizing President Biden for pretending that kicking gay Americans out of restaurants is a widespread phenomenon in 2022.

During a meeting celebrating the passage of the Respect for Marriage Act on the South Lawn of the White House on Tuesday, Biden said, “When you can get married in the morning and get kicked out of a restaurant for homosexuality in the afternoon, that’s is still wrong.”

Biden’s comments were met with questions and criticism on Twitter.

“ASK PRO: People in America aren’t being kicked out of restaurants for being gay. But in the last two years, they’ve been kicked out for being Christian. And they’ve been kicked out for not being vaccinated,” Jesse Kelly, a conservative commentator, tweeted.

Matt Walsh also cast doubt on Biden’s argument. “This situation has not happened anywhere in the country, it is not happening, and it will never happen. It is all the thinking of leftists,” he wrote.

“Give him credit: No president has ever done anything to solve a whole, non-existent problem like Joe Biden,” said podcast host Gerry Callahan.

Radio host Dana Loesch tweeted, “I’ve never seen a gay guy get kicked out of a restaurant but I’ve seen progressives kick conservatives out of restaurants. Just ask.” @SarahHuckabee.”

Richard Grenell, who is the first openly gay member of the president’s cabinet, tweeted, “This only happens if you’re a conservative because of the leftists right now.”

“No matter what kind of illusion or American outrage Biden portrays, his delusions are rallying the Democrats, that’s what he’s worried about,” said radio host Buck Sexton.

Alex Sears, a social media and digital strategist at the Republican National Committee, tweeted, “This really happened, except the group that got thrown out of the restaurant were Christians.”

“President Non Sequitur has spoken,” Pluribus Editor Jeryl Bier tweeted.
