It’s sucked. Didn’t understand the hype at all. Just straight garbage. https://t.co/6I6wKhBcc1
Good to know the food matches the attitudes of the staff.

Would they have allowed Tim Walz to come in and meet supporters?

It's a terrible look.
Vance showed a lot of class in how he handled this! https://t.co/T0hChfVX4X

Just last month @primantibros kicked everyone out of their establishment so Kamala Harris could bring in actors and pretend she was organically visiting with supporters. A total facade to fool everyone, and… pic.twitter.com/VCuZItQSqT
Apparently, Primanti Bros. has no problem allowing SOME elected officials to hold campaign events.
Ohh yeah….i was waiting for this establishment to bring out some BS line about just too many people there and safety hazards and other garbage…but this seals the deal…definite political motivation.
