Judge rules New York City bar can refuse service to Trump supporter wearing MAGA hat. Maybe one of these ‘people’ was wearing something offensive?

The lawyer representing The Happiest Hour, Elizabeth Conway, argued that he was not discriminated against because only religious, not political, beliefs are protected under state and city discrimination law.

“Supporting Trump is not a religion,” Conway argued.

The judge eventually made a ruling on the matter, saying the incident amounted to nothing more than a “petty slight,” the Post said.

“Plaintiff does not state any faith-based principle to which the hat relates,” Judge Cohen said. “Here the claim that plaintiff was not served and eventually escorted out of the bar because of his perceived support for President Trump is not outrageous conduct.”
