OMG - Stuck it to a Trumper in the wild [View all]

I've been looking at used vehicles and found one at my local dealership. I called to schedule a test drive and spoke with a salesman named Allen. So I entered the dealership and asked for him. Well there was Allen with a big ol'e Trump hat on.

So I promptly told the man introducing us that I would not do business with Allen, He asked why and I said I would not do business with anyone wearing that hat and turned to walk out.

Then I heard a voice saying "I'll help you". I turned and saw a nice young black woman and said told the man, she is my salesman.

Needless to say she was delightful and professional. I almost don't want to do business with the dealership but I do want the vehicle and I'm glad she will get the commission.

I'm wondering what Allen thought.
