The man tapped to ride in the Donald Trump campaign sidecar this election didn’t earn any points with food loving New Yorkers on Twitter this weekend. Mike Pence was in New York for a two-day trip during which Trump named Pence his vice presidential running mate. On Saturday, following a brief speech with Trump, the former former Indiana governor was scheduled to fly home for a brief reprieve before the Republican National Convention. However, his trip took a turn for the worse when his flight was delayed.

As NBC reports, with a few extra hours to kill, Pence and his family decided to grab a quick bite at Tex-Mex baby back rib slinger Chili’s near the airport in Teterboro, New Jersey. The meal might have, like so many Chili’s meals before it, gone unnoticed, forgotten. However, this marked occasion deserved documentation by the Pence camp. "Busy weekend in NY! Enjoying a quick dinner with the family at@Chilis. Looking forward to getting back to Indiana," Pence tweeted.

News of Pence’s meal was not received well by the sleeping beast that is Twitter. Within hours "Chili’s" became a trending topic, as New Yorkers rushed to criticize Pence’s decision to dine at a chain.

Don't worry, plenty of arfcom would agree with the Twitter mob.
This is the place where 50% of respondents will claim they get the runs in any thread about olive garden/chili's/Applebee's/etc. Incredible how those places stay in business

And if they barged into Nobu they would have been criticized as spendthrift elitists.  Only Zippy can feast upon Kobe beef and not be criticized, because he is King of the 'Rats.

That's politics.  




It doesn't matter that he had to stay near the airport to catch a plane and Chili's is the kind of restaurant that you find around airports.




If he went to an upper class place, they would have criticized him for spending too much when some people are poor.




If he went to an ethnic place, they would have accused him of pandering.




Get the idea?

My wife and I spent a few days in the Texas Hill Country recently and ate twice at Chilli's on the river.  Loved it!  Great view, good food and excellent service.  FK Twitter!

So he lost nothing, because none of the asshole NYC elite were voting for his ticket anyways, and he saved a few bucks and leveled himself with the average joe American who eats at chilis and other chains all over the rest of the entire country. So basically he wins? I'm confused why they tweeted?

hillary will be spending a lot to pay for fake posts, tweets, grams, protests and even a few real killings.  But, since she made all that money selling out America, she has it to spend.

Lol, those are everywhere down here, not just Chili's.

It mixes with the margarita as it goes down. Helps thaw the really frozen part in the middle a little bit so you can drink 'em faster.
