Once I figured out what was going on, I had them all towed because I hate Trump.

The majority of Americans Do not like Trump and he is in for an ass kicking this fall.

But Dunkin's is on my shit list...a part of the Republican-owned fast-food group Inspire Brands which is owned by the Roark Group.
The Roark Group owns or franchises most of the big fast-food businesses in America. They also give millions to Republican candidates every cycle and spend millions lobbying against minimum-wage increases nationally and across the states.

When they are the most anti American creatures to exist. They don't love America because they wouldn't be supporting a thug who wants to destroy it.

And why do they all look grimey? They are the most unattractive bunch of people I've ever seen, inside and out.
