Kid Rock's restaurant closes to avoid ICE raids?

[HDGristle]

God dammit, Bobby. If this is true, what you doin, boy? And none of that "only God knows why" nonsense.

The restaurant Kid Rock’s was among several others inNashvilleowned by the conservative restaurateur andDonald Trumpsupporter Steve Smith where undocumented kitchen staff were asked to go home to avoid rumored immigration raids this weekend.

The restaurant – whose full name is Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N’ Roll Steakhouse, and is licensed by the rightwing musician Kid Rock, who has also become one of the US president’shighest-profile supporters– reportedly found itself struggling to serve post-concert crowds on Saturday night after the order from managers instructing employees without legal status to leave, according to theNashville Scene.

“Around 9.30pm on Saturday, our manager came back and told anyone without legal status to go home,” one anonymous employee told the outlet.

“Events at the Ryman, Ascend, the Savannah Bananas’ baseball game all let out, and it was crazy busy. But there was no one in the kitchen to cook the food.”

The hypocrisy of MAGA knows no limits

It's always fun to watch people throw stones in glass houses

And who, oh who, could possibly have tipped Kid Rock off? The smart money says it was the same guy who employs illegals at Mar-A-Lago.

if Trump was going to tip him off wouldn't it make more sense for Trump to "suggest" that ICE not go there to investigate to begin with? I'm not a fan of Kid Rock at all but it's a reach to think he was tipped off.

He still has his base of knuckle draggers to appease. He needs to make it look like he's really cracking down on illegals, but tips his buddy off so he wouldn't get caught up in it, and look like the horrible hypocrite that he is. Sounds perfectly trumpian to me.

trump's approval rating is in the toilet, and Kid Rock needs that restaurant money.
