Vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance's attempt to greet supporters at Primanti Bros. was met with denial, while Vice President Kamala Harris was welcomed at the same establishment. This double standard highlights Harris's hypocritical stance on supporting small businesses and her self-serving political agenda.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of Pittsburgh's Primanti Bros. sandwich shop, a stark contrast emerged between the treatment of two political figures: Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris.
On Saturday, Vance's campaign was refused entry into Primanti Bros., leading to disappointment and anger among waiting voters. The incident sparked threats of boycotts and caused Vance to rightfully question the establishment's actions. However, Vance displayed grace and forgiveness, opting to pay for the crowd's meals with a generous tip.

Primanti Bros. later released a statement claiming the employee's decision was due to being surprised by the cameras. In a spirit of reconciliation, Vance downplayed the incident, emphasizing that it was important not to hold the employee accountable.
Contrastingly, Harris's campaign posted a video showcasing her warm reception at the same Primanti Bros. location in August. The message was clear: Democrats are welcome, while Republicans are not. This blatant display of political favoritism is particularly troubling considering Harris's recent boycott of Fox News and her accusation that former President Donald Trump is only in it for himself.

Harris's actions not only betray her alleged support for small businesses but also undermine Primanti Bros.' efforts to quell the controversy and assure customers that everyone is welcome. By highlighting her own attendance at the establishment while Vance was denied entry, Harris exacerbates the division and creates unnecessary drama.
This incident brings to light the stark difference between Vance's classy handling of the situation and Harris's self-serving politicking. It raises questions about Harris's true intentions and her willingness to prioritize her own political ambitions over the well-being of others.

The San Francisco woman's assessment of Harris as someone who "doesn't seem to believe in much" rings true in this instance. Harris's actions reveal a lack of empathy and a manipulative approach to gaining political advantage.
Moreover, Harris's double standard raises concerns about the potential for political segregation in our businesses and communities. Her actions suggest that she believes it's acceptable to divide businesses based on the political views of their customers.

The brutal truth is that Harris's moral compass is driven solely by the pursuit of victory, with little regard for the well-being of the people she claims to represent. She is willing to exploit small businesses and create division for her own political gain.
As we have witnessed in Primanti Bros., businesses should not become pawns in the political game. They should be places where everyone feels welcome, regardless of their political affiliations. Harris's actions undermine this principle and cast a shadow over the reputation of small businesses across the country.
