MAGA, one waiter at a time.
Last month Oakland Athletics rookie catcher Bruce Maxwell became the first Major League Baseball player to take a knee during the National Anthem. Now that he’s back home in Alabama, he’s seeing first-hand how much some people are upset with him for that.
Maxwell, 26, told TMZ Sports that he’d been home in Harvest, Ala., for all of four hours when a waiter at a local restaurant refused to serve him because he chose to take a knee in pursuit of racial equality and in protest of President Donald Trump calling kneeling NFL players “sons of bitches.” Maxwell says he was out to eat with a friend from high school who is now a city councilman.
Maxwell described the encounter with the waiter to TMZ thusly:
“He was like, ‘You’re the guy who took the knee? I voted for Trump and I stand for everything he stands for.'”
