Days after Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters called on her supporters to publicly harass members of President Donald Trump’s administration, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer spoke out against such harassment: “That’s not right, that’s not American.” The topic has taken center stage after a series of incidents in D.C. restaurants and also when press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to leave a restaurant called The Red Hen in Virginia.
