You'd be surprised. I leave generous tips if the service is decent. (It usually is.) I have a couple of Dem friends that I go to lunch with from time to time. (I go with them separately, they do not know each other.) Both are in similar financial circumstances as I am. Both stick to 15%. One of them even has a little card that helps her figure out the 15%. I go for at least 20% --never less.

+1. I've noticed the same thing. In my view, it's because most of my D friends are "Karens" who expect everything to be just so in their little world, and like to control everything, including how much income other people get. My R friends are much more go-with-the-flow. "Hey she worked hard tonight, let's help her out."

Totally agree.

But would you leave a tip for the illegal immigrant working at those restaurants. That was the issue.

A PP stated that half the little ID town was inhabited by Hispanics. I'm betting that many are not here legally and work in restaurants and farms. So, those Trumpsters will happily be served by those people, but still want them to go back to where they came from. Would they leave tips knowing that some of the money was going into the pockets of illegal immigrants? Or would they not leave tips because they don't want to encourage illegal immigrants to come here? What a conundrum.

Goya is the new Gillette. Just circling the drain.

I’m still laughing that a “professional chef” is using canned beans in recipes. And telling customers about it. Lol.

I’m not planning to boycott Goya. The owner can have political views that are different from my own. I think he’s a fool, and was used as a prop, but that is his problem.

[Anonymous]

At this juncture, having a different political view is one thing, but supporting Trump and Trumpism is another.

I like my money going to companies that don't support authoritarianism.

[Anonymous]

I buy a lot of their stuff. I will use what I have and I am done with them.

Spending money on things you never use to own the libz!!!

I bought ten cases of various products this morning and donated then to a food bank in Arlington. The volunteer
who helped me unload them said that they had been getting Goya products all morning.

I’m a lefty but the boycott is just dumb.

Stores often donate directly to AFAC. They’re dumping their Goya inventory so it doesn’t sit on the shelves.

Sure that's it. The conference at the White House was on July 9 and the stores have been dumping their inventory ever since. What's today? July 12.

Because you assume Trump voters don’t eat ethnic foods? Wow, that’s some bubble you’ve insulated yourself in.

Many Trumpsters in middle America think Taco Bell is "real ethnic food".

No, I don't think most middle America Trumpsters have ever bought Goya foods.

^^^ Ignorance personified ^^^

I am continuously amazed at how clueless people here are about the world outside of the blue bubbles. You do realize that their are tons of Latinos in red states.

Many are illegal immigrants who work on farms; some probably work in restaurants, cleaning the table for you, cooking your food. From what I understand, Trump and Trumpsters want them to leave. I wonder if Trumpsters leave tips, or write on the checks "go back to you where you came from".

You are projecting your own ugly thoughts into other people’s heads. People who live in red states aren’t cartoon characters.

You also have a romanticized view of Latinos in the US (typical of UMC white liberals). For example, in Florida, most Latinos are middle class (not just the Cubans) and most of them don’t like illegal immigration anymore than anglos.

This is what Dems refuse to accept. Immigrants who came here *legally* aren't interested in helping other immigrants come *illegally*. Seems to always be the white, woke crowd insisting we need to open our country to anyone and everyone, at any time and for any reason. Nope.

Literally no one is happy about illegal immigration, except for rich and UMC whites and the illegal immigrants who provide their cheap labor. Ironically, their presence contributes to unemployment among poorer Black Americans who have to compete with them for jobs. Google the Chicago bakery that hired several hundred, mostly Black, workers after getting busted by ICE.

Democrats got Trump elected mainly due to their doubling down on the wrong side of illegal immigration due to the tendency of their party leadership and media outlets to lump all Latinos together and assume that they would be grateful to them. The woke crowd still commonly assumes that all Latinos were deeply offended by Trump’s comments about Mexicans, as if all Latinos are Mexican. This is especially problematic in Florida, which has a huge Latino population that is mostly not Mexican.

LOL Literally the R farm owners are happy about illegal immigrants who work on their farms. Oh, and Trump's hotel use illegal immigrant labor. LOL

Would you please stop writing the word “literally” in every post. It’s an annoying tic.

I'm the first PP who responded to the tip question. Of course, I'd leave the same tip. GOP does not hate illegal immigrants, we just think they should come legally and that we cannot continue to have the influx we do without some control. You are very misguided if you think otherwise.
And, yes, the GOP and the Dems benefit from the cheap labor. That doesn't make it right.

Sure, you don't hate them, that's why you just unnecessarily detain the children apart from their parents, causing permanent trauma.

Obama's invitation to youth didn't help.

It didn't do anything. It was 100% Trump's initiative to rip those immigrant families apart, for no other reason than to cause trauma, and conservatives support that. So does Goya.
