tRump Humpers out in full force at the local bagel shop, Lake Forest, CA

A popular local bagel/coffee shop in Lake Forest - musta opened back up this weekend.

I was at Ralphs picking up groceries. As I was leaving, I drove past the bagel shop. Packed like sardines outside. Absolutely no social distancing. Did not see a single mask on the maybe 30 people outside. Tables set up maybe three feet apart. Mothers holding children under a year old, chatting with friends maybe two feet away. No line outside the door so I assume the line was inside, most likely without social distancing as well.

Unbelievable.

One guy with his mask down around his chin, talking loudly to his wife who had a mask on the proper way. I’m guessing he’s from the “I’ll put it up if they say something to me” wing of the tRump Humpers.

are here and there at every place in California. That’s astonishing that you can spot many trumpers at a coffee shop. Clothing? Red hats?

If only 30% are republican that’s still a lot of people (12 million). Also Orange County is very republican.

Deaths don't lie.

We'll know soon enough whether we're all overreacting, or whether the U.S. is Fucked.

It's pretty much everyone. Im in Tahoe and it's been hell this weekend, so many people and NO precautions...

I guess people just decided it's "over" now and they wanna have their haircuts and bagels and summer.

perhaps all these people around the country should spend a day observing nurses in the hospitals trying to save lives from this virus. It will make it very real.

Oxygen capacity can be cut 75%. You feel like you’re suffocating. I heard one doctor say that patients thrash around so badly that the tie them down to the gurney. There’s nothing they can do for them - no drugs proven to mitigate the horrors.

the Virus other than the State shutting down non-essential business. You can't trust a notable amount of people to have any clue or self control not to behave in ways that spread it.

14. Bagels and Brew at Lake Forest & Trabuco?

A lot of the regulars there are MAGAts

Old guys sitting in the front corner on weekdays are complete Fox Suckers. Unfortunately sat there one day and had to listen to 10 minutes of their shit. One guy somewhat knew they were being assholes and said, sorry you had to listen to us fix the world. I responded, it that what that was? I just heard some astoundingly ignorant shit! Not a fucking word back, it is the mob mentality of them, they think it makes them a part of the club to loudly talk crap. Rather than sitting in a local bar they go to Bagels & Brew in the morning.

With them it seems to be a lot of talk about stocks. Never hear politics. And never as loud. Seems to be a mixed group of retirees. Woman included, not just the old guys. Stay away from Bella’s or Beladonas in the Ralph’s center up in Foothill. Three day old bagels. Used to have a tv going and a few old dudes bitching, owner shut the tv down. Hasn’t improved the bagels

It's been the experience of most of us,
that death cures stupidity,
and unfortunately,
it has an impact on ignorance.

I read a story about favorite foods by state. Nachos/salsa and sushi were very popular in places deep red where many often call for "forners" to be sent home (even apply that to people that were born here and know no other "home&quot .

Bagels and Brew Cares About their customers. A big shout out to Bagels and Brew here in Lake Forest! I have been going there for many years but I saw that a few customers were going in without masks and were not being questioned about that by staff. I wrote a respectful note to management that my husband is fighting Stage IV cancer and I can’t afford to bring the virus home so I wouldn’t be able to come to the store any longer. I received a very prompt reply that Bagels and Brew would now be requiring masks in order to come inside the store. In addition - they would bring my purchases outside to the curb if need be. WOW! I am so impressed with them and so very grateful that they care enough about their customers and their staff to do the right thing to keep everyone safe and healthy. I hope all of you give them your business and support their efforts. I know I will......
