How are they not calling to warn the restaurants?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

They are the most entitled pricks walking.
How are they picking restaurants where they're not absolutely certain they'll be welcomed?
I didn't propose to my (now) wife until I already knew what the answer would be. These chucklefucks are out here not even doing the bare minimum due diligence. Just showing up and hoping for the best.
The restaurant is getting review-bombed by pissy Republicans who are mad a business didn't want to be associated with rapists and misogynists.
Yeah. The original Primanti Brothers in the city is a tiny hole-in-the-wall diner-like place. The other ones, like the one Vance went to, are a lot different and generally low-key. Kind of like Applebee's with way different food. Plus, there are a good amount of people in the Pittsburgh area that would just stop eating/drinking there if they'd have allowed this to happen.
The review bombing is bullshit because contrary to popular belief, everything you read on the internet is not true.
Sounds like free advertising to me! For the low price of a couple of cancelled orders, you've just generated the most amazing set of review-reply opportunities imaginable
aint nothing going to give them business like this article. If I lived in the area I would be looking to go for a meal as soon as I could.
First thing I ever learned about lawering, and IANAL, is, "Never ask a question you don't already know the answer to."
Seems the campaign isn't as competent as I was as a child. In the 70s.
Well obviously the restaurants should all just feel extremely gifted that such a prestigious person was gracing their establishment
/s but that's probably their thought pattern
Because they don't want to be told to fuck off before they get there.
That would be less embarrassing
Yeah, but they don't know how to feel embarrassed. Calling ahead makes it obvious they're not wanted, which is a hell of a hit to their pride. Doing shit this way hurts their pride less because they can make up whatever excuses they want to justify why they get a cold reception, being told not to come is so much worse because it's clear that they are unwanted and unwelcome.
According to the restaurant owner, they were not notified. But apparently there were customers already there meaning to see Vance. So i guess the campaign told fans to come, but didn't bother telling the restaurant a bunch of armed secret service and media were going to descend? If nothing else at least the courtesy to help the restaurant be prepared for extra customers?
I think they know there's a 60-70% chance they are not welcome at any given place (if only for cameras and disruption, but also for deranged asshole followers). So the strategy is don't ask, just show up, and threaten if there's a problem. What a surprise.
Four Seasons Garden Center has entered the chat...
Washington is full of GOP operatives who have worked on political campaigns across the country. None of those people want to work with Trump because he doesn't pay.
This is just another long line of deliberate ignoring small businesses by JD Vance. This guy doesn't understand consent. What makes you think that Trump is going to care about your small business when his VP cannot call ahead and schedule campaign events with businesses?
I'm sorry sir, but I know about the court order that you're required to remain no less than 500 feet away from any upholstery.

Shit, I can only hope he comes to our restaurant.
