California Deli Owner Slammed As 'Racist' For Offering A 'Send Her Back' Special

California Deli Owner Slammed As 'Racist' For Offering A 'Send Her Back' Special

President Donald Trump disturbed Americans across the country as he basked in supporters' chants of "Send her back!" at a recent North Carolina rally.

The chants were in reference to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN), whom the President suggested should "go back" to her country—along with three other Democratic congresswomen of color—earlier in the week.


The tweets and subsequent chants were widely decried as racist. Trump even took the rare step of temporarily distancing himself from the sentiments of his raucous supporters (albeit with a lie).

Now, a Clayton, California deli is under fire for promoting a special glorifying the racist attack.

Canesa's Brooklyn Heros offered a free side dish to accompany the sandwich of any customer who said, "Send her back" while placing an order.

Owner John Canesa posted about the special on Facebook.

The post has since been deleted, but people are still sounding off.



Clayton, California Mayor Tuija Catalano eventually spoke out against the special as well.

But in case the outrage is giving you faith in Americans, take it with a grain of salt.

Not only did people show up to support the restaurant, but Canesa's sold out of sandwiches that day.

The support was virtual as well.

While racism may be lucrative for Canesa's Brooklyn Heros at the moment, their perpetuation of it is anything but heroic.

Trump Gives Mind-Numbing Reason For Why He Voted By Mail-In Ballot After Railing Against It

Although he regularly claims mail-in ballots are used by Democrats to rig elections, President Donald Trump was called out for voting by mail in Florida's election on Tuesday—and saying it's okay that he did it because he's the "president."

Palm Beach County records show that Trump cast a mail-in ballot earlier this week in the special election for Florida’s House District 87, the district that includes his Mar-a-Lago residence. He also voted by mail in the January primary for the same race.
