Trump supporters can legally be kicked out of bars, NYC judge rules

No, because they clearly aren’t the same thing. “Trumpism” isn’t an official recognized religion, for one thing. Protecting people from being attacked or excluded from public life or equal protection under the law for, say, being Jewish or Muslim or Neo-pagan or atheist or a satanist, isn’t the same thing as this guy getting kicked out of a restaurant for treating the staff like shit and then trying to claim that his support of a political candidate prohibits the restaurant from kicking him out BECAUSE it’s his religion is not the same thing. If you can’t see the difference, then I’m not sure what else to say here.

And religious practices which violate the law are generally not protected - such as the case with FGM (likely because it’s not a necessary part of a particular religion in the same way that circumcision of boys is).
