Former President Donald Trump’s visit to Atlanta was marked by an outpouring of overwhelming support that certainly sent his critics over the edge.
One notable stop at a Chick-fil-A saw Trump buy milkshakes for customers and get a special message from a supporter.
“I don’t care what the media tells you, Mr. Trump. We support you,” one woman said at the Atlanta Chick-fil-A, prompting Trump to exclaim, “Let me give you a hug!”

In one video, posted by the Right Side Broadcasting Network, Trump was reminded that Chick-fil-A is a “great American franchise.”
“It is. It’s a great franchise. The owner is a great man who is a member of one of my clubs, and he’s fantastic,” Trump responded. “They do very well, and they’re closed on Sunday.”
He even agreed that “It’s the Lord’s chicken, you’re right,” adding, “It’s good chicken, too.”
