“How do you sleep at night?” Griffin asked Gidley as he walked by her table.
“Very well, thank you,” Gidley responded.
Griffin pushed back and Gidley asked, “Are we really going to do this?”
“Yes we are, suck my dick! No, really, suck my dick!” Griffin said.
The two went back and forth as witnesses watched. Then, Gidley, holding a Tecate beer, said he was walking away to enjoy his drink “before we build the wall and you can’t get these anymore.”
Griffin yelled “fuck you” as he departed.
Gidley did not respond to a request for comment.
