Trump Weighs in on MAGA’s Latest Online Crisis: The Cracker Barrel Logo

The declining restaurant chain Cracker Barrel recently made the unfortunate decision to rebrand its sign, which—if you’ve ever hung out at a strip mall on the side of a freeway—you will probably recognize. The old sign, which we are now being told is “iconic,” previously featured a mascot known as “Uncle Herschel” (based on the store’s founder’s real uncle) and a barrel. The new sign, a study in bland minimalism, nixes both the barrel and Uncle Herschel, replacing them with a vaguely rounded and
