Governor candidate says he's banned from all Waffle Houses in Florida

James Fishback, who is running for Florida governor, said Waffle House banned him from every location in the state.

A Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate has taken his grievances to social media, claiming that Waffle House has banned him from its locations across the state.

James Fishback, who is running to succeed fellow Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis as the next governor, said that the restaurant chain criminally trespassed on him and his team from all of its locations in Florida after he told his followers on the "Tucker Carlson Show" in January that he'd be touring every Waffle House across the state to speak to voters.

At the time of his announcement, Fishback, 31, said Waffle House allowed him to do just that.

However, on March 4, Waffle House "abruptly revoked our permission," Fishback said, adding, "I am disappointed in Waffle House's decision, especially since they had given us explicit permission to visit their restaurants just 3 weeks ago."

Before Waffle House's decision, Fishback had visited locations in Madison, St. Pete, Bonifay, Marianna and Jacksonville.
