Just because it caused a lot of criticism doesn't mean it was illegal.
If the Starbucks manager had overtly indicated that they were being kicked out due to their race, gender, or national origin (or other protected classes depending on the state), that would be illegal. But political affiliation is not a protected class for businesses open to the public in any state.

That seems like an easy way around racial discrimination when almost all blacks are Democrats.

Or do different laws apply to Dems vs. Pubs?

It's not easy though because most people don't declare their affiliation to a store manager or cashier.
Besides any retail manager has a legal right to kick you out without giving a reason. If they give no reason at all, they will never get in trouble with the law. they just might get in trouble with boycotts if people think they have bad motives. But if the retail manager indicates why he or she wants to kick you out, and the reason is one of the bad reasons, in other words it has to do with your membership in a protected class, then the manager is in big trouble.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
