A tweet that lists "companies supporting Trump's re-election" went viral on Thursday, causing chatter among the anti-President Donald Trump crowd on the internet.

The list includes fast food stalwarts such as McDonald's, Wendy's, In-N-Out and Chick-fil-A, as well as chain restaurants like Olive Garden.

The call to shun restaurants came after talk of a mass boycott of SoulCycle and Equinox after it was revealed their owner, billionaire Stephen Ross, was hosting a fundraising event for Trump on Friday.

They SPIT in your food!

That is why I dine out in a very small number of local places where I know the owners. Besides, most of the time my food is better.

What most people don’t realize is that most big corporation, e.g. McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Taco Bell, KFC, etc., make large donations to both political parties and both presidential candidates. It’s been that way for decades.

How queer, the Leftist press is calling for boycotts and blacklists. Again.

F’ing Commies who are still butthurt that it ever happened to them.

Doesn’t sound like Newsweak is upset that it is happening. It was only “un-American” to do this 50 years ago.

I think we should buy Trump bumper stickers and put them on dem cars. It’ll be hard for them to get them off and at least waste their time.

That’s the problem. These LIBTARDS don’t want support going to the two parties. It’s either all them or hell to pay

I cook my own food, and I don’t SPIT IN IT, even though it is for white people to eat.

After my haircut this afternoon I stopped at a little locally owned speciality market where a guy was doing Texas style beef bbq sandwiches. I brought one home for myself, the hubby will have pasta. Can’t wait!

Food Companies don’t want $15 minimum wages. Most executives don’t like the idea of laying off employees even if automation causes fewer headaches.

I’m surprised that “Whataburger!” didn’t make the list.

Some of these companies are actually controlled by China at this point.

I read the article although I was loathe to visit the site. Laughed my ass off at the tweets.

Anyone have a good source for canned ham and lima beans?

democrats have invented a new form of pressure, political shaming. Hoping to shut down or bring violence to the opposition.

Remember the term The Resistance, which they lined up for when Trump was elected. Well, The Resistance is in full bloom.
