On Sunday, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz told 60 Minutes’ Scott Pelley that he is seriously considering a run for president in 2020.

Not everyone was pleased.

Shortly after he took to the stage for a talk at a Barnes & Noble in Manhattan on Monday, Schultz was heckled.

“I am seriously considering running for president as a centrist independent,” Schultz said during the discussion, echoing his remarks on 60 Minutes. “And I wanted to clarify the word independent, which I view merely as a designation on the ballot.”...

Maybe the DNC should call for all democrats to boycott Starbucks. That’ll teach him to betray them.

“Of course he doesn’t believe in Borders, they went out of business years ago. That’s why he had to have the book signing at Barnes and Novels.”

Funniest reply I’ve read all day LOL. I like the cut of your jib 1FreAmerican!

How many people like a barista yelping some SJW BS at you after you purchased your coffee? That was Shultz and his “capital” mantra who ordered that.

Ironically, many of those protesting Schultz probably supported Bernie and then voted for Jill Stein to siphon off votes from Hillary. I’m curious who the protesters would support against Trump.

If you went and listed out twenty of his positions...I would suggest that only five would appeal to a conservative, and the rest mostly toward centralists or liberals. He wants more gun-control. He says he wants immigration control, but never defines how it’d change. He wants the deficit lessened but never says how it’d be accomplished. He’s against any corporate tax cuts.

This is the same leftard clown who singlehandedly destroyed Starbucks and handed all stores to drug addicts and loafers because 1 employee felt threatened by black dudes in the store called the police after some non-customers refused to vacate the premises, thus committing the misdemeanor of trespassing.

There, fixed it!

If Howard Shultz stay an Independent throughout, I may give Starbucks some business. Conservatives work and earn money.

Does Shultz want welfare customers or worker earners?

To All: I am mistaken. It was the Whole Foods guy who wrote the book about capitalism.

The Uniparty must preserve it’s duopoly at all costs. Look for a vicious attack on Schultz and Starbucks soon. The big guns will come out for him.
