Billionaire Home Depot co-founder shreds Trump haters in new Facebook post
Yahoo ^ | 7/10/19 | Brian Sozzi

Posted on 07/11/2019 5:21:00 AM PDT by Moonman62

“I woke up this morning thinking it was going to be another great day. I've been celebrating with friends, family and the community since I turned 90. I've told you about the gracious gift of $117 million that was collected and given in my honor to four charities that mean a lot to me. All that happiness blew up because I said in a newspaper interview that I have supported and will continue to support Donald Trump.

Boom!

Negative stories... vicious threats, without cause, to boycott the company that has enabled my foundation to give billions to support autism, medical research, education, heart and neurological issues like stroke, and to help our veterans. The company that I retired from in 2002 and have not had a business relationship with in almost 20 years. A company that has employed more than a half-million people. The people who work there are affiliated with both political parties or no party at all. They are of all religions and all colors and backgrounds. Why would people want to hurt them?

All because I give my voice and some of my money to our President. Am I in China? Argentina? Russia? That's what it feels like to me.

It saddens me that our country has come to this, where I, as a private citizen, cannot express my feelings. It angers me and it saddens me, but it sure as hell is not going to stop me. If you thought it would, you've got the wrong guy.

In the next ten years, God willing, I will accomplish more to save this world than my critics will do even if they had forty lifetimes.”

The left gain power with intimidation.

President Trump has shown that the left are powerless when you are not intimidated.

Awesome!

I read several comments at the Yahoo link.

They’re running at least 95% favorable.

Just think of how many illegal alien “day laborers” seeking work by standing in the area of the local Home Depot this is going to hurt. The retarded far left snowflakes screw the “little people” again. Joey Biden won’t have any of these day laborers to drink coffee with and “hang out with” every morning outside of the local Home Depot anymore. We’ll have to start calling him Lonesome Joe.

I just bought $10k of appliances and cabinets from HD. Well spent and on sale.

Aside from shooting liberal fascists who attack our homes and bodies, publicly ridiculing them is the best way to handle them.

These liberal fascists are actually shooting our cops, attacking conservatives with beatings in Portland , Oregon,
and giving safe harbor to MS-13 and other criminals.

These same liberal fascists think they can go to Tucker Carlson’s home in Washington and threaten him and his family with death?

Things will soon come to a head, and the Bernies of our country will allow us to run them out of office back into the gutter where they belong.

Libs boycotting Home Depot is like me boycotting Target, MSNBC and Starbucks . . . there’s no way to tell. It’s hard to boycott a place you never frequent in the first place!

Home Depot was one of the companies that threatened to leave GA if the Religious Liberty bill was passed in that state.

>>>Home Depot was one of the companies that threatened to leave GA if the Religious Liberty bill was passed in that state.<<<

One of the reasons why the store is referred to as “Homo Depot.”

I hope Home Depot “suffers” the way Chick-fil-A did when the gay lobby attacked them—people flocked to CfA and have made it part of the top three fast food chains in the country!

I doubt GA would fold to Home Depot. I think it’s an empty threat by HD to pacify the crazy left. Too much business for HD in GA and other red states.

The co-founder hasn’t had any part of HD in 20 years. Boycotting HD is a wasted effort. I’m not a huge fan of boycotts due to hurting good people that have nothing to do with the conflict.

Ten years ago I posted here that if we are to avoid CWII we have to devise a way to share the same space. Up until this time two inherently diametrically opposed ideologies cannot occupy the same public space but it occurred to me that it might be possible if we completely segregated into completely different cultures that had almost nothing to do with each other. If we had Rat money and Patriot money. Rat companies and Patriot companies. Rat communities and Patriot communities. Rat fashions and Patriot fashion. Laws that apply to Rats and laws that only apply to Patriots. Churches that were Rat and Churches that are Patriot.

Looks to me like what is happening with the exception of Patriot Media which the Rats will not allow.
