Donald Trump has U-turned on his stance over 'woke' Bud Light and suggested the beer deserves a 'second chance' just weeks ahead of a fundraiser organized by a lobbyist for the beer's parent company.
The presidential hopeful called for an end to the Bud Light boycott which was sparked by its disastrous campaign with trans-activist Dylan Mulvaney
The former president said the partnership was a 'mistake of epic proportions' for which a 'very big price was paid.'
But he insisted that parent company Anheuser-Busch InBev was not a 'woke company' as he threatened to release a list of those that are.
His comments came ahead of a fundraiser organized by a major Republican lobbyist for the company in March, where tickets are selling for $10,000 each. The event will be attended by dozens of members of Congress, Republican leaders as well as Donald Trump Jr.'
'Anheuser-Busch spends $700 Million a year with our GREAT Farmers, employ 65 thousand Americans, of which 1,500 are Veterans, and is a Founding Corporate Partner of Folds of Honor, which provides Scholarships for families of fallen Servicemen & Women,' he wrote on social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday.

Keep in mind, Anheuser-Busch has yet to apologize for the Bud Light fiasco.
Trump is WRONG. If Bud recovers they’ll go right back to the woke fecal matter. They’re down and the best time to kick an enemy is when they’re down. And I haven’t heard if the woke little girl VP Alicia Heinerschein has another job yet. I sincerely hope not. I hope the smug b**** ends up sleeping on the street.
Nah. He makes some good points. I’m ok with that.
But I’ll still never drink an InBev product again.
Maybe they are also buying a full set of his playing cards?
The mask has been coming off more and more on Trump this election cycle. He’s showing himself to be what he always was before 2016, a New York Liberal. More woke with each passing month. There’s your GOP nominee, folks. SAD.
Well I hope u check your tranny fluid in you cars
I figure this will be posted more than once.
This is just insane and Trump should have known better. Being a business man that he is sometimes there are no second chances and sometimes an entity fails.
Pick stupid spokespeople, win stupid prizes.
Trump dipping his toes in accepted anus sex by Inbev is not a good decision.
Follow the money!

rump’s message also comes as a top Republican lobbyist for the company is set to host a fundraiser for the former president next month, with some tickets going at $10,000 each.

CLOSE. SEE MY #31
You don't have to fight every battle Mr.President, sir. We've got this one.
” otherwise, there is no reason for Trump to bring this up.”
MONEY! See my #31.
Yes, Bud Light/AB should have known better as well. They shot themselves in the head by using Dylan.
Anyone who now stands up for Bud Light/AB will be tarnished.
Who can you trust, really? All people let others down in some way and time.
“Trump dipping his toes in accepted anus sex by Inbev is not a good decision.”
Yes and people need to go to X and tell Trump this!!
“Is that why Trump is suggesting the boycott stop?”
No. A big time lobbyist is throwing a $10,000 plate dinner for him.
Maybe you should run instead?
That beer company WAS a great American brand.
