He never wants to dis people who sign up with him to get favorable publicity via advertising. Shadenfreude is fun, but not worth endangering business relationships.
What type of relationship is there when at the first sign of manufactured outrage by the Left, his oldest advertiser ran for the door and slammed him?
In most circumstances, I'd agree with you.
But I think Sleep Train was just made an example of. A message to other advertisers, you might say.
Well, this is a business which is two way street. Did they complain when they were made public for withdrawing sponsorship last week? If a guy dumped a woman, it is the woman’s decision whether to take him back or not. She would consider her options and see if she can live without him. I’m sure Rush & Co know their financial strength to decline them back.

This maybe a message maybe to other advertisers...think very carefully before you jump.
