Must be Karma - I had no idea of the Bean Family’s support for Trump until now.

I was traveling in another city on November 9th. I happened into an LL Bean store and bought 3 pairs of pants - after 20+ years of never having picked up their catalogue or ever considered buying their merchandise.

They make a great product - very good quality.

Just to make sure people know........ it was one of the family members (not all of them) who donated money to a pro-Trump PAC. It was not the company or other board members.

Linda Bean is the granddaughter of company founder L.L. Bean.

She and about fifty other descendants are on the board that owns the company.

Apparently, Linda Bean was on “Fox and Friends” the other day and mentioned that one of the board members donated a large sum of money to Obama in 2012 when he was running for re-election. No outcry from moonbat liberals back then, of course.

The “Bean Family” does not actually support Trump. One of LL Bean’s grandchildren, Linda Bean supported Trump. The company which is by about 50 of LL’s desendants has said they do not political postions and that no one owner speaks on thier behalf.

Knowing some of the family, I would say are to the left side though none I know are political like Linda is.

If Linda had been the daughter of LL’s daughter, this would be a non story.

It was the granddaughter of the company’s founder who donated to the Trump campaign, and the libs feel the entire campaign should fail because someone in the founder’s family donated. I wonder when they threaten people with death unless they are rude or try to hurt the president.
