Republicans loudly protested the redesign...
Really? Republicans? No -- pretty much everybody.

Cracker Barrel is too mired in WOKE.
Blackrock owns a major stake in the chain. They’ll never back down.

The difference is Cracker Barrel’s business model is in big trouble. Sit down chain resstaurants serving real food are going extinct due to inflation and increased costs of business.

It took awhile, and CEO Roberto Goizueta (conservative Cuban, fo what its worth) drank it until his premature dying day.
In the case of Coca-Cola, they had to contend with some 500 pound gorillas. While Pepsi had been beating them in the supermarkets, Coke completely dominated restaurant (both chains and diners, etc.) fountains, leaving Pepsi with those brands they owned at the time (Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken).
I am sure McDonald's pushed back on New Coke. That was a big deal, especially then before so many smaller competitors popped up in droves.

In 1960 America I think the well established brands depended on a better advertising campaign to stir up product sales, they didn’t replace their well established brands, they just hired better advertising talent.

If anyone knows anything about branding, it is Trump.

Some Traditional PR firm should offer to re-brand gay nightclubs. You know, fill them up with MAGA hats and signs saying, "Perverts need to leave our children alone"... I'm sure the gay community would be happy with the makeover. It's time for successful companies to STOP hiring sexual weirdo Ad Agencies. Unless they want to go broke.

Exactly. Many of us are saying the same thing.

That is absolutely correct.

I’d LOVE to see them go back to normal.
I’ll be surprised if that happens...

Good sound, common-sense advice.
Will the female CEO admit a mistake?
Any bets?

This is some good advice from Trump. Cracker Barrel should listen and take advantage of a great idea. The focus is on them now, but time is limited.
Turn bad PR into really good PR.

President Trump has got that ridiculous looking CEO in a trick bag. Listen to President Trumps advice and she kneels to “patriarchy “ or whatever her malfunction is, disregard this advice and lead CB down bud lites path.

Except they didn’t bring back the old formula, they brought it back with high fructose corn syrup.
I had a friend that stock piled a huge amount of the old coke and you could easily tell the difference between the old coke and what they claimed was the old formula.
