Was she hired by one of the “Globalist Billionaires” to campaign against President Trump full time?

I think it MIGHT finally be sinking in with some companies that making political statements which offend half of your customers really doesn't constitute a smart business model.

Being a "politically-active company" whose business has absolutely nothing to do with politics just strikes me as stupid pandering.
