Walmart apologizes to Hawley after calling him a sore loser
Politico ^ | 12/30/2020 | Matthew Choi

Sen. Josh Hawley traded sharp words with Walmart’s corporate Twitter account on Wednesday over his contention of the 2020 election results, prompting the superstore giant to apologize to the Missouri Republican.

After announcing his intention to challenge President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory Wednesday, Walmart’s Twitter account responded, “Go ahead. Get your 2 hour debate. #soreloser,” in a since-deleted tweet. Hawley later shared a screenshot of the tweet, calling out Walmart for what he called “insulting condescension.”

James T. Harris, filling in for Chris Plante, said Hawley may be one of the individuals who can carry the Trump torch into the future.

That Walmart has unsupervised SJWs running its social media is disturbing. That it didn’t fire this SJW is telling.

It seemed obvious that this was one lone liberal idiot.

Was he fired or just given a free vacation?

Been listening to James T. Harris all week, he’s fantastic! A great choice to fill in for Chris Plante.

Walmart apologizes to Sen Hawley after he defends the majority of American voters against Walmart’s insults.
Actually

Sen Hawley shows the wimp party how it’s done.

Both. Right now the user had time off, unpaid. That’s going to be for about week.

The user claims they thought they were logged into their own account. They were logged in as Walmart of course.

I have seen the person nor know a name but it’s an Indian guy.

Walmart suddenly remembered that red states are their bread & butter, and the blue cities don’t even want to allow them to build any stores in the city limits?

Note to Wally World: People of color had their Trump votes switched or thrown out, too.

When you side with Deep State, you side with the people who really are screwing people of color.

You side with the people who really are disenfranchising minority voters.

It isn't obvious to me. My guess is that there are hordes of liberal idiots being hired in Walmart's social media department, their HR department, their executive offices. Sooner or later the liberal idiocy will reach critical mass and they will no longer bother to apologize - they will double down. Woke corporatism is another festering illness that Trump's presidency has exposed.

I made no claim about how many others may work there I just saw this as one individual posting something incredibly stupid.

And I remember thinking that this can’t be possibly be Walmart policy- Someone is about to get fired

To email Walmart CEO, send to: doug.mcmillon@wal-mart.com

Although, their response to me had the email of: Doug.McMillon@walmart.com

I know the first email address above got a response.

Walmart has no business in politics whatsoever! They should not be on twitter at all with political tweets.

Remember folks Walmart went all in on supporting BLM whole heartedly too and promoting the whole leftist anti-American line.
