Nike has freely chosen their lane, I'll choose mine. I will continue wearing New Balance. My children will not wear Nike shoes unless they buy them with their own money. And that's going to be a long time.

This being said, don't delude yourselves. There's a lot of money to be made right now in trashing America.

two points: 1) Two weeks ago Niek stock formed a double bottom and increased 3% prieor to this latest publicity announcement. see comments below why this withdrawal of Betsy Ross shoes was not an accident.Earnings, not short term sales drives Nike, and they have been steadily increasing their return on equity and their stock price was $5 a share in 2000. oddly no liberals questin Nike on their use of sweatshops to make their shoes.

2) US sales are not a majority of their sales but their US sales are branded on what they call “ athletic dominance, and rejecting the status quo” Starting with Michael Jordan and then signing/moving primarily with other black athletes they pride themselves on sticking it to the man. If you wanted to show edge on and off the court, you wore Nike, especially with inner city youth -who spend a huge % of their income on these shoes.

I won’t buy Nike (hey they are inferior shoes too) but make no mistake this is deliberate and their are a lot of people in our country who don’t love our country.
