Maybe he saw the impact of Going Woke on the company’s bottom line.

[DoughtyOne]

Not sure about the UofN, but this is good.

Hope it holds up.

[DoughtyOne]

One would hope. I hope he saw the Democrat party as a direct
threat to the nation as well.

[Chode]

welcome to the party pal, a lil late...

[WHATNEXT?]

Funded Johnson to defeat Kotek. When Drazan’s poll numbers rose above Johnson, so he backed the new possible winner. As he said, he just doesn’t want the Democrat to win again in Oregon.

I’m going to a BBQ being held for Drazan and other Republican candidates. No cost....I was surprised. I’m sure they will ask for donations at the event...but, NO Cost. Unusual, must be some of that Knight money being used.

Great! Therefore I do not have to stop my boycott of Nike.

[thinden]

If he saw the light, I’m in favor of it.

^^^^^^^^

Me too. Great news

This guy makes George Soros look like chump change! The only way to make more $$, apparently, is to divorce Jeff Bezos.

[nutmeg]

Yes! About damn time.

[DoughtyOne]

I understand your and agree with your views there. Thanks
for the background.

[EEGator]

They’ll go from 18 different uniforms to two.

[VAFreedom]

he’s right leaning but i’m surprised no one posted before when he donated to gop in the past.

and the funny thing is people keep buying nike shoes. as well as kanye west’s shoes.

I tried finding that cartoon. I couldn’t.

But I did find this: https://www.facebook.com/teamcoco/videos/psa-dont-use-plastic-straws-to-snort-cocaine/1676522242654722/

Times are so weird that it’s surreal.

⬆️⬆️⬆️

[kosciusko51]

It seems like a lot more than 18...

[Newbomb Turk]

Sure Nike is a woke company. But when the reality of wokeness finally hits your neighborhood, you’re opinion might change.

[Dan in Wichita]

Please report back here how the BBQ went. I imagine the enthusiasm level is rising.

[Zhang Fei]

[It’s affecting his business.]

This is likely true. Theft is skyrocketing and sneaker stores are closing left and right.

Nike inventory is up 44%.

[DoughtyOne]

I’d imagine so.
