Stay out of it, Jr.
Wonder how much A-B stock Don Jr. owns. It’s always been about the money.
Over the last twenty years one thing that so many Republican candidates have consistently overlooked is the window Free Republic offers into what is actually on the minds of every day grass roots conservatives.
During my time as a consultant I always read the responses in posts like this to get a good idea of what grassroots conservatives were thinking on a given subject.
The responses here ought to be seen as a nearly perfect reflection of the average hard core conservative’s view on the Bud Light boycott and the stupid unforced error by junior.
All of these responses are spontaneous and unsolicited.
Of the first 100 at least 90 were clearly in favor of the boycott and angry at junior for his smug edict; and worse still the REASON for his smug edict.
Let this be a lesson to smart Republican candidates: open an account at Free Republic and post your ideas here first.
Unfortunately, the too smart by half candidates that think they have to spend a ton of money to have a “Top Flight” pollster find out what grass roots conservatives think, are the wide majority.
Smart conservative candidates ought to read Free Republic every day to gain their edge.
There are times when not talking is the best response. Junior should have just STFU.
Hey, Don... just NO.
So has Budweiser fired the inept woman who launched this stupid marketing campaign yet?
If not, Don Jr's argument is as weak as the beer that Budweiser brews.
This guy is just your basic whore all around.
I understand what the Trumps are trying to do. They are speaking up for a company that has really been supportive of conservatives in the past. That’s acceptable. I understand the owners have apologized, and said they were wrong. That’s a good thing. Everybody makes mistakes, and they deserve to be able to correct and move on. Consequences exist, and sometimes those consequences are uncontrollable by any one person.
I have stated that I believed that what has been done will destroy bud light, and probably Budweiser itself. That market and market share is now gone. The jokes, the association with transgender, will only continue. The made a catastrophic mistake, and they should now prepare the company to move on quickly to other products.
They may eventually recover to the same pre-market stock value or even sales, with the amount of inflation it might only take 3-4 years, but they will be hollow numbers that don’t result in anything near the profit they had.
I doubt anyone from AB is reading this, but they should start concentrating to gobble up the FRAT beer market with another label before competitors take it all away forever. Shock Top probably the best alternative. Rest in peace now Bud Light, killed by first political commercial I know of.
It doesn’t matter how much money Organized Faggotry donates to Republicans. Maybe Donnie ought to stick up for what’s RIGHT instead of defending whatever happens to be financially expedient. If The National Groomers (er, I mean Teachers) Union starting donating to GOP politicians, would their crimes then suddenly be OK as well?
I’d expect this kind of lame drivel from Ronna McRomney, whose ONLY job (besides supporting RINOs and backstabbing conservative candidates) is trying to rake in $$$$ from any source no matter how reprehensible, and I DON’T expect to hear this crap from someone who claims to be a conservative.
Sounds like Jr has jumped the shark.
Money over principle, ehh junior????
Maybe… THAT is a big part of how this nation got itself into such a mess, huh?..
Any other time they would not want to be seen within a mile of a Trump.
I wonder how the Trump embrace feels for that low-level employee that manages the Bud brand. She probably hopes it can save her job and her reputation as marketing genius.
Transsexuals are just homos playing dress up.
Okay, so Junior would bend over and take a gerbil up the gumper for money. The only question is for how much? A million dollars? A thousand dollars? $4.29 and a happy meal?
WTF?
Well, Jr, if you’re up for tranny fluid, go for it.
