The National Republican Congressional Committee quietly deleted a fundraising page Saturday that took aim at one of their largest donors, the parent company of Bud Light, Anheuser-Busch.
The NRCC’s back peddling follows conservatives calling for a boycott of the beer company after they partnered with transgender TikTok personality Dylan Mulvaney.
On Saturday morning, the powerful committee that provides support to Republican congressional campaigns blasted out a tweet calling for supporters to donate to the NRCC and, in exchange, be given a custom drink koozie.
“Thanks to Dylan Mulvaney, we can all finally admit that Bud Light tastes like water,” the NRCC said in a since-deleted tweet that The Daily Beast reviewed and can be seen below. “With our new koozie’s, you can make sure no one confuses Bud Light with real beer ever again.”
But shortly after it was posted around 9:30 a.m., the tweet was taken down. Later on Saturday afternoon, the corresponding fundraising page was also nixed.

Follow the money. Gets you to root cause every time.
If true, shame on them.
I bet it is 2x or more than the general population, probably even higher.
Dem rhetoric notwithstanding, the GOP (including Trump) have been rather gay friendly since the early 2000s, with a few exceptions.
Probably explains Don Jr calling for Repubs not to boycott
or maybe the message was directed to Bud Light and not so much for the GOP
I didn’t drink it before. I don’t care what any politician says... even it’s someone on my side. I won’t drink it now.
Lite beer is for sissies.
Seems a little self defeating.
Apparently money buys silence.
If Don Jr. had political aspirations, he can kiss it off now. His stupidity will not be forgotten. As for his father, if asked about this issue he should STFu.
Bud Light is to beer as Dylan Mulvaney is to womanhood.
I don’t think rocket surgeon Lizzo has chimed in on this yet.
So the RNC and the Trump family want us to support the transgender cause because they are paid off?
I am on
Team “People Who Genuinely Share My Core Values”
not
Team “Funnel Cash To Any Shmuck Who Wears A Republican Label”
No. Make an example of them. Make every advertising exec wake up in a cold sweat fearful of what happens if they go woke.
Yeah, pretty much...
Standing on their principals.
[It is not the GOP doing this. It is the customer base. They are not doing it for political reasons. They are doing it because this Mulvaney character repels them and makes them want to buy another brand.]
AND THERE you have it... the reason they snuck a liberal in to sabotage the company.
Cigarette companies used to be major GOP donors. If cigarette companies were major democrat donors we would all be hearing about the healthful benefits of "bathing your lungs in cleansing smoke"
And there has been no more sure bet than "get woke go broke"
