Ex-GOP Rep Mocks MAGA’s Double Standards after Tesla Backlash
Daily Beast via Yahoo ^ | 3/21/25 | Leigh Kimmins

Posted on 03/24/2025 10:37:38 AM PDT by DallasBiff

Former GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger has accused MAGA of brazen hypocrisy over its fury at attacks on Tesla.

Kinzinger, who served as a representative for Illinois from 2011 to 2023 and is vehemently anti-Donald Trump, contrasted the fury at Tesla being boycotted and its cars being vandalized with how Budweiser’s work with transgender social media creator Dylan Mulvaney set conservatives alight with anger in 2023.

“So, here’s an interesting question. Why is it that whenever Republicans decide to boycott a company like Bud Light or Disney, they’re doing it because they’re victims of that company?” he said.

“Yet when America decides to boycott a company like Tesla, because the CEO is running around telling Americans what they can and can’t live without so he can have a tax break, then all of a sudden they’re victims again.”

Maybe he could tell us a few of the beer distributors that were shot or burned during that time?

His question answers itself.

“set conservatives alight with anger”

Not Bud Light distributors.

Uh, Adam, we didn’t set Bud Light delivery trucks on fire. We didn’t shoot out windows at Anheuser-Busch.

The left thinks that not purchasing a beer and torching a car dealership are equivalent.

Kinzinger is too dumb and too dishonest to notice the difference between boycotting a product and firebombing a business.

The equivalent would be going to Adams house and fire bombing his cars.

No, MAGA doesn’t agree with terrorizing Tesla owners or firebombing their cars even though they are on the opposite sides politically.

He’s getting the words “boycott” and “firebomb” mixed up.

Ummmmm...destroying personal property is a far cry from boycotting a product.

Once again Adam proves he hasn’t got a clue.

It’s not difficult to understand why he’s “former”.

that’s because lil Adam is a brain dead IDIOT..I have NO issue with commies boycotting Tesla, they can refuse to buy one, tell their friends not to buy one, or sell the ones they have, zero issue with that..but when you go and DESTROY other people’s property, have web sites showing where tesla owners live and threaten to firebomb their house, and firebombing tesla dealerships that is TERRORISM..I dont remember anyone on the right firebombing Bud Light trucks or Ralphs supermarkets I must have missed that one

IIRC, no Bud Light distributor was fire-bombed or shot at, and no Budweiser trucks were vandalized.

IOW, no damage was done to physical plant/property and one was physically harmed.

Kinzinger is a “victim” of his own stupidity and faulty ideology/logic!

He may have an orange jump suit and a small living space in his future!

Oh, yeah, Kinzinger, I remember all those Budweiser delivery trucks and warehouses that were firebombed by folks wearing MAGA hats. This guy’s TDS might be the most severe case in the entire USA.
