Would love to watch that stock drop like a rock.

Nike might want the stock to drop like a rock. It then repurchases a crap load of stock at a discount. Can krappernick, apologize for getting political and in a couple years, the stock is right back where it was, maybe more. Corporate execs get a windfall.

They can’t claim to be ignorant. They are negligent as a duty sworn officer of the corporation. That is 3 billion that should come out of their own personal pockets

NiKe is now in a bad way . Either they drop Mr Afro,and face boycotts from the Leftist movement of they double down and get completely hammered. Chances are they hope America forgets about this and life goes on.

With the mid-terms approaching, reporters with balls should ask candidates “Do you wear Nike’s?”

reporters will ask what soros, klinton, obama and the other deep staters have scripted for them...nothing more...nothing less....that will never be asked...way too probing and way too much voter useful information!
