Michael Moore calls for Starbucks boycott until Howard Schultz says he’s not running for president
Fox News ^ | 2/01/19 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore is putting pressure on former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz as the billionaire mulls a possible run for president.

Schultz has ruffled feathers among Democrats after he announced that he was seriously considering an independent run in 2020, which many critics believe will aid President Donald Trump’s reelection.

Appearing on “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Moore expressed his disdain for Schultz, mocking the potential candidate for describing himself as a “self-made billionaire."

“Right away by admitting that you had subsidized public housing paid for by the tax dollars of the American people, you aren’t self-made. You got a hand-up from us like we wanted it,” Moore said of Schultz growing up in project housing in New York. “We want to help our fellow Americans. It’s a form of socialism, public housing, and yet he’s saying, ‘I’m all self-made.’ He went to public university, he went to Northern Michigan University actually, and you know, again, financed by taxpayer’s dollars. And he sells coffee, which is essentially water using city water systems, municipal water systems… You got to be a billionaire because we’re paying for the water!”

I believe Mikey gets to vote three times because he's that big. Popular? Famous? No, just big.

See now I stopped supporting them when they pushed for homo
Marriage on the floor of congress and then many more stopped after their social justice crap and then even more after their America’s bathroom debacle and I’m just not sure will there be anyone left at this point?

I go to Peets . Which has had to wisdom to avoid all this evil and stupidity. They just sell coffee.

He seems like a Dunkin Donuts kind of guy to me

When you buy an entire rack of donuts at Dunkin Donuts, they call that a Micheal Moore

Someone should clue in the slob that users pay for “city water” through either taxes, billings based on consumption, tap fees or a combination of all.

I heard that a contestant on the old extreme stunt TV show Jackass was seriously injured with his choice of a stunt.

He stationed himself between Michael Moore and a full buffet table. Grisly.

Michael, who died and left you in charge of determining who gets to run for political office?

Maybe I'll poster your picture at Starbucks with the caption 'banned'.
