Donald Trump Jr. says boycotts of Bud Light should end, telling his fans on Rumble the company’s conservative credentials are solid and the outrage over its partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney was unjustified.
Bud Light — and its parent company Anheuser-Busch — have faced a firestorm of controversy from many in their core audience after using Mulvaney in its marketing.
“We looked into the political giving and lobbying history of Anheuser-Busch. And guess what? They actually support Republicans,” said the former first son on Rumble.

I wasn’t an AB customer anyway. That said, I have no intention of every buying, or consuming, a product that features such a sad promotion of societal decay on one of it’s containers.
I would agree with you as long as those(s) you refer to are from the opposing side of my point of view.
“IBT Trumpies come to somehow twist this into a positive for Trump in 2024 and how this story is all just a DeSantis plot that will fail.”
If they don’t it’ll only be because they saw your comment and *might* be hesitant to do so on this thread. 950-D chess!
‘This right here folks, is why you should never fall for the cult of personality. Ever.’
this is sound advice, which has been given ever since cave men learned to talk and gave birth to politics...
and it has been ignored for just as long...
AB Boycott is an emotional response to the Global Homo Tranny effort pushed down Americans gullet. It is a symbol of getting back at “The Man” even if he wears a dress.
Trump Jr. comments are logical. Keep the beer money flowing into the conservative party coffers. But, he is wrong—the beer company needs to withdraw its fake woman’s face on their beer— Fire the nut case lady who oversaw that disgrace and replace the brand with a big horse—or some dude without a blemish all Americans love? Who that might be is anyone’s guess.
As well as given the effectiveness of the boycott, which has taken Anheuser-Busch by surprise.
They knew they're be a backlash but they weren't expecting it to be this bad.
Good job, Jr.! Way to chop us off at the knees!
How much Bud Light stock does he own?
Screw Bud Lite and their beer......Fire the CEO, Give Trump a million dollar campaign contribution and say in public...”We Screwed Up....Big Time””!!!. I will never will buy or drink another Bud Beer as long as I live, until Bud learns where it’s massive customer base resides!!! How dumb can their management be. I guess they have been listening to the likes Of failed , criminal, Democrat, Joe Biden and his America destroyers!!........Go figure!!!
“This new trend of FReepers going around typing “gaslighting” to a comment they don’t like is weird.”
I’ve seen it used in instances where it’s so non-applicable that I question whether some even know what it means.
That would explain it.
I don't want to take his comments out of context, and it seems like he may have had the intent to "inform" vs. actually promote a position
Nonetheless, even looking at it cynically, it was stupid to step in front of this tidal wave of conservative opinion while its peaking - and it was stupid it to link it to corporate political giving. Gives the impression he is highly cynical and only thinks about money.
“Republicans” and “people who stand for good values” are not synonymous.
“Deep State is ginning up yet another game of lets-you-and-him-fight.”
Did they fabricate this? Pay Don Jr. to say it? Don Jr’s secretly a deep state affiliate?
I hope his father doesn't try to bail him out of this.
They aren't hurting at all, yet, not in the two weeks since this affair began. Too soon for sales figures, nobody fired, and the CEO issued a non-apology and reminded everyone he's a military veteran (as if it mattered - lots of the guys I served with are jerks). He said how much they honored vets and first responders but it's a grotesque female impersonator who got the commemorative cans. This, the VP in charge says, will serve to sell more suds because Gen Z loves trannies. I don't think anyone is ready to change his or her mind on the topic just yet.
I’ve been boycotting Bud Light for decades. People actually drink that stuff? Ick.
PBR is less offensive.
Reach across the aisle....for a beer and hopefully some later favors. Politics.
Note Donald Trump, Joe Biden and Mitt Romney do not drink alcohol.
FBL
I unsubscribed after I got an email from Don Jr. telling me how personally disappointed his father is with me because I haven't coughed up any cash in a while.
