Donald Trump has U-turned on his stance over 'woke' Bud Light and suggested the beer deserves a 'second chance' just weeks ahead of a fundraiser organized by a lobbyist for the beer's parent company.
The presidential hopeful called for an end to the Bud Light boycott which was sparked by its disastrous campaign with trans-activist Dylan Mulvaney
The former president said the partnership was a 'mistake of epic proportions' for which a 'very big price was paid.'
But he insisted that parent company Anheuser-Busch InBev was not a 'woke company' as he threatened to release a list of those that are.
His comments came ahead of a fundraiser organized by a major Republican lobbyist for the company in March, where tickets are selling for $10,000 each. The event will be attended by dozens of members of Congress, Republican leaders as well as Donald Trump Jr.'
'Anheuser-Busch spends $700 Million a year with our GREAT Farmers, employ 65 thousand Americans, of which 1,500 are Veterans, and is a Founding Corporate Partner of Folds of Honor, which provides Scholarships for families of fallen Servicemen & Women,' he wrote on social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday.

Anheuser-Busch InBev must have sent him a big donation to his legal fund.
He’s trying to get some tranny votes. He knows the base won’t go back to BL, and they’ll still vote for him.
Donald, stay out of fights and issues that won’t help you. Especially when you’re totally wrong.
I hope not the start of more self-inflicted injuries.
AB is just another brand in the InBev portfolio. Screw InBev.
This was a bad decision by Trump.
I have even less respect for Bud Light now and now my doubts about Trump.
Not good, so not good.
Like Disney, how much money is this worth? Or, is the real Donald Trump who was an early endorser of mentally ill men in woman’s pagents, just showing his real views again.
My guess is some Republican donors who have a large stock portfolio involving the Busch brand were whispering in Trumps ear to influence him on the matter, otherwise, there is no reason for Trump to bring this up.
Donald Trump doesn’t drink, as far as I’ve been informed. So he’s never swilled that gnat’s Pi$$.
I don’t think he wants ‘tranny’ votes. I think he’s first and foremost a businessman.
(Personally, I don’t know anyone who would drink Bud Light in the first place, when they could have Guinness; but that’s just me...)
Which is what I've been saying all along...you just can't trust the guy.
The CEO might be a conservative. Is that why Trump is suggesting the boycott stop?
Better to bring up A-B than to bring “up” Dylan
I would not go that far.
No 2nd chance from me.
He sold himself pretty cheap this time...
Isn’t it a Dutch company?
The problem is the people who get hurt the most are not the ones who made that decision. But I never buy Tranny Fluid anyway.

More likely that he’s talking before he’s thinking. Trump is the best hope for America. But too often he talks before he thinks. In that way, he’s much like General Patton.
And no, that’s not a good thing.
