We have a couple of them in the tri-state area.
I never see them look like they’re open, never see anyone moving around, inside or out and don’t know one single person who’s ever bought anything from that store.
Who, exactly, is their clientele?
All the local contractors use Lowes and Home Depot.

Who did Maggie sleep with to get this company? Her mother married (and slept with) the company's founder.

The “50% who supported them” are definitely nowhere to be found on their FB page, [cheery bloodbath that it currently is] which has a whopping 57,787 “likes” compared to Lowes and Home Depot, with their multiple million “likes”.
Good luck to 84 Lumber
It looks they 86ed themselves.

Seeing them trying to defend themselves, on Twitter, is hilarious.
We believe in the American dream....yammer, yammer, blah, blah.

There’s nothing the Left loves more than the Lumber Industry!
Good going CEOTARD!

“Or should we use it to air a pro-illegal alien lecture and alienate half of our potential customers?” Potential customers likely consist largely of blue collar workers who need jobs and vote conservatively. I'm hoping we will also be "voting" against 84 lumber policy with our wallets.

If I understand it correctly a 30 sec. ad during the SB cost 5 million dollars, and this was their first time buying an ad for it. Truth is I have never seen an ad for their company on TV before.
Just wondering if Soros might be involved in this somehow.

Since they pissed off half of their customer base, 84 Lumber has announced their new name:
42 Lumber

$15 million and they got the Sun on the wrong side of the wall.
To: jaydubya2
$15 million and they got the Sun on the wrong side of the wall. Good catch.
They wanted the effect of the sun shining where she was going, not where she was coming from.
A shining sun is typically used to evoke thoughts of a new dawn, a new day, a fresh start.
So they showed her self deporting!

Are the actors in this commercial illegal immigrants or union dues paying Americans?

Just what I was thinking. I don’t see a lot of liberals going to the lumberyard. The ones I know pay someone else to do their building and repair for them.
