The recent (last couple of years) spate of leftist attacks on Trump administration officials, Republican politicians, and even simple Trump supporters has been troubling to observe. Sadly, while we hoped the anger would subside as we moved further away from the election, the reality is that the exact opposite has occurred. Today, conservatives are more endangered than ever before as many on the left have embraced an political strategy of all-out war on anything from the right.
The latest example of this sad state of affairs comes to us from a wonderful coffee company in Georgia.
Thrasher Coffee produces some of the finest coffee products in the nation and theyve recently embraced their conservative roots. The decision to honestly market their products and to choose to support President Trump, has caused some backlash on social media.
Leftist trolls have descended on to Thrashers pages and written lies about a product that theyve never even tried.
Heres the story from Thrasher Coffees Facebook Page:
Dear Coffee Lovers,
I hope you had a Happy 4th! We sure did, and WOW! so many new fans. Thank you so much! Thrasher Coffee has existed for almost 5 years now. As any small business it has been an uphill, in the mud battle. Recently, we embraced our conservative background and the groundswell has been incredible. The silent majority stand with Trump and we are breaking sales record after sales record. So much winning! However, there has definitely been lots of backlash and sadly we had to disable the reviews on our Facebook due to very negative reviews from people who have never even tried our coffee before. We were at a solid 4.9 with so many wonderful people leaving kind comments, and as soon as we started putting Trump on the bag the negative reviews, comments and messages poured in. They were nasty to say the least!
On the flip side, Ive also had some very nice conversations with customers who loved the beans, but couldnt back our support of Trump. As Americans we can disagree, be passionate about our beliefs, but still treat each other with respect. So to the new fans, welcome! Thank you, thank you! To the old fans, thanks for sticking with us all these years! Together we will make America great again, one cup of coffee at a time.
We hate to see this happen to anyone based on their political beliefs, particularly when their products are so darn delicious!
But there is a way that you can help the folks at Thrasher, you can surf over to their site and try some of their fantastic products like their #45 Blend, or their Best Part of Waking Up Coffee.
My personal favorite from their line of great coffee is the Liberty Blend, but you can see more of what they have to offer (including apparel) at their website.

Please consider supporting a conservative business as it faces down attacks from the leftist Anti-Trump mob.
“Sadly, while we hoped the anger would subside as we moved further away from the election, the reality is that the exact opposite has occurred.”
It takes a peculiar form of idiocy to expect or even hope for anything rational or reasonable from the left.
The owner will be thanking the leftist idiots for the Chick-fil-A effect.
Every time these idiots run their mouth the exact opposite happens...
BUMP
Bingo! I’m thinking I need to try some of their coffee.
“The Best Part of Waking Up is Donald Trump is President.
Very nice.
Hope, not idiocy. It is pretty plain that this will heat up to dangerous levels. I’ll be sure to vote for Trump the second time, so we can get this all out in the open and deal with it.
I’m going to try some of their coffee.
We need a civil rights law amendment to prohibit discrimination against one’s political beliefs unless it is based on religious freedom. Otherwise we need to protest leftist outfits like “ progressive:” insurance and starbucks and I dont mean just a little bit.
“Leftist trolls have descended on to Thrashers pages and written lies about a product that theyve never even tried.”
Only low life scum would post a negative hateful review of a business they have never used.
It is simply bullying, on a national scale. The only way to get a bully to stop is to show them, in clear terms, that their bullying will not bring them the feedback that they are seeking, and that this target is no longer going to sanction their own victimhood.
When it is large-scale like this, it will take something more than a beat-down of a few of their disposable mindless pawns, as happened in Portland recently. It will need to shake the ones holding the strings, not their dancing puppets.
It’s time for a BUYCOTT!!!
Why can’t this company just sell coffee and stay out of the political arena.
I bought the variety pack.
“We need a civil rights law amendment to prohibit discrimination against ones political beliefs...”
Wonderful idea!
Write your congressman and demand they propose a law that prohibits negative reviews and boycotts of of patriotic businesses.
I agree on the Trump vote, but disagree on expecting leftists to be anything other than violent loudmouths is idiocy.
We’eve got decades of experience with no exceptions on behalf of the left and it’s malicious, mendacious, degenerate and violent behavior.
To expect them to be anything other than what they’ve proven themselves to be, over and over ad nausea, is a gross incompetence.
Trump won’t be president forever. With all the hell being dished out toward Trump and his supporters, the left better be ready for the same treatment when the next dim gets in the Oval Office. Fair is fair.
Ive been in need of more beans. Just placed an order for the Trump coffee pack. Thank you.
