President Donald Trump lashed out at automotive giant Goodyear after the company reportedly announced a “zero tolerance” policy for MAGA gear.

“Don’t buy GOODYEAR TIRES – They announced a BAN ON MAGA HATS. Get better tires for far less! (This is what the Radical Left Democrats do. Two can play the same game, and we have to start playing it now!),” Trump tweeted Wednesday morning.

The president was responding to reports that circulated after a leaked training slide showed Goodyear’s “zero tolerance policy” — which apparently applied to any show of support for Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter or President Trump’s “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) slogan.

According to that same policy, support for LGBTQ issues and the Black Lives Matter movement were reportedly acceptable in the workplace.

I’m hanging a Whites Not Welcome sign on the GoodYear shop by my house later tonight. I know the guys that work their didn’t do anything, but until their corporate office apologizes to caucasian-americans, it will continue.

I like to buy American, but I stopped using Goodyear a long time ago. The Goodyear tires I have had (all OEM on vehicles I bought) were generally noisy, handled poorly and wore out well before their designated tread life rating.

I once owned a Plymouth TC3 - sporty version of the Horizon. It was an utter piece of crap. One of the reasons was the Goodyear tires - it handled and rode like a water bed on wheels. A guy I worked with told me it would be much better with better tires - anything but Goodyear. I never found out - I got rid of the crappy thing rather than try to improve it.

I’ve given up on the ‘white lettering’ option- you never know what the dame fools will do next, so I won’t prominently display any corporate advertising anymore (with notable exceptions for known good guys)
