A waste of taxpayer money

President Donald Trump said that he would “swap out” Goodyear tires from his presidential limousine nicknamed “The Beast” after earlier calling for the company to be boycotted.
“On the Goodyear issue, you ride on Goodyear tires in the presidential limousine. If there were an alternative, you want those tires swapped out?” asked Fox News White House correspondent John Roberts during a Wednesday press conference.
Trump responded, “Yeah, I would do that. I would swap them out based on what I heard. We’ll see what happens. Look. you’re going to have lot of people not wanting to buy that product anymore. They’ll buy it from a competitor — made in the USA, too.”

A waste of taxpayer money
“I can’t spare this man! He fights!”
LOVE! :)
“You really think that the Trumpster is going to wait till the tires on the Beast have worn down?’
Yep sadly there are some less than deep thinkers on this thread. Worring about $3000 when we are in the early throws of a Civil war.
There you go, when you can’t disagree with the message throw shade at the messenger. Pretty typical these days at FR newbie.
Go ahead take the last word of calumny and invective.
ALL Politics are local.
FU, Goodyear! I love my President! :)
Wrong, this company needs to be held accountable for its political and racial bias. Employees can change the company from the inside (note an employee shared the info) or quit and work elsewhere. Shareholders can allow or change, even sell their stock. No sympathy.
“Clarify” their position. As I told my wife today driving in the car, listening to El Rushbo describe the situation: Their original demands and forbiddings revealed what’s in their hearts. Any mealy-mouthed alibi they concoct now in an attempt to stave off losses as the public learns of it, will merely show them for the scheming America haters they ARE.
maybe it’s time to put the gov tire contract up for auction when the time comes...assuming anyone else can meet the requirements

Hardly a newbie! Been here since ‘04. Name change. I must be over the target! <—DU.
Goodyear goofed? What an understatement.
Goodyear clearly supports terrorist, Communist, anarchist and sexual deviates, but not the cops or wearing a hat that supports America? I hope that company goes bankrupt bellyup!
I think a Gold trim around the stamp would be beautiful =)
I’ll meet you outside the nearest Goodyear shop with my sign. Let’s have a “peaceful protest”.
Trump Says Goodyear Tires Will Be Removed From Presidential Limousine, Doubles Down On Boycott
I wish there was a way get my instant laugh here
That’s hilarious!!!
That would make a great campaign fund raiser. Make up the stamps by his campaign organization to sell just like bumper stickers.
A statement is being made. You have a problem with that? Tax dollars being wasted? Let’s make a list of that... This move is worth it
Before this goes off the rails,
Thank you for your your service! Welcome home!
I’m perfectly fine with Yokohamas, unless they turn out to be made in China with a Japanese brand name.
Yep. Just dump the slogans all together, not just allow only certain slogans.
It’s is funny. Goodyear obviously didn’t get the message. It’s America first, not Communist, deviates and anarchist first. How stupid are they?
This company deserves to die a quick death.
Love it
