Conservatives organized a massively successful boycott of Bud Light after the company went woke.
Then all hell broke loose.
And Donald Trump’s response to the Bud Light boycott put jaws on the ground.
Bud Light lost six billion dollars in market cap after the Anheuser-Busch brewing company announced a sponsorship deal with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
Mulvaney is a biological male who wears women’s clothes and puts on an over-the-top performance of how Mulvaney thinks a young girl would act.
Anheuser-Busch forgot who its customer base was and conservatives immediately boycotted.
Music superstars like Travis Tritt and Kid Rock boosted the effort and Anheuser-Busch’s CEO quickly released a groveling statement begging for forgiveness for jumping on the left’s bandwagon of trying to force transgenderism on the country.
Donald Trump built his political brand on refusing to bow to the woke mob’s regime of political correctness.
But Trump was absent from the Bud Light boycott.
Conservatives assumed it would be natural for Trump to support working-class Americans standing up to a woke company trying to push the gender identity insanity on mainstream society.
Trump remained silent, which is unlike Trump who regularly offers his opinions and thoughts on a variety of subjects.
Donald Trump Jr. took tremendous heat for calling on conservatives to call off the Bud Light boycott.
Trump Jr.’s sole reason to defend Bud Light was the fact that Anheuser-Busch donated big money to the Republican Party.
“That’s literally unheard of in corporate America, where it’s really easy to go woke, where they do so constantly, where there’s a consequence of actually being a conservative,” Trump Jr. declared. “So 60-40 to the conservative side is kind of a big deal.”
“So here’s the deal. Anheuser-Busch totally s— the bed with this Dylan Mulvaney thing. I’m not, though, for destroying an American, an iconic company for something like this,” Trump Jr. continued.
In 2016 Donald Trump thrilled crowds by campaigning against establishment politicians funded by big-money special interests.
Trump’s call to drain the swamp proved to be one of his most potent messages.
During Trump’s time in office, he was often on the wrong end of woke corporations pushing the left’s agenda.
At one point during the 2017 Super Bowl a company called 84 Lumber aired a commercial attacking Trump for trying to keep illegal aliens out of the country.
Later that year Trump’s CEO council disbanded after the corporate media lied about Donald Trump calling white supremacists “very fine people.”
In the 2020 election countless companies — even the NFL — ran “get out the vote” ad campaigns that were subtle attempts to motivate Democrats to get out to the polls to vote Trump out of office.
Supporters were puzzled why Donald Trump refused to endorse the Bud Light boycott and why Donald Trump Jr. would defend a woke corporation because they were a major donor.
