Mike Ferguson in the Morning
Mike, Stel, and Gabe discuss Trump giving Bud Light a 2nd chance on the eve of a fundraiser headed up by an Anheuser-Busch lobbyist. Do you agree with Trump asking us to forgive Bud Light when they’ve never said they’re sorry?
We discuss Matt Walsh’s response which includes his comment that “Trump gave no strategic reason why abandoning this one single effective boycott effort would be a good idea. We should back off because it would be the nice thing to do and it’s very important to be nice to foreign conglomerates who push transgenderism.” Matt says, “We managed to organize the first effective conservative boycott ever. Nobody has given any good reason why we should surrender now without an apology or concession. Anheuser-Busch isn’t even an American company. We would be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory for the sake of rescuing a foreign corporation from the consequences of its actions. Absolute madness.”
