Wouldn't Trump supporters say this is a good thing? That if he doesn't want to do business with a certain group, i.e. Trump supporters, he shouldn't have to? That being said, I think this is happening already, it's just that not everyone is doing it in such a public way. As rude as I believe Carlson was to him, he held his position with no apologies and he is correct, he is within his legal rights to do so.

This man is correct, he is within his legal rights.
I didn't vote or support Trump, but I believe he has every right to do what he's doing.
I don't know why people have such a problem understanding being in the business of selling to the general public.
The man owns a marketing company. He does NOT sell to or service the "general public." He can choose to work for whoever he wants to work for, much like you can work for any company you want.
A marketing agency handles the marketing of a company or individual, getting its name out there to be seen by the public. The agency is free to choose any company or individual it wants to do marketing for. It's not selling TO the public. It's become a contract worker of sorts FOR a company or individual.
I would think an agency could decline to work for a company whose image it doesn't think jives with the agency's reputation or image.
See the difference?
However, if the man decided to sell dougnuts and set up a shop in a strip mall where he sells dougnuts to the general public walking by, he cannot pick and choose who among those people passing by he thinks are good enough to by his doughnuts. They are all members of the public and must not be discriminated against, for obvious reasons.
Similar to the marketing agency, a modeling agency can decline to represent someone that it thinks is inconsistent with that agency's image. For example, a modeling agency can decline to represent a beautiful model whose style is a ring in the nose, pink hair, and 10 pounds over weight of other models. She may already even be a successful model. But the modeling agency may historically have an image of representing conservative Chanel-type models for selling to the over-40 crowd. So that modeling agency is able to legally choose who it will represent. It is not selling to the general public.
