They should give people all white cups and a box of crayons and let everyone make up their own cup designs.

They have regular old coffee too.... I'm referring to the COFFEE. A frappacino is not coffee. It has espresso in it, but it is not coffee. Nothing "fufu" or "weird" about their regular coffee, and at 2.25ish bucks its really not overpriced. Their coffee is mediocre, but definitely better than DD and most other big coffee chains.

Good coffee comes from good local roasters in your town.

^Like these. These are examples of good coffee. Most cities have at least one good local roaster. DD, Peets, Breugers, etc. are trash. Just a step above gas station coffee. Starbucks is mediocre, a little bit better than DD and Peets.

Donald Trump is now part of the politically correct left. I love it.

Donald Trump does not care either. He was just running his mouth in what he hoped would resonate with some people. But he knows so little about those people that he actually kind of dropped trow on this one.

Somewhere there are people in an office chuckling over how easy it is to manipulate people.

BTW did you know that next year is the first time in 72 years that Halloween falls on Friday the 13th?

You sincerely believe that Donald Trump gives a tinker's damn about what color Starbuck's coffee cups are?

Too funny.

I'm a conservative and I give not a single damn about the cup Starbucks chose. I hardly see this is an issue, much less one to be outraged about.

He said that he will learn foreign policy "on the job" because he's friends with some "real smart guys"... so yeah, I certainly wouldn't put it past him. What's even more hilarious is people like you who think this is some big conspiracy theory and some board room full of men in suits sat down and said "Here seeee, we're gonna make up a fake outrage so people hate Jesus, seeeee. Heheheheheheeeeee." Is it the satanic Illuminati forcing Starbucks to change their cups and then manipulating the media to create a fake outrage about it so that the New World Order can overtake Jeebus and America?

I am fully aware that Trump probably brought up the whole boycott thing to appease his backwoods simpleton supporters that think he actually cares about them and not corporate America (who his real supporters and beneficiaries are). But did you not hear the cheers in the crowd when he said it? Do you know nobody in your life that supported Trump for saying it? I sure do (unfortunately). See, what is truly "too funny" is the denial of conservatives regarding this issue. It is hysterical that you simply cover your eyes and refuse to believe that there's a decent amount of Conservative Christians who actually are mad about this. Not all of course, but to say it is some made up issue that came out of thin air is hilarious.

Lol. I believe that as much as I believe his favorite book is the Bible.
