I remember the first time I got a chance to visit one, these are not in my area. I was excited because people where claiming they had the best coffee, after paying too much, I couldn't even drink half my cup, it was the worst stuff I had tasted.
No one goes there for a cup of black coffee, not with dozens of blended coffee and tea drinks on the menu. If you don't like something you try after a few sips they will make you something else.
OP do you have a link? What did Starbucks do? Maybe corporate didn't do something official and you just had a barista at your local shop talk politics to you?
The CEO endorsed Clinton - google it if you want full details

Not a huge deal in my opinion, not enough of an excuse to avoid Starbucks if you are an anti Clinton person. It isn't like everyone knew Starbucks is liberal anyways. Headquartered in Seattle. Doesn't allow open carry in stores. Also I think they did something about not saying Happy Christmas, or something about Christmas awhile ago.
I enjoy sitting in your shops for hours on end sipping coffee and surfing the internet, i'd prefer to be sitting in a establishment that isn't creating controversy and having 'views' . just serve coffee and stay quiet. thanks.
Soooo...
Bunches of companies literally buy off politicians every single day, including contributing to campaign funding, but you have a problem with Starbucks?

The 'Christmas thing' was Trump trying to gin up a war against Starbucks, claiming they were part of a war on Christmas because Starbucks used a plain red cup last year. It blew up in his face because fans of Starbucks just stopped in more often over the holidays.

Lol....the nerve.
You guys only say this if a company you like is endorsing someone you DON'T like.
Everything is hyper political now. I don't see why Starbucks should be any different.

Ok.
That's random.
Believe me, if they were backing his candidate, this thread wouldn't exist.
Sorry, but right wing wackos said that corporations were people.
There will be no shutting up.
