Does Michael Moore see himself as so important that he can direct others to do his bidding.
Moore isn't even elected and had no real mandare, indeed his views are no more important than the next persons.
Peole accuse Trumpm of being narcissistic, however if you look at the Hollywood and liberal elite they are even more narcissistic, and believe we hang on their every word.

America's next big coffee chain is going to be Costa Coffee which was recently bought by Coca-Cola for $5.1 Billion (£3.9 Billion) who have big ambitions for the chain including expanding to the US and other countries. Coca Cola have also bought a number of other chains, as they look to get in to the coffee market in a big way.
Costa has around 2,000 outlets in the UK compared to Starbucks 800, and Cost is the the largest coffee chain in Europe and the second largest in the world after Starbucks. Costa already operates in 32 countries and is now heading to the US.
So I think Starbucks has other more important things to worry about than Michael Moore.
“None of us should go to Starbucks until he (ex-Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz) announces he’s not running.”
1) You don't explain why you think this is a good\valid tactic to take.
2) Trying to financially attack someone, plus everyone from 401k holders to pension funds in order to keep people from choosing between them and other candidates is anti-democratic.
LOL it will be fun to see the snowflake meltdown from Schultz.
As I mentioned before, what I'm seeing is that since he has many qualities that could appeal to Republicans as well, he might cause an issue with Trump's run for a second term.
Moore brings that upon himself.He has made a career of insulting white males who are center to right, and not just a little. What he has insinuated and outright said is even lower than calling him a tube of lard.
His whole rhetoric about white Americans being afraid of brown skinned peoples. Hey I dont know a white gun owner that would give a fellow white guy a free pass if he caught him breaking in his house. His movies have 1 theme. White males are bad.
He attacks greed and ignorance. He exposes the lies of both major political parties with regard to issues that affect us all. He doesn't insult people for superficial reasons. Yet most people who attack him are just slinging fat jokes.
Michael Moore is sometimes right and sometimes 100% radical. He sounds worried about Howard Schultz. Starbucks coffee isn't all that great but their teavana iced tea is pretty good. This boycott idea is lame, let the people decide for themselves who they support.
Let the people decide. Absolutely. Some people will decide to boycott Starbucks. Boycotts happen. It is a form of peaceful protest.
