Why would he do this in swing state that he needs for his election? Goodyear is a major employer in Akron, employing 50,000 in the Akron/Canton area. Is he trying to lose Ohio?

Wow, didn’t notice that even All Lives Matter is banned.

It is still surprising how quickly the corporations fell for this Marxist dogma.

Only in Trumplandia would someone attempt making the inane comparison between wearing something at work and while in a protest march.

Trump involving himself in private companies yet again. When will they finally arrest this man and send him to jail.

Not sure that boycotting a large company headquartered in Akron, Ohio is politically smart less than three months from the election. If he loses Ohio or Florida, he’s dead.

And making an inane comparison between wearing something in a protest march and wearing the same thing at work is acceptable.

The workplace is the workplace not a protest site.

“Black Lives Matter” and “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Pride” were considered acceptable. Listed under the “unacceptable” section were “Blue Lives Matter,” “All Lives Matter,” “MAGA Attire” and “Political Affiliated Slogans or Material.”


“Black Lives Matter” and “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Pride”...are all political

Boycotts are stupid but when the democrats propose one the targeted company usually folds quickly.
I guess Trump thinks what is good for the goose is good for the gander but then again Conservatives are generally not that worked up on issues until they really hit home like trying to take away gun Rights or opening the door for perverts to go into the ladies room. Democrats on the other hand can get worked up and act like a army of ants intent on making a mess of something they deem offensive.



Case in point, when the CEO of Goya actually attended a WH ceremony and said positive things about Trump. There were calls to boycott Goya foods. I think the majority saw how stupid that was so it never took off.



Boycotts are dumb. I remember a time, not that long ago in America where people were individuals that spoke with their money by not going to a business that they did not appreciate but of course everything is so politicized these days that the MOB needs to make everyone PAY when they dare to step outside what is allowed such as going to the Trump WH.

Left can dish it out but can’t take their own MO when it boomerangs. Typical. These tactics were their original playbook so deal with it.
