Donald Trump Jr. has opened up on the controversy involving Kid Rock.
The popular beer brand, Bud Light under the Anheuser-Busch umbrella has been taking serious heat ever since it collaborated with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney – a biological male.
Mulvaney, who seems to enjoy mocking womanhood with constant tired jokes about female stereotypes, was sent customized cans from Bud Light featuring her face to celebrate a year since claiming to now be a woman. The company later defended the decision, and Kid Rock had enough.
Howard Stern is not sure why Kid Rock wasn’t pleased with Bud Light partnering with Dylan Mulvaney. Rosie O’Donnell also opened up on the matter.
Donald Trump Jr. comments on the matter
Donald Trump Jr. has called for an end to the boycott of Bud Light for their partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney in a video posted on his Rumble channel. During his message, Trump Jr emphasized the brewer’s conservative credentials and said it was wrong to ”blame the whole company for the inaction or the stupidity of someone in a marketing campaign that got woke as hell.”
Trump Jr said he had researched Anheuser-Busch and saw they mainly donated to Republicans, and said his fellow conservatives sometimes had ‘the tendency of — shooting first and aiming second.’
In the video, the former president’s son pointed to Anheuser-Busch’s supporting of Republicans including Ohio Senator JD Vance and Rep. Kevin McCarthy.
Trump Jr. said that the decision to partner with Mulvaney was reportedly made by a low-level marketing employee, rather than the senior executives.
”We looked into the political giving and lobbying history of Anheuser-Busch. And guess what? They actually support Republicans,” said Trump Jr.
”Last cycle their employees and their PAC gave about 60 percent to Republicans and 40 percent to Democrats. That’s literally almost unheard of in corporate America, where it’s really easy to go woke, where they do so constantly, where there’s a consequence to actually being a conservative. So 60 / 40 to the conservative side is kind of a big deal.”
”On the lobbying front, we looked into the bills that Anheuser-Busch was working on,” he said.
”You know what they’re focused on, guys? They’ve focused on taxes and trade things that actually impact their business. They haven’t done any lobbying for like the random pet issues of the day and the nonsense and the BLM crap — I didn’t find that — they focused on the things that affect their job.”
