Gov. Ron DeSantis is telling South Carolina supporters that a popular beer company is trying to push “transgenderism.”
The Governor, during a stop in North Charleston, skunked Bud Light for its short-lived but controversial collaboration with trans actress and influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
DeSantis expressed his preference that “businesses focus on their core mission of providing whatever service or whatever they’re doing in the economy and not getting mired into woke political activism.”
Then he blasted “this ridiculous thing with Bud Light by trying to push the transgenderism.”
“These are corporations — mostly very wealthy, powerful corporations — and they’re trying to leverage their economic power to change our country, to change society, to change policy,” the Governor lamented.
DeSantis has been speaking out against the domestic beer purveyor more of late.
This week, on “The Benny Show” podcast video, the Governor vowed never to drink the domestic light beer again, saying a boycott of the brewmeister was “righteous.”
“Why would you want to drink Bud Light? I mean, like, honestly that’s like them rubbing our faces in it and it’s like these companies that do this, if they never have any response, they’re just going to keep doing it. So, if you as a consumer are like … ‘Yeah, they’re doing that, but I’m just going to keep drinking anyways,’ well, then they’re going to keep doing it,” DeSantis said, before extolling the power of the selective boycott.
“I think we have power as consumers to make our voice heard and not on every company because sometimes conservative consumers aren’t going to make a dent in some companies. This one is one,” DeSantis added.
“If you don’t have conservative beer drinkers, you’re going to feel that. And so, you know, I think it’s a righteous thing.”
He went on to express his preference for Guinness Stout in the same segment, a brand noted for its embrace of LGBTQ+ beer fans.

why does DeSantis spread the message of hate? I don’t get it.
Secondly, Anheuser-Busch owns a multitude of beer and beverage companies and most other liquor, as well as beer manufactures support the LGBTQ community
Additionally, most companies in general like PepsiCo or Coca-Cola, also support the LGBTQ community
So if all the hate mongrels want to hate I guess we’ll have a lot less alcoholics to deal with .
And the list goes on and on and who supports the LGBTQ community. So good luck with the hate Ron. By the way, your campaign rhetoric will never win a national election

For a group of people who are always whining about sensitive everybody is, these snowflakes sure are mad about this.
Just live and let live already. Dang. Just because Bud paid ONE person to promote their beer to their own very specific niche audience doesn’t mean the entire company is trying to turn you into Rhonda Santis.

Why not bash big business like Publix for raking in huge profits even during the pandemic and not paying their employees much. Publix 2021-2022, $54 billion in sales, $14 billion in profits, only $205 million in wages. For every $54 you spend at Publix, not even a dollar goes to employees. Yet all DeSantis has to say about big business is that they better not be woke?🤡

Publix is a huge republican donor. Look up Julie Jenkins Fancelli. The family pretty much funded the Jan 6 rally. I doubt that even a clown like desantis will go after them.

Of course not and it wouldn’t matter how much or how little they gave the GOP. The GOP doesn’t care about labor and wouldn’t in a million years take the steps necessary to make Publix or anyone else pay their employees. Not even enough Democrats to make it happen either. That’s not part of their agenda in any serious way. Only Bernie and like five other people would do something about it.

Mike, fantastic work. I applaud your efforts since I now earn more than $36,000 every month from just one basic online firm! These are the most fundamental internet operations be-04 jobs, yet you may start earning a consistent online income with as little as $29,000.

Our governor has a bigger problem if he thinks drinking Bud Light is going to turn anyone LGBTQ. But at least now I know why I prefer a Guiness.

With the GOP supermajority, it’s easy to pass nonsense legislation like this in Florida, but how wet would Rhonda’s Panties get when he tries his Goofy attacks on the national stage and pisses himself when the Democrats be like Nancy Reagan and Just Say No? Rhonda’s Panties being FLA Gov with a GOP supermajority in the state house yields one Meatwad with ZERO actual leadership experience.
