5. And thanks to Anheuser-Bush's statement in response...it's turning into another Disney scenario

The statement released yesterday by the CEO doesn't quite come out and say the words, "I'm sorry" to their Republican guzzlers, but there a heavy dose of, "we never intended....", "when I was in the armed forces" and "supporting our communities, military, first responders, sports fans and hard working Americans everywhere". He did all but hug the American Flag, Trump style.

So now - as happened with Disney & Florida's "Don't Say Gay" law, Bud is learning that if you are going to take a stance as a corporation - especially when it's the morally correct thing to do - you'd better commit to it, one way or the other. Hopefully on the non-fascist, non-bigot side.

Now neither side trusts them.
