One thought on “Which U.S. companies are pulling back on diversity initiatives?

  1. well, fellow liberals and moderates…the executive managers of the entities identified above have decided the risk to their bottom lines posed by conservative backlash was not worth their personal bonuses. Appealing to the White Christian Hypocrite right wing was more important.

    So, we’ll not shop there; Tractor Supply probably wasn’t too concerned about us suburban folk. But WalMart has been pushing for the upper income suburban customer, and we have Target and Meijers as choices; I can buy GM instead of Ford. Lowes is on the list, but not Home Depot. That’s an easy one. Or Mendard’s, or ACE. McDonalds? There’s Wendy’s and Arby’s and Taco Bell and other choices.

    The Pillow Man saw what happened to his business, and Tesla is just beginning to see lower sales, perhaps relating to 2nd VP Mump rising to the fore of the WCH movement.

    It’s another chance to vote…only this time with your dollars. The votes that will really count and be heard…
