I mean, the geniuses both angered right winged douchebags, and the LGBQT crowd.

Hemorrhaging more support now would be an accomplishment.

They lost like 25% of their market share very quickly and it isn't recovering.

Lmfao at people saying it just blew over. That's a massive decline in a few weeks.

Went from claiming it as a win for their side to suddenly not caring about it. Love it when they turn tail and run.

My two uncles who have drank bud light since before I was born are both Busch light drinkers now.

Pretty sure they're still owned by the same parent company, but I don't have the heart to tell 'em.

i've always been a hamms drinker so it makes no difference to me

Good, I hope Bud Light continues to sink. They really showed their true colors with how fast they dropped Dylan Mulvaney. She doesn't deserve any of the shit she's been put through.
