Bud light is done [1].
“We’re looking at losses in the billions when this is all said and done,” said the company’s newly-hired marketing director, Joe Barron, “there’s just no way the company can possibly continue this way.”
Barron says they will phase out Bud Light by the end of the year, with its final production run coming at the end of the third quarter. “We’ll use that stock through the Christmas season and be done with it.”
If I am the Democrats, I am very nervous about this outcome. After all, this is the first opportunity that most Americans have had to push back on what they’ve been pushing on us.
Then there’s Garth Brooks [2]. After seeing the damage done by the marketing campaign he decided to go a whole hog with it. He’s done. He’s lost his contract with Capitol Records, his bar closed inside of a week as investors pulled out.
These are fitting reactions. That kind of stupidity should be painful.
The strong reaction from Americans, pushing back against what we’ve been sold, is a wake up call. And you can guess what kind of impact this will have on the upcoming election.
