What happens when you shit where you eat
I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

- Target merchandise makes you gay
- Bud Light makes you trans
- history books make you Marxist
Is that right?

Like a Target on your back
Apparently their CEO has sent a letter to Target's employees apologizing for the donation to an anti-gay candidate (but not withdrawing it as far as I know). The line that kills me is this: "The intent of our political donation was to support economic growth and job creation." Leaving aside the wisdom of that decision (uh, job creation under Repuglican leadership 2001-2008 was the least since Herbert Hoover and the Great Depression, uh, when ten percent of your customers are out of work and Repuglicans are against extending unemployment benefits it's going to cut into your customers spending capabilities), the thing I want to know is, if that's indeed your goal, why in the fuck are you wasting $150,000 on a political donation? How much of that money could have gone to your employees to fuel their spending, and therefore, the economy as a whole? How many jobs could your company have created with that money?
What the fuck? I mean, really, what the fuck? I cannot be the only person who smells bullshit from Target....
Peace,
