Do you boycott or discontinue supporting companies that donate to politicians and causes you oppose?

At least 10 NFL owners and many restaurants have donated to Trump’s campaigns. If you worked for one of these companies would you quit?

I don't pay enough attention to this stuff to put too much stock into it. We all know everyone is corrupt and money talks.
Like if I go to a restaurant and the owner proclaims "I proudly slap women!" I probably wouldn't eat there.

The Chik Fil A thing is slightly different in my mind, because I don't think people have to support gay marriage, even if I do. I think it's dumb not to and they're wrong, but I don't decide what people choose to believe. Now if Chik Fil A was openly like "fuck gay people, they're trash I'm glad they can't get married" then yeah I wouldn't go there. I don't think they did that though, I think the issue was like some higher up said they don't support gay marriage and then they gave money to like the Salvation Army and stuff, which the gay community didn't like. I dunno

We have a customer that owns several local McDonalds locations. When I do get McDonalds I usually go to one of his locations. He’s Chinese and supports fellow minority franchise owners.

Problem is you cant control where your taxes go when you buy stuff pr pay taxes overal so one way or another you will end up paying into them somehow. Straight donating i only do personally. Have you all got those bullshit scam donating emails and calls to politcal parties of late

I dunno one of my friends old customers owns a busy one in long beach. When the gay issue came up that day was the busiest day in the companies history. So many supported him.

A family friend who is a public figure put on her IG story a list of companies and businesses that donate to Trump’s campaign. I feel we must continue to make change and wonder if people would relinquish supporting their favorite team...

Gurley did not appear to be the same player and the OL declined... however TG didn’t need to be extended that early. Team wanted him to be their STAR for fans in the LA market to go crazy over

Gone through the highs and lows throughout the past couple decades (mostly lows, actually all lows, can't even remember the last high)
