Ted Cruz explains why a Target boycott won’t work like Bud Light – By Chris Pandolfo (FOX Business) May 27, 2023
‘Conservatives have typically been not very good at boycotts,’ Cruz said
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said on the Friday episode of his podcast that he does not think a boycott against Target will be as effective as the one against Bud Light.
On the “Verdict with Ted Cruz” podcast, the senator explained why it could be more difficult to launch a successful boycott against the department store chain, which has faced backlash over its June Pride month collection. Target annually features items catered to the LGBTQ+ community during Pride month, including “tuck friendly” bathing suits for transgender people and mugs that say “gender fluid.” Conservatives have threatened to boycott the store over similar items in the children’s section.
A Target insider told Fox News Digital that many locations, mostly in rural areas of the South, have relocated and tamped down Pride sections to avoid the kind of backlash Bud Light has received in recent weeks after using a transgender influencer in a promotional campaign.
