The Joke of a Home Depot Boycott

OK, so the founder of Home Depot says he will donate to the Trump campaign. Naturally, the far-left trolls on Twitter don't like that, so they want to boycott Home Depot.

After I stopped laughing, I thought I would pass on a bit of reality - most of Home Depot's customers are tradesmen. And the vast majority of tradesmen are conservatives, not progressives. Furthemore, the tradespersons are long time customers, and like most SANE people, won't boycott any company simply because of the personal politics of the owner(s).

After all, if the lefties want to keep playing that stupid game, Republicans could put liberal businesses like Ben & Jerry's out of business. And then Ben & Jerry would not be able to fund the causes that progressives adore.

It is worthy of note that over 95% of all "boycotts" are started by far-left progressives who make their living by complaining and finding fault. While conservatives generally work to build people up, progressives work tirelessly to tear people down. For them, it's a matter of having power over others.

As for myself - well, I have been to Home Depot at least once per day, every day this year. And for those of us in the trades, that's fairly normal.

If there is any effect of a boycott of Home Depot it will likely result in a BOOST to their business.

After all, that was the result of the boycott of Chick-Fil-A and Hobby Lobby...
