Once American corporations take over. Common sense goes out the door. Nascar, like the govt is lost. Sold out to big money.

Who are these people kissing up to? I would wager the majority of their fan base supports what Trump said. I seriously doubt they will gain fans by this action. Must be kissing up to PC sponsors, but who are THEY kissing up to? What will it take for the business people in this country to realize they are pandering to the wrong crowd?

"We looked at everything we saw coming down and what we heard from our sponsors and our partners and what we feel we should be doing, and that's what led us to the decision today," NASCAR spokesman David Higdon said Friday at Daytona International Speedway. It's all about sponsors and partners. That's where the money is. Screw the fans. Who needs fans when you have sponsors.

“We will be as aggressive as possible to disassociate NASCAR events from an offensive and divisive symbol.”What a bunch of faux outrage hooey....the flag has been there all the time. If there was outrage to be expressed, why didn't it occur at any point in time between zero 0 of NASCAR and today?

Yeah, well, NASCAR decided to pee on the Confederate flag, too, telling the fans not to bring the image to races.
Screw you NASCAR. Watch your ratings plummet.

"We looked at everything we saw coming down and what we heard from our sponsors..."
Yep, much like the sponsors of the media and politicians.

Well.......
I guess that is that.....
It’s been nice Nascar, but you have been ticking me off on this social garbage for years now and I have had enough.
That’s what you get for making a deal with NBC.....now you get to lie in your own crap.

Exactly! Up to now NASCAR had no problem, but suddenly (as if he got an order from Soros or somebody) Brian France is having a hissy fit.
To: ridesthemiles
As a serious Conservative, I would vote for him at this stage of the gameI like Trump personally, but I would not go that far...trust me...you will see what I see at some point during this campaign.

Nascar is in retreat.
To: rickyrikardo
The once full-on all-American NASCAR, must now bow to the queers, perverts, and Communists.
To: apocalypto
Time to replace Brian France.
NASCAR fans should start a “Dump Brian” campaign.

the left complained for decades how big business ran the country and so they infiltrated them and now run them. This is the product of their deceit.

Getting rid of the France family would be literally impossible. They are NASCAR.
Just let them dry up like a tumbleweed and blow down the street.

The sponsors are running the show, and they can line up many more like him. It's the sponsors.
