Starbucks customers across the country have begun placing orders under the name Trump, forcing baristas to shout the President-elects name when drinks are ready.
A Starbucks employee sparked controversy earlier this month when he called the police on a Donald Trump supporter.
Operation #TrumpCup is an apparent backlash against that incident as well as other cases of discrimination against Republicans.
Its spread like wildfire across the internet, becoming a phenomenon almost overnight.
Many prominent conservatives have posted pictures of themselves participating and have encouraged their fans to join in. Some critics of the #TrumpCup movement have pointed out that its a bit weird to protest against Starbucks by buying more Starbucks.
However, Tim Treadstone one of the movements founders who goes by the name @bakedalaska on Twitter said this is not a protest but, rather, a statement of support for the President-elect.

Tell that to all the cops. I'm sure they'll get a good laugh hearing about poor coffee servers at Starbucks being harassed.
I've read all 3 volumes of the techniques of harassment. I suggest others do the same. This is a war for America. In CA I operate much like a POWs do and always harass the 'captors' and make their lives as miserable as humanly possible.☺ It's an important, but a fun rewarding job! Times are changing and the leftist/globalist, who've orchestrated the decline and debt for decades, need to learn we're not rolling over anymore and actions will have consequences. No more compromising with these people. That brought us to where we are today.
Time to find a bakery and ask them to bake a Trump cake.
Love it!
It's battery acid. You can clean engines with it.
#TrumpCup Protest Against Starbucks Latest Controversy for Coffee Giant
“Over the years, writing customer names on cups and calling out their names has been a fun ritual in our stores. Rarely has it been abused or taken advantage of,” Starbucks said in a statement. “We hope and trust that our customers will continue to honor that tradition. We don’t require our partners to write or call out names.”
Or even Heywood Jablomey.
Just boycott Starbucks.
Boy, they’re going to have a lot of folks going to Starbucks looking for payday$$
Boycott them by buying their product, this one is a little confusing
Don’t forget Jack Mehoff
I just read that this is a Canadian comedian trolling TrumpCup
The guy who started it said it’s not a protest..it’s a statement.
But it sure sparked a few more fun ideas!
That is inspired!
Increasing their sales isn’t much of a statement
HAH!!!
Then boycott them. Let the others have their fun. It’s their money.
