Bud Light Lobbyist is Mega Fundraiser For DeSantis Campaign
The National Pulse ^ | 06/05/2023

Posted on 06/07/2023 8:43:16 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

An Anheuser-Busch (Bud Light) lobbyist is also a major bundler for Governor Ron DeSantis, POLITICO has revealed.

Slater Bayliss, a former Jeb Bushbundler” was even the third-largest bundler for the DeSantis campaign at one point during his Four Seasons donor meet the day of his campaign launch. Bayliss had raised at least $242,600 for DeSantis.

Anheuser-Busch has seen $27bn wiped off its value since its endorsement from transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

Let’s not kid ourselves, they are all sleeping together, wasn’t it Trump Jr who tried to get people to stop the boycott?

Yep, that was an obvious mistake. Hang around politics for too long and it envelops you in all the bad ways.

Slater Bayliss? Is he married to Biffy Worthington? My goodness. Those are names right out of Mandy Pepperidges address book.

Bonehead aristocrats.

“DeSantis has ALL the wrong friends, President Trump HAS ALL the right enemies!”

Does anyone know if President Trump ever received a donation from the company that owns Bud Light?

I am assuming he did not; otherwise he would be tainted. Just seeking confirmation.

You need people who have experience and are good at what they do to run a campaign. This guy isn't making policy decisions for DeSantis. Also, who the hell cares if he lobbied for Anheuser-Busch? If you heard this two months ago, would you think anything of it? Like, did this bundler have anything to do with the Mulvaney fiasco?

I still support Trump over DeSantis, but this is stupid outrage.

Ah, this is a highly organized plan to take out both Trump and Ron.
The left a long time ago its easier and cheaper to throw money at opposition than to fight them in the general.
We already have enough FR in-fighting.
Lets not help the left by loosing FL and 2024 election.

Also does anyone know if President Trump ever had a licensing agreement to sell Bud Light at any or all of his golf courses, resorts, hotel bars, etc?

Like Trump’s son who was begging conservatives to quit this boycott that has now cost Bud Light billions and reverberated across corporate America?

These creepy Trump cultists think a lobbyist for a company is involved in their marketing decisions.

That is how uninformed they are.

"Trump Jr. defended Anheuser-Busch on his podcast last week, calling for an end to boycott while citing the company is "iconic" and that it has a history of donations to Republican candidates."

How quickly you people forget.

Lol.

Jr. doesn't tie his shoes without daddy's permission. Trump has recently sided with Disney, North Korea and the WHO, and Charlie Christ. The entire family becomes more of a joke every single day.

Oh, I forgot Cuomo! Trump just loves him some ass-grabbing, elderly-killing Cuomo! You’ve got a great role model!

I guess I missed the part where Trump denounced his son’s comments as out of line and not representative of his views, just as I missed the part where Don Jr. walked back his comments and apologized.

If I did indeed miss this, please correct me.
