Sounds good to me. No more Starbucks. Hope they all move South to Mexico when Trump wins.

I suppose I could switch to Caribou Coffee for my caramel macchiato. Please tell me that they didn’t support Hillary?

Only patronize Starbucks on the road-maybe once a year. None close to me. Which is fine, because they roast the heck out of their coffee beans and the coffee tastes bitter and burnt to me. Dunkin Donuts coffee is way better - mellow and smooth. But there isn’t a DD near me, either.

There are, however, a couple of ma and pa coffee shops nearby which I like to patronize.

It’s only $2 and you get a free refill.

Same here!

Have indulged in Starbucks either 2 or 3 times in its entire existence. Politics had nothing to do with that fact. Starbucks coffee was and is a sorry product!

Its customers have bought the masterfully hyped, Madison Ave lie that buying your coffee at Starbucks makes you cool.

Maybe Howard’s next move will be to encourage the barristas to have a “frank” discussion about the Presidential election?

Another place-person needing boycotting is this one (one that desires globalism):

Facebook co-founder pledges $20M to defeat Trump

Dustin Moskovitz, a billionaire Facebook co-founder, is pledging $20 million to defeat Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

In a Thursday evening post on Medium, Moskovitz said he and his wife, Cari Tuna, are will be donating the money to super-PACs and Democratic committees dedicated to electing Hillary Clinton.

“Like many Democratic voters, we don’t support every plank of the platform, but it is clear that if Secretary Clinton wins the election, America will advance much further toward the world we hope to see,” Moskovitz wrote.

He added: “If Donald Trump wins, the country will fall backward, and become more isolated from the global community.”

I know I am repeating myself (which I can do very well!) with this post, but I never tire of telling my FRiends about good things!

This is my daily response to 10bux and their injection of their insane politics into the marketplace...

I can’t boycott Starbucks. I haven’t had a cup of their swill for over a year.

Schultz told CNN, calling her the “obvious” choice. ..................... For Who? people who want to be controlled, who want the Gov.t to decide how they should live?

While Charbucks is ubiquitous so is the competition. It’s not like they have a monopoly on coffee shops.

I heard rumors that Hannity may leave Fox News. If so, could we have Ollie North host “Equal Time” in that time slot?

Companies who back hillary must be companies who are on the take and want their empire to continue, and are threatened by a man who isn’t part of their cartel.

I never did understand buying coffee that had a price tag like Starbucks, but figured you can sell anything to anyone if you can make it fashionable to the younger and gullible youth.

Now, I’ll hear from Starbucks customers on here... just realize the older generation is the older generation.

I also read that there are more people eating out than go to the grocery store. Cooking meals and eating around the dinner table is old fashioned?

We’ve been avoiding Starbucks for years. There is so much better coffee at much more reasonable prices.

Give them to the homeless. Otherwise Starbucks gets to keep the money. Make them pay out.
