Target CEO Didn’t Know His Company Was About To Implode Over Transgender Bathrooms
The Daily Caller ^ | 04/07/2017 | Jim Treacher

I don’t particularly care which bathroom you use, as long as you wash your hands when you’re done. I also don’t particularly care if your company suffers a huge backlash for bowing to political correctness. And I don’t go to Target stores much anymore, ever since a Meijer store opened up near me. So Target’s recent travails don’t really concern me. Tough luck.

Being “woke” might make you feel better about yourself, but it can cost you. Literally. ..

There’s nothing at Target that I can’t get faster and/or cheaper somewhere else. No need to boycott them - there’s just no reason to go there.

Target store. In the past I enjoyed going 2x month. Today, I cannot remember the last time I made a purchase at Target. I go to Safeway, Amazon and the local AM/PM shop at Arco.

Ya and I just flared up on the wikileaks post. Crap is beyond old. Yet everyone keeps buying the same sh1t. It’s like they are all in their protective bubble. The tornado is coming so they are sticking their heads between their legs and kissing there ass goodbye. If they don’t wake up and take some action for their benefit, they will be kissing their ass good by in a painful way.

Yes the war mongers are so proud. Stupid as crap but proud. If India just decided to drop 29 missiles on our air base with out a researched and confirmed reason. It would be swell with everyone here on FR. Am sure of that, based on a good portion of comments made today that all agree with CNN and the Washington Poop, among other amazing left wing (fake ) news outlets. But hey they where celebrated today!

War is peace.......

Or he’s lying to distance himself from it. “Hey, I know this policy was bad and I definitely came out and doubled down on it when the heat started BUT it wasn’t my idea, some flunky did it. A flunky, by the way, I also publicly supported. But I had nothing to do with it!”

He says as he tries to avoid being sued for causing massive share holder losses.

“Next target, the NCAA”

Won’t happen. That’s like asking ancient Romans to give up their free Coliseum passes.

He believed more people were with him than against him.

Totally incorrect. Targets a no-go zone for me.

Well, either he had bought into the liberal agenda hard enough to knowingly sacrifice company well being, or he is stunningly incompetent and short sighted. Either way, he should be fired and any golden parachute and retirement pulled.

Or he’s lying to distance himself from it.

Oh, he’s definitely lying to distance himself from it. But the buck stops with him.

so....

Brian Cornell's lying, incompetent, ineffective, or all three. Not a good look for a CEO.

I never understood Targets bathroom policy..

Around here they always have the Men/Women restrooms and a “family” restroom that is just a single crapper..

change the “family” one to CONFUSED.. problem solved.

Tell me.

For a while after the attack it looked like they were about to take over! Except, of course, we've seen this before    :)

That’s because you’re an idiot and don’t know what business you were in. I hope the stockholders sue your ass for malfeasance and demand every penny you were paid back.

I don’t “particularly care which bathroom you use,” either, Mr. Clueless, I care about sex offenders using permission to enter women’s bathrooms in order to OFFEND.

Obviously my toilet at HOME is mixed use, that is NOT the issue.

“If one is cordial to them and can carry on an intelligent conversation, they automatically assume your politics are identical.”

This is my life. Driving a cab in the city and people come in and sit down and just start attacking Trump, Republicans, conservatives. . . it’s happened 100 times. Never stop to wonder hey, what if the driver voted for Trump?

Bingo, to me their lack of situational awareness and circumspection makes them fools. Or just arrogant turds who don’t care what they say.
I like to hold back MY personal info until they declare themselves. Then if they’re flaming libs, I can just observe them for entertainment value.
Information asymmetry.
