From the “you just had to know THIS was coming” department, the CEO of the recreational vehicle and equipment chain Camping World is already backing down from statements that he made suggesting that some supporters of President Trump should shop elsewhere.
The remarks of Marcus Lemonis have come back to bite him in the ass big time as he seems to be finding out just how many millions of dollars that his loose tongue and arrogance could cost him if Trump supporters took his advice and spent their hard-earned dollars at businesses owned by competitors.
Now he is claiming that it was all a big misunderstanding and that he ONLY meant the neo-Nazis and white supremacists which according to CNN – there are 63 million of them.
He probably told 3/4 of his customers he didn’t want their business. Should be fired yesterday.
because it would be soooo difficult to purchase camping gear from a different company. dumba**.
Too late!
What Hillary voters shop at Camping World?
He’s the owner - he just fired his customers, instead.
He should know liberals are city dwellers. Republicans are country folk more likely to buy out door stuff.
What a dumb CEO...
As far as I know, a number of the liberal friends I know go camping. But he is still an idiot because he doesn’t know how many of his customers would vote for Trump
This is a publicly traded company. Their stock hasn’t tanked yet.
Campers are conservative. He just told a majority of his customers to go elsewhere.
Stockholders should force him out. He’s a moron.
I don’t get why companies like this or the NFL don’t give a flip about their customers and go out of their way to insult them. I guess it’s all about virtue signaling and the echo chamber they live in.
No one with smarts shops there any way. Camping World is too expensive and the actual customers are non campers.
I believe that Marcus is one of the key owners of the company. He may be the sole owner. He has a TV show on CNBC called the profit
It would be fine if they hurt financially if it’s a liberal-based company bring it on. But there are many conservative-based companies would get the same protest from the leftist.
Right now we all should be fighting the takeover CNN by AT&T. This should not be allowed based on the crap they put out the other night after the president’s speech.
To hell with all of them. I’m so sick of all this. Doesn’t hurt us. We don’t need to shop there or patronize any of these anti Trump people who are harming the country. A big FU to all those corporations, hollywood, aports.... all of them. We can collectively put them put of business. All you hated white guys out there should turn off the NFL. Enough with the BS white shaming and everything else.
His show is typically fake “reality” too. There are several letters and articles posted online that tell what fraud Lemonis and his producers are
then he features one episode with that bigot George Lopez
What’s wrong “Profit”? Getting blowback from your people over your stupidity? TOO LATE. The toothpaste is already out of the tube
Screw you forever. I had already let the local site know I wouldnt be doing future business there.
“I am SpartaLEE”
Shop at Cabelas or LL Bean; take your business elsewhere, permanently, and ignore this clown’s phony “apology”.
How? Hate to say it but some days I think we are just outnumbered.
That must have been a very interesting meeting between him and the Board of Directors.
“This is a publicly traded company. Their stock hasn’t tanked yet.”
Then we’re not working hard enough.
