DC: Former presidential nominee Mitt Romney recently hosted a donor meeting for former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz who has been reportedly considering a run for president as a Democrat in 2020.
Politico’s Ben Schrekinger said the event did not go well and that many left uninspired by the potential nominee.
“Will there be some segment of the customer base that decides, ‘I’m not going to go to Starbucks anymore should he become a candidate,” Mark Kalinowski, president of Kalinowski Equity Research, asked Politico. “You have to think about the employees. You have to think about the shareholders, everybody who might be affected by the decision to run.”
Both Wall Street analysts and Starbucks leadership are concerned about how a potential campaign would impact the coffee company, according to Politico. They’re worried about potentially losing customers from the other side of the political aisle. more here
Say, has Mitt been helping out any Republicans lately?
If elected, I promise a free pot of coffee in every chicken!
Now they are concerned about losing customers from the other side of the isle, after they have spent the past two years (at least) throwing us out of their businesses?
Or have they finally come to the realization that there aren’t many leftists with a lot of money (outside the news media and the entertainment industries)?
“They’re worried about potentially losing customers from the other side of the political aisle.”
Don’t have to worry about me because I will never step foot into a Starbutts restaurant. Just stating “the other political aisle” tells me they’re big time liberals and afraid to lose conservatives. WTH are conservatives doing giving their money to Starbutts? Make your own coffee and lattes at home, save your money for a nice vacation.
Running for President is the least of your worries, asshole.
No surprise, Mittens goes both ways as long as he benefits.
He’ll even move to Utah and buy a Senate seat.
Every night when he sleeps, and every day off he takes.

It’s in the Constitution (somewhere near the back)
i’ve voted for some assholes in my time, booosh, mccain, but i never voted for spit* romney.
With friends like Romney…
Mittens has become irrelevant. The worst kind of death to a narcissist.
Next thing we’ll hear is GWB fund raising for K. Harriss. As I’v said for over a decade UNIPARTY!
the GOP left is openly admitting they are actually D’s who takes money from dumb R’s. Unfortunately there are a lot of dumb R’s,
Would you guys dis-inherit me if I say I hope Mitt loses?
I hate to think a D would add a seat at the table, but it may be better to know the way he would vote as opposed to always wondering what Mitt would do. I can just see him doing a McCain during an important, tight vote. I can see him grinning as he thumbs down.
Claudia- I’ve thought about that myself. 😉
Speaken of McShitstain. He issued a very lucid attempt at a take down of DJT today. Impressive for a guy who’s entire brain has rotted away. Starting to believe those people that say McShitstains cancer is only an attempt to avoid prosecution. Fxcking dick.
Claudia, I have faith we will pick up a Dem seat to counter a Romney loss. He needs to GTFO. A Dem senator in Utah won’t be able to go full leftard very easily. And did I mention that Romney needs to GTFO.
Brad, I’ve thought the same thing about McCain.
Nunya,
……..who needs enemas?

If you follow “Q”, he’s come right out and said it. I’ve heard of the long good bye, but this is ridiculous.
Way to go, Utah republicans nominating this asshole for your senate candidate! How stupid can you get?
