Like Stacey Dash cons/Dumb Donald's minions and supporters will pretend to support them if itis to their advantage or for appearances and them dump them after their usefulness is over. this person is no different.

Of course they can't. Clearly, any non-white person who supports trump is a race traitor not some who thinks for themselves and makes their own choices

As a classical liberal, I hate how the left has become so racist. Everything is about skin color to them now.
As soon as an African American supports Trump, they're called a bunch of racist names like "coon" and the left/media doesn't call them out on it. It couldn't possibly because Trump offers policies that help minorities, that'd just be impossible!
But as soon as your skin color is white and you say racist things, it's headline news.
The racial double standard is sickening and needs to be abolished, just like all racism does."All great truths begin as blasphemies."

Totally agree. I considered myself to be an originalist, or classic liberal too that people keep trying to suppress anyone who doesn't agree with them, while acting like they aren't fascists, is just ridiculous

You're making a lot of assumptions about people you don't even know. About people you're not even informed about.
As a matter of fact, Dash got fired for saying things Fox didn't want said on air and continued to defend Trump after that.

No it doesn't. You have yet to prove any claims of people pretending anything but feel free to try again.

Did you read the comments below the story? Hilarious, reminds me of when the left called for a ban on Chick Filet for a day and Cick Filet had record sales that day. I bet they still think the MSM is reporting news accurately.

Yeah, it's real funny how Chick Fil A had a brief sales spike, then their sales fell lower than they were before, and they stopped supporting those anti-gay and anti-family charities that had everyone so mad. Lol, ha ha, stupid leftists with their actually working boycott.
Wait, what's your point? -

Yeah, they're growing in 2016, the boycott was 4 years ago. I can't find anything right now on the sales dip, but I know the huge numbers obviously didn't last, and they stopped supporting the anti-gay and anti-family groups in pretty short order. If they were a good profit option, they wouldn't have done that.

I think you misread or misunderstood (deliberately) the impact of the "boycott" on Chick-fil-A. Seems that "boycott" only gave them more attention.
Chick-Fil-A Sales Soar In 2012 Despite Bad PR
In the latest sign that all press is good press, Leon Stafford of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Chick-fil-As sales soared 12 percent, to $4.6 billion, in 2012. The good fortune follows several years of impressive expansion and strong sales, which have pushed the privately-held companys valuation north of $4.5 billion, making billionaires out of its founders.
Chick-fil-A caught a great deal of flak throughout the year after its president Dan Cathy came out against gay marriage and in support of the biblical definition of the family unit. Gay rights activists staged protests at locations around the country, and some even called for a boycott of the brand.
But if the uproar dampened enthusiasm for the brand among pro-gay rights consumers, it also inspired vigorous backlash from some conservative (and politically apathetic but poultry-loving) customers. Soon after the height of the controversy, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee dubbed (via a Facebook posting) August 1 Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, leading to record sales throughout the chain.
These latest sales data are just further proof that all that negative coverage didnt hurt demand for chicken sandwiches among Chick-fil-As core consumers.
Strong sales look likely to continue for some time. The company opened 96 new outposts in 2012, after opening 92 in 2011, so more and more of the country now has access to the food. Plus, Chick-fil-A has backed down from its opposition to gay marriage Cathy has even apparently become friendly with a top LGBT rights activist. So it may only be a matter of time before pro-gay consumers become as enthusiastic as the rest of the country.
CORRECTION:: This article has been amended to reflect that Huckabee, not Chick-fil-A, instigated the Appreciation Day event.
