After Donald Trump and other well-known right-wingers criticized Bud Light last year for putting transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney on their products, the former president said everyone should now rethink the situation.
Trump urged his followers to give Anheuser-Busch a “second chance.”

A second chance for Bud Light?
“The Bud Light ad was a mistake of epic proportions,” Trump wrote on his website Truth Social on Tuesday, referring to the transgender advertising campaign that cost Anheuser-Busch billions of dollars.
“Anheuser-Busch is not a Woke company,” the former president said.
Trump added: “I can give you a lot, and I'm making a list, and maybe releasing it for the world to see.”
After promising a list of “Woke” companies that he seemed to think his audience should boycott, Trump wrote:
“Anheuser-Busch is a great American brand that probably deserves a second chance,” Trump continued in defense of the global beverage company. “What do you think? Maybe, instead, we should go after those corporations looking to destroy America!”
Some online enjoyed Trump's tweet about second chances.

Last year, Trump said conservatives would make Anheuser-Busch understand their anger
Kid Rock and others joined Trump last summer along with several conservative figures, trashing Bud Light for interfering with casual beer drinking.
“It's time to beat the radical left at its own game,” Trump said at the time. “Money does talk, and now Anheuser-Busch understands that.”
In June of last year, Bud Light sales dropped by nearly 30 percent.
Kid Rock also recently called for Bud Light to be given a second chance, telling Newsmax: “I'm sure they got the message. Do I approve of what they did? No! And we put their heads under water for a while and hurt them. But, you know, I'm not one to keep punching someone when they're frustrated, when there are plenty of companies out there that deserve that treatment.
