    No, this is about harming the businesses that support the destruction of the American democratic republic not just businesses owned by Trump.

      No, this is about harming every single business everywhere. The event organizers and their leader Schwarz specifically do not want targeted boycotts.

      Some postings for the event created by online supporters have suggested a targeted boycott of retailers like Ford, McDonald’s, Meta, Target and Walmart that have ended their DEI programs to comply with an executive order signed by President Trump in January. However, official messaging from The People’s Union suggests a boycott of all major retailers, with the goal of enacting broader economic change.

      From the article above.

        Ok buddy, how does your quote differ from mine in a meaningful way.

        me- this is about targeting large businesses that support Trump not just Trump businesses.

        You- that’s wrong this isn’t targeted

        Your quote’s last sentence “However, official messaging from The People’s Union suggests a boycott of all major retailers, with the goal of enacting broader economic change.”

        I added emphasis as this is in fact targeted. It targets larger retailers. How is that different than my claim.
