I hope you're sitting as you read this post.
Because when I tell you what Trumplicans are raising hell about you're going to be stunned. Ready?
With all the chaotic events and legislations swirling around the entire country Republicans are losing their shit because the Cracker Barrel restaurant changed its logo! I'm not kidding you or pulling your leg.
As a matter of fact, Cracker Barrel's stock plummeted by almost $100 million this week after conservatives threatened to boycott the company, citing its unpopular rebranding, change of decor, LGBTQ and Pride initiatives, and DEI policies.
This push to Make Cracker Barrel Great Again got Republican Rep. Byron Donalds hackles up as he accused the company change of being a "woke rebrand."
MAGA mouthpieces were furious that the image of an old man and a barrel disappeared while keeping just the name of the chain, still with the familiar gold and brown color tones. The typeface has also been modernized.
While Trumplicans are just fine with changing the names of military bases, ships and even the Gulf of Mexico, Cracker Barrel's ditching of the barrel man for the first time since 1977 has crossed a MAGA line.
MAGA luminaries like Donald Trump Jr. have made clever observations about the change. Junior's sums it up with "WTF is wrong with Cracker Barrel?" A deep thinker that one.
The MAGA rage also featured conservative X account Woke War Room. They claim Cracker Barrel CEO Julie Feiss Masino, who has been in the role for two years, has "scrapped a beloved American aesthetic and replaced it with sterile, soulless branding."
People can't afford housing, groceries, and are going bankrupt if they get cancer so naturally conservatives are mad about Cracker Barrel's logo. The outrage doesn't make sense. It's a reflection of how unserious Trump's minions are.
How dare the company change how it looks and its logo after 47 years. How dare they do a makeover to catch up with the times. The chain has also hired country singer Jordan Davis to appear in commercials as part of the rebranding.
As it Stands, all I can say is, get over it you bunch of snowflakes!
