Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) appeared on Fox News's Sean Hannity show to offer solutions for combatting inflation and jobs weigh in on the newest culture war: Bud Light. The super serious Florida Senator claims that this country is now a "laughing stock" -- because of beer cans.
"We're focused on the fact that now some man pretending to be a woman gets paid millions of dollars to sell Nike sports bras and Bud Light," Little Marco said. "So the world looks at that and says, this place is a laughingstock."
"And they react to it," he continued. "And I could go on for an hour about all the things that we are being embarrassed on the world stage."
"Our adversaries are taking advantage of it and our friends are saying, hey, we may have to go on on our own here because these guys look like they're about to commit societal suicide," he added.
I'm calling bulllshit on conservatives. If you look at Truth Social, they're losing their shit over Bud Light showing support for the LGBTQ+ community even though this isn't new. The brand has touted its Pride campaigns for more than 20 years, including a rainbow aluminum bottle last year for Pride month.
"For twenty consecutive years, Bud Light has partnered with GLAAD in its mission to accelerate acceptance of LGBTQ people," said Zeke Stokes, GLAAD's Chief Programs Officer. "Bud Light stood with the community at a time when many brands did not, and their continued outspoken support sets the bar for other global brands.
Again, this isn't anything new, so I don't understand why they're crying sad tears. It's nice to see Republicans working hard, trying to deliver for the American people by throwing fits over a beer can label.
