Kid Rock<\/b> has decided to end his boycott of Bud Light<\/i> after being convinced that Anheuser-Busch<\/i> “got the message.”<\/p>\n
In April, Rock posted a video on social media of him wearing a white MAGA hat and shooting cases of Bud Light with an assault rifle, yelling, “F**k Bud Light, and f**k Anheuser-Busch.”<\/p>\n
Rock was venting his frustration over brewing company Anheuser-Busch teaming up with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney<\/b> to promote Bud Light’s Easy Carry Contest.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Tucker Carlson<\/b> recently, Rock said, “At the end of the day, when you step back and look at it, like, yeah, they deserved a black eye and they got one. They made a mistake. So, do I want to hold their head under water and drown them because they made a mistake? No, I think they got the message.”<\/p>\n
He added, “Hopefully other companies get it too, but at the end of the day, I don’t think the punishment that they’ve been getting at this point fits the crime. I would like to see us back on board and become bigger because that’s the America that I want to live in.”<\/p>\n
“There’s nothing wrong with giving a spanking. You don’t spank them for the rest of their life.”<\/p>\n
Despite his open protest, Rock continued selling Bud Light beer in his Nashville bar and later patched things up with Brendan Ball Whitworth<\/b>, C.E.O. of Anheuser-Busch. <\/p>\n
