Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

They can distance themselves all they want. The damage is done.
They're all franchises
I can't imagine there is anything in the contract they violated either.
But, that being said, I would certainly avoid that Macca's and the franchise owners ones
That's part of the damage done. They can claim they're non-political, but they allow their franchisees to make corporate appear political, because they're basically the same thing to the average person because they don't know the difference.
Streisand effect. Firstly, the first thing Trump dumbasses are going to do is claim freedom of speech and start trashing maccas joints. Doing that will hurt all maccas franchises and make it dangerous for them.
Secondly, not if its not in the contract.. Trump will threaten to fight for them. It won't matter if he loses (Right wing idiots will pretend they're winning). Maccas is a global brand, so there is a lot of potential for damage.
Best thing to do is simply block the franchise owner from getting any more franchises, and prioritise other franchise owners. It's subtle, and it works longer term
