Trump supporter Linda Bean of L.L. Bean under attack by the left
L.L. Bean Board Member and Co-Owner Linda Bean on calls for a boycott of the company because of her support for President-elect Donald Trump and the state of the U.S. economy. Linda Bean, the granddaughter and co-owner of L.L. Bean, on Thursday said U.S. businesses are under attack and being bullied by anti-Trump groups. A group, Grabyourwallet.org, called for a boycott of L.L. Bean after Linda Bean, one of 50 family members that own the outdoor apparel maker, contributed $60,000 to a political action committee supporting President-elect Donald Trump. The Federal Election Commission said the donation exceeded the PAC’s individual donor limit of $5,000. "It’s bullying," Bean told the FOX Business Network’s Maria Bartiromo. "They want to control how we spend our money, what we buy, where we buy it. That’s wrong, it’s un-American." Shortly after her appearance on Fox Business, Trump tweeted a thank you to Linda Bean and urged customers to buy L.L. Bean. Link to order free L.L. Bean catalog. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-01-13 |
