Target CEO Defends Pro-Transgender Policy, Stocks Crash Down Another $2 Billion
2016-05-13
[Breitbart] The CEO of retail giant Target is zig-zagging between the many customers who are angered by his decision to open single-sex bathrooms to the other sex, the gender-identity progressives who pushed for the disastrous transgender policy, and the Wall Street stock-pickers who have chopped roughly $4.5 billion off the company’s value.

"We’re going to continue to embrace our belief in diversity and inclusion, just how important that is to our company,"CEO Brian Cornell said in a May 11 appearance on CNBC’s "Squawk Box" business show. "But we’re also going to make sure our focus on safety is unwavering," he added.

To mollify the public angered by his removal of single-sex restrooms and changing rooms, the company will add family bathrooms to all of its stores, he said.

We’re committed over the next few months, to make sure every one of our stores has that option, because we want to make sure that our guests be welcomed in our stores. But if there’s a question of safety, I can tell you and others, our focus on safety is unwavering, and we want to make sure we provide a welcoming environment for all our guests, one that’s safe, one that’s comfortable.

But Cornell did not offer to return single-sex changing rooms, which is likely the most unnerving element in the company’s new open-door, pro-transgender agenda. http://markets.money.cnn.com/services/api/chart/snapshot_chart_api.asp?symb=TGT

#7  The left knows EXACTLY what they are doing. It is an attack on the Christian principals of a civilized nation. Via the public schools they are conditioning the next generation for totalitarian rule.

#3  I wonder why Champ is not in favor of the Iranian method of dealing with transgender people?

I'm supposing it'd be the same as gay people - defenestration.
