Yuengling kind of endorses Trump, now enjoy these hateful Tweets about it

Because I have sworn an unbreakable blood oath to be a part of the “liberal media,” I must declare Donald Drumpf to be bad — like classic-political-horn-dogger-and-scandal-pirate Warren-G.-Harding bad (not this Warren G; he’s good), but what does it say about Hillary Clinton that she might lose to him? Either way, people have an opinion about it and never has that opinion been so filled with an uncompromising hate and devotion.

Last week, Drumpf’s son Eric Drumpf toured the D.G. Yuengling and Son’s brewery in Pottsville, Pa., on a campaign stop. E Drumpf noted how high taxes, over-regulation and Obamacare are making things difficult for American businesses like Yuengling to grow. According to an article on the Reading Eagle (a news outlet for Reading Pennsylvania, Berks County and surrounding areas):

“My father’s going to make it a lot easier for business to function,” [E Drumpf] declared. “We’re going to do it right here in the U.S.”

Dick Yuengling welcomed Drumpf, thanking him for taking the time to visit the brewery.

“Our guys are behind your father,” Yuengling said. “We need him in there.”

That endorsement seems to have galvanized at least a few beer drinkers to start spouting off endorsements of love or ranting promises of eternal boycott to what is considered the largest craft brewery in America by the Brewer’s Association definition. Below are some of the angrier opinions in Tweet form. Granted there were a zillion Tweets endorsing Drumpf and Yuengling for the visit and support (check those out here), but what fun would it be to embed those?
