Al Sharpton's DEI stunt backfires spectacularly after liberal icon marches in support of Costco: 'kiss of death'

Costco shoppers warned that Al Sharpton's involvement in a 'buy in' celebrating their DEI policies could be a 'kiss of death' for the retail giant.

The show of support from Sharpton's organization came after Costco and its shareholders defied President Donald Trump and conservative activists by voting to stick to their diversity, equity and inclusion policies last week.

The controversial civil right activist led 100 members of his National Action Network through the Harlem Costco to spend their money in a show of gratitude for the decision.
 
'Leading a buy-in with 100+ @NationalAction members at the @Costco location in Harlem, NYC to show support for the company's strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI),' Rev. Sharpton said in a post on X.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Costco erred and will change.

It likes $ more than DEI.

Just like Budweiser

That’s a very loooong way down they could fall if Costco decides to be the left’s DEI prop.

Rev. Al Sharpton and about 100 of his followers descended on an East Harlem Costco Saturday in support of the company’s commitment to controversial diversity, equity and inclusion practices.

Shoplifting for DEI.
