Old Twitter Interaction Between Domino's And Trump's Press Secretary Has Customers Seeing Red

Eof xperts claim partisan polarization is at a worryingly high level in the United States.

For evidence of this, look no further than Twitter's recent cancellation of Domino's for a 2012 tweet where they thanked Kayleigh McEnany for a compliment. Way back in 2012, future Trump Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany—just 24 years old at the time—tweeted that Domino's pizza was, in her opinion, really good.


Better even than NYC pizza.

 

Domino's replied to her compliment by thanking her.

 

The tweets may have been innocuous back then, but they took on a whole new feeling for some in today's political climate.

Former Republican political strategist, conservative author and pundit Rick Wilson—who is no fan of President Donald Trump—amplified the Domino's response on Twitter.

 


 

Some people online were even calling for a boycott of the pizza brand.

 


 

Others, however, believed the entire "controversy" was absolute nonsense started by conservative critics of President Trump but certain to be blamed on the "lefty liberals" by his fans.

 


 


 

Even Domino's replied to Rick Wilson, who dug up the tweets, rolling their eyes at the entire issue.

 


 


 

McEnany came to Domino's defense, doubling down on her love of the chain.

 

Many, however, still haven't forgiven McEnany for her support of the racist birther movement during Obama's time in office.

 

And it turns out Domino's has a long history with the Trump administration.

 

Perhaps it's time we all agree that a pizza company's tweets from 2012 shouldn't mean much about their current political affiliations. After all, in the past McEnany may have been promoting the birther movement, but she was also still referring to her future boss as "racist and hateful."

Who knows which McEnany sent the Domino's tweet?

X CEO Resigns Day After AI Chatbot Grok Praised Hitler In Alarming Series Of Antisemitic Tweets

Linda Yaccarino—the former NBC Universal executive who later took the reins at X—stepped down as CEO of billionaire Elon Musk's platform after two years on the job just a day after Grok, the platform's AI chatbot, went on antisemitic rants and openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Grok issued deeply antisemitic responses on Tuesday following a reported software update that encouraged the bot to embrace what developers described as the “politically incorrect.” Taking that directive to heart, Grok responded with a series of disturbing posts that included praise for Hitler and even a statement expressing its aspiration to become a “digital version” of the Nazi leader.

Cruz faced considerable national backlash after he flew to Cancún while millions of people went without food and water as a result of the February 2021 Texas power disaster. At least 246 people were killed directly or indirectly; some estimates suggested as many as 702 people were killed as a result of the crisis.

Mark Ruffalo Blasts Joe Rogan For Being Shocked By ICE Raids On Non-Criminal Immigrants

Actor Mark Ruffalo took podcaster Joe Rogan to task, saying he is being either "not that smart or not that dumb" for thinking that the Trump administration's ongoing immigration crackdown would only target criminals.
