Target’s Sales Crumble For The First Time In Years Amid Backlash Over LGBT Kid Merchandise

Back in May, Geller Report reported on Target stores trans push To children. Target embraced the radical transgender agenda with its “Pride” marketing and sales campaign. The collection included clothing for children with rainbow symbols, LGBT-themed bibs and onesies for babies, and “tuck–friendly” bathing suits. The mamas weren’t having it. The men pushed back at Bud Light. Now it’s our turn.

The CEO of @Target has continually insisted that their PRIDE collection this year (including “tuck-friendly women’s swimsuits”) was a good business decision. Clearly it has not been. I will continue to #boycottTarget https://t.co/yQm91H4c01

Target’s sales crumble for the first time in years amid backlash over LGBT kid merchandise

By Will Kessler, Daily Caller, August 16, 2023:

Target reported Wednesday that it was lowering its sales and profit expectations for the rest of the year, with the company having faced conservative backlash earlier in the quarter over the release of LGBT products for kids, according to Target’s second quarter earnings report.

Target lowered its sales and profit expectations for the rest of the year after its quarterly sales fell for the first time in six years, declining 5.4%, while it announced it expected its share price to clock in between $7.00 to $8.00 as opposed to the previously expected $7.75 to $8.75, according to the earnings report. The decrease in expectations follows backlash from conservatives after the company announced a Pride Month collection in May that included LGBT merchandise marketed to kids.

“We continue to take a cautious approach to planning our business, and have therefore adjusted our financial guidance in anticipation of continued near-term challenges on the topline,” Brian Cornell, chair and chief executive of Target, said in the earnings report. “This approach, along with the long-term investments we’re making in our business and strategy, position us to deliver sustainable, profitable growth in the years ahead.”
