Does it seem unethical? Damn skippy. Is it against the Law? No.
Never said it was. I said it was unethical. It's blurring the lines and it's a good example of (if you've seen the original House of Cards) "You might say that, I couldn't possibly comment!"

Scoffing at a $60,000 donation doesn't make sense when somehow other donation can be made in the millions of dollars.

OK the point was noted that Trump shouldn't had made a plug for LL Bean. And if you read Anteater's comment it was a no biggie, he's not in office. So why go after a company LL Bean which has no control over the matter?



Nice try LL Bean, Shannon Counter and her minions won't to see that, beacuase they are boycotting Facebook, dah.

For those upset that LL Bean might make money, please grab your wallet and mail it to George Soros. #grabyourwalletandmailittogeorgesoros
