Target, one of the nation’s top retailers, says that it will miss its first quarter sales goals as Americans continue to object to the company’s radical gay agenda.
The company pins the sales drop on Trump’s tariffs and shoppers pulling back on spending. But it is also due to the company’s dedication to woke diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives (DEI).
Per Just the News:
Target’s shares fell 3% before the opening bell Wednesday.
Sales fell 2.8% to $23.85 billion in the quarter, which was short of the $24.23 billion Wall Street expected, per FactSet. During the same period last year, Target reported $24.53 billion in sales.
The company cut its annual sales projections Wednesday, saying it expects a low single-digit decline for 2025, after projecting a 1% increase for sales in March. Target also forecasted annual per-share earnings of $7 to $9, excluding legal settlement gains this year.
Sales from comparable, established stores and online fell 3.8%, after increasing 1.5% in the previous quarter.
Folks, if you are boycotting Target over its radical anti-child, anti-family gay policies, keep it up. It is making a difference.
