If the founder of Jimmy John's donated to Trump, but he's no longer with the company, then what's the benefit of buying Jimmy John's to show support for the donation?

There isn’t one technically. The company was sold to Inspire Brands within the last year. However, a cursory look at Inspire’s social media shows NO kowtowing to BLM that I’ve seen, which is pretty remarkable for a company based out of Atlanta.

Inspire seems to be a company doing it right. They are not getting sucked into the left's craziness, and focusing on doing good stuff or just promoting their brands. They seem to support the troops, firefighters, nurses, truckers, students, and people of all colors. If the founder of JJ donates to Trump he would have done his homework and made sure his brand wouldn't end up a liberal shit hole like Windy's.

Hopefully. But money talks. That said, I'll wait until I have a reason not to support them.

Also, Firehouse almost HAS to be based.

Because everything is politics. This shows that we're willing to back companies that aren't woke. Or at least are even tangentially related to un-wokeness
