The premise that everyone in this country is entitled to their own opinion and political beliefs no longer hold true.
After a Miami Dolphins player tried to shame Dolphins owner Steven Ross for holding a Trump fundraiser later this month, Ross hit back.
Ross stated, “I have always been an active participant in the democratic process.
“I have known Donald Trump for 40 years, and while we agree on some issues, we strongly disagree on many others and I have never been bashful about expressing my opinions.”
Ross further stated the reason he is supporting Trump is that he likes to “engage directly and support the things I deeply care about.”
Liberals Lash Out
After Stills made his Twitter post, several of Hollywood’s finest jumped on the bandwagon in an effort to hurt some of Ross’ other investments.
He has a small interest in Soul Cycle as well as an interest in Equinox, which most liberals targeted in their attacks against Ross.
Hey @Equinox – what’s your policy for canceling memberships once a member finds out your owner is enabling racism and mass murder?

Eichner actually went on to insinuate Ross was a Nazi…
Never thought I’d have to ask this but ….
Do Nazis own Crunch?

Christine Teigen also went after Ross, even offering to hold workout session for anyone that wanted to cancel their memberships…
everyone who cancels their equinox and soul cycle memberships, meet me at the library. bring weights

Far-left winter Michael Moore also chimed in, stating he was going to immediately cancel his Soul Cycle membership.
However, it is unlikely Moore had a membership, let alone ever sweating over anything other than a plate of pasta.
Dan Rather even took a shot at Ross, silently encouraging people to boycott Ross’ businesses…
So Stephen Ross, the owner of SoulCycle, the Miami Dolphins, and Equinox Fitness is hosting a big fundraiser for Trump. Many of his customers aren't happy. People can't vote out the president at the ballot box until next November. Will they vote with their pocketbooks sooner?
— Dan Rather (@DanRather) August 7, 2019
Both Soul Cycle and Equinox have disavowed themselves from the fundraiser, trying to distance the businesses from Ross.

If liberals want to protest against these businesses, more power to them, but I hope conservatives take note and support not only Ross and his businesses but also act in a like manner against businesses that are opposed to Trump or that bow to the liberal pressure, such as Nike.
If people like Dan Rather want to suggest voters make these businesses rethink their associations, we can do the same.
