Since you read these a–holes so we don’t have to, has Malkin reacted to Anheuser-Busch defending its true, pure (inefficient, bloated) American honor from a Belgian takeover by trying to get together with Grupo Modelo? (Grupo Modelo is MEXICAN!)

Just wondering if the ragegasm-du-jour covered that yet.

I’d much rather that the jobs and the investment stay here. At a minimum, though, any takeover or buyout should be expressly conditioned on ruining Cindy McCain’s distribution business.

This Belgain group is known for extremely harsh “streamlining” moves when they buy something, so anything/anyone that resembles cushy or even less than fully optimized gets cut, immediately. If there are huge changes when A-B is taken over, it will be because the New Boss thinks the Old Boss was inefficient and low-performing. Since the Old Boss was a ‘Murikan, Michelle can get her rage on about that as well, so it is a win-win for her no matter what she wants to get incensed about.
