Businesses would do well to stay out of politics altogether. Dumb move by Subway.

Who'd have thought hiring toxic, overly political people as spokesmen would have an effect on branding?

I used to love subway as a kid. I'm not sure I have eaten there once in the last 15 years once I went to a good sub shop like Lennys.

I didn't know she was a Subway endorser.. I will refrain from Subway until I hear they have dumped her ass. Firehouse subs are way better anyway.

Subway has a pretty awful track record of hiring endorsers.

You don't think pedophiles and militant, left wing lesbians represent good decision methodology?

Textbook business school case of not knowing your target market. Hubris and execs probably living in big city bubbles will do that.

It's bad enough that they chose her. But then the ads raise her obnoxious score by having her knock food out of people's hands.

It's just an advertising train wreck.

Megan Rapinoe and LeBron James are two of the most polarizing figures in sports right now. Their presence makes plenty of people turn away.

The funny thing about equal pay is that the commercial running now features her he entire time, Steph Curry for a bout half and Tom Brady comes in at the end where the joke is that he would never even eat the product.

Guarantee he made more than her for his cameo to say he won't eat bread but it's just a commercial.

Who are the ad wizards that came up with this one?

They all still have what one comedian called "The aisle of ignorance."

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

worked for me to get me to not eat there. If they fire her and apologize for offending people who actually live this country I will go back to going there occassionally. My kids want it all the time and we haven't been there since she has been onboard
