Dylan Mulvaney, to flog its Bud Light beer.

Mulvaney has become a major Internet “influencer” with some 11 million followers on TikTok. He has also been the toast of the left for several months, and now he is helping Anheuser-Busch go ultra-woke.

Anheuser-Busch brought Mulvaney on for its marketing campaign for the NCAA basketball tournament. And as part of the campaign, Mulvaney posted a video in which he held up a can of Bud Light.

“This week I celebrated my day 365 of womanhood,” Mulvaney said. “And Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever: a can with my face on it.”

“Check out my Instagram story to see how you can enjoy March Madness with Bud Light and maybe win some money too,” he added.

“Happy March Madness!! Just found out this had to do with sports and not just saying it’s a crazy month! In celebration of this sports thing,” he wrote.

A fierce backlash immediately descended upon the company that was only made worse by a statement made in an attempt to defend the deal with Mulvaney.

The company tried to explain that its campaign with the trans influencer was meant to help “authentically connect with audiences.” Oddly, Anheuser-Busch seems to think that a fake woman is an “authentic” connection with an audience?

“Anheuser-Busch works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of many ways to authentically connect with audiences across various demographics and passion points. From time to time we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney. This commemorative can was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public,” an Anheuser-Busch representative told Fox News.

The explanation didn’t help, to put it mildly.

Indeed, rocker Kid Rock seemed to have the perfect response to the campaign when he posted a video in which he not only blasted Anheuser-Busch rhetorically, he did so physically by taking his MP5 rifle to a stack of Bud Light products by sending a stream of hot lead to them and obliterating them.

Anheuser-Busch just might be learning the truth to the recently created adage of “Go woke, go broke.”
