   Clay Travis called out Target Wednesday for their "Pride" products and   
   said the company faces a "real, severe danger" of suffering damage to   
   their bottom line in the same way as Bud Light.   
      
   The "Outkick" founder joined "Fox & Friends" to react to reports that   
   Target convened an emergency meeting over their LGBTQ products,   
   particularly clothing for transgender women.   
      
   "Most people go to Target because it's convenient and without any   
   political agenda whatsoever. But so many brands have gone left-wing and   
   decided they have to wave their politics in front of everyone out there. …   
   I would be nervous if I was Target's CEO," he told Ainsley Earhardt.   
      
   Target confirmed "adjustments" to the Pride merchandising plans are   
   underway after Fox News Digital learned it rolled back displays at some of   
   its locations.   
      
   "For more than a decade, Target has offered an assortment of products   
   aimed at celebrating Pride Month. Since introducing this year’s   
   collection, we've experienced threats impacting our team members’ sense of   
   safety and wellbeing while at work. Given these volatile circumstances, we   
   are making adjustments to our plans, including removing items that have   
   been at the center of the most significant confrontational behavior. Our   
   focus now is on moving forward with our continuing commitment to the   
   LGBTQIA+ community and standing with them as we celebrate Pride Month and   
   throughout the year," a Target spokesperson told Fox News Digital.   
      
   Earlier on Tuesday, Fox News Digital first reported that some southern   
   Target stores were forced by the corporation to move LGBTQ Pride   
   merchandise away from the front of their locations after customer   
   "outrage" to avoid a "Bud Light situation."   
      
   Travis said the Bud Light boycott and ensuing sales declines sent an   
   "important message" to the nation.   
      
   "No company ever had to react to losing as Bud Light is. … 28% of its   
   overall sales volume as a result of going too far left-wing, too far woke.   
   And it's not just Target. There are marketing companies all over the world   
   that are having meetings with big brands and saying, let's avoid being Bud   
   Light."   
      
   Travis suggested mothers and women respond to Target similarly to how   
   fathers and men responded to Bud Light.   
      
   "Just go shop somewhere else and say it's clear Target is disrespecting   
   us."   
      
   Travis said these boycotts need to wake up companies like Target to "move   
   back towards the middle," because they have to sell to everybody.   
      
   "I think it's tremendously significant because this is how we bring the   
   country back to normalcy, as opposed to every business and every company   
   going far left-wing."   
      
   Target Pride merchandise includes female-style swimsuits that can be used   
   to "tuck" male genitalia, products labeled as "Thoughtfully fit on   
   multiple body types and gender expressions," a "Gender Fluid" mug, a   
   variety of adult clothing with slogans such as "Super Queer," party   
   supplies, home decor, multiple books and a "Grow At Your Own Pace" saucer   
   planter.   
      
   On "Hannity" Tuesday, "Outkick" host Charly Arnolt said a majority of   
   Target customers are parents who are not interested in companies marketing   
   transgender ideology to their children.   
      
   "Their woke agenda is being force-fed to their children. First, it was in   
   their schools, then it was in the sports teams of their children. Now it's   
   like you can't even peacefully shop at Target as a family," said Arnolt.   
      
   OutKick host Tomi Lahren agreed, saying the "Pride" merchandise had been   
   moved to the back at her local Target in Nashville.   
      
   "We set the precedent with Bud Light. Consumers are conservative,   
   especially in places like the South. And we buy things and we have the   
   power not to buy things," she said.
