'Being woke is for losers': Trump mocks Jaguar CEO amid resignation


In the last decade, company after company has tried to outdo one another by signaling their allegiance to the "woke" agenda. Now, however, the tide has begun to turn against the worldwide woke blitz, and Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle commercial is the perfect example of a new era of advertising.

On Monday morning, Trump showcased the shocking dichotomy by comparing American Eagle with Jaguar, which put out a disturbing advertisement last November. "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there," Trump said in the post. "It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!"

'The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be.'

Not all companies took the lessons of the Bud Light advertising disaster to heart. "On the other side of the ledger, Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement, THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER!" Trump wrote. "The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad."

The ad features several people in brightly colored, over-the-top clothing and the caption "Copy nothing." Robby Starbuck, an online conservative political activist, commented on the post: "This just made me want to sell my Jaguar and I don't even own a Jaguar."

Adrian Mardell, the CEO of Jaguar since 2022, announced his resignation last Thursday, according to a report from Reuters. Mardell, a 35-year veteran at Jaguar Land Rover, spearheaded a major revamp of the company under his leadership, yet the company is tarnished by the woke blunder from last November. His resignation will reportedly be effective on December 31, 2025.

The spokesperson added that Mardell's successor would be announced "in due course."

"The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be," Trump said at the end of his post.

Jaguar Land Rover did not respond to Blaze News' request for comment.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
