Many of America’s top brands and corporations have fully embraced the Left’s woke ideology in recent years.

But there are a few exceptions.

And the founder of Papa John’s Pizza turned America upside down with this bombshell op-ed about Donald Trump’s second term.

Democrats’ woke ideology invaded virtually every aspect of American society over the past several years.

Professional athletes and celebrities frequently go out of their way to virtue signal their support for every woke cause out there.

Popular corporations and brands like Bud Light, Target, Disney, Nike, and many others have also pushed the Left’s woke identity politics through their marketing, hiring policies, and products.

But there are a few corporations and major brands that rejected the identity politics of the woke Left.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has been one of the most vocal supporters of President-elect Donald Trump since the 2020 Presidential race.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) CEO Dana White is a close friend of Donald Trump and enemy of the woke Left.

But there’s another major brand with a patriotic founder that many Americans aren’t aware of.

And that is John Hampton “Papa John” Schnatter, the founder and former CEO of Papa John’s Pizza.

Schnatter founded Papa John’s Pizza restaurant chain in 1984 from the back of his father’s tavern.

He sold his car and used the money to purchase used restaurant equipment in order to launch Papa John’s.

Schnatter stepped down as CEO on January 1, 2018, after he ignited a controversy when he criticized the NFL players for kneeling during the National Anthem.

But Schnatter just emerged back on the scene with an op-ed about what Donald Trump’s victory means for the future of the country.

“Donald Trump’s election is going to usher in a renaissance like this country hasn’t experienced since the Framers signed the Constitution in 1789,” the op-ed began. “Compared to eight years ago, Trump is a completely different president-elect — more knowledgeable, more confident, more savvy,” Schnatter continued. “He’s got a more well-defined plan and a much stronger and more loyal team in place to implement it.”

Schnatter said that unlike when he first entered the White House, Donald Trump now understands the “ins and outs of Washington.”

He predicted that Trump will not make the same mistakes he did last time and will be “going outside the halls of government to find people with the skills and mentality to be successful.”

Schnatter specifically mentioned Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy leading the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

“They are the perfect people for this job,” he wrote.

He went on to praise Donald Trump’s cabinet selections as a “return to America’s roots.”

“I was enormously fortunate to start Papa John’s in 1984, during the Reagan Revolution,” he wrote. “I never would have been able to build that business from a broom closet to a multinational corporation during the Obama or Biden administrations, and I’ve often felt for entrepreneurs who came along under those regimes, because they didn’t have the same opportunities I did and that’s not fair.”

However, he said, “That’s about to change.”

“Donald Trump is like Ronald Reagan on steroids, and he’s putting a team in place that will do amazing things for entrepreneurs and the American middle class – the two great pillars of the U.S. economy,” he wrote.  

Schnatter concluded by announcing that “America is on the brink of its greatest renaissance since the Constitutional Convention.”
