Bud Light's Sales and Reputation Suffer Amid Controversies.

TL;DR Summary
Bud Light has seen a 17 percent decline in sales revenue since it received backlash over a partnership with a transgender influencer, which has been welcomed by conservatives who have taken it as a sign their calls for a boycott have been successful. The decline in sales of Bud Light in recent weeks has been absorbed by its competitors, as the beer brand's dollar revenue dropped 17 percent, sales in Coors Light and Miller Lite rose by a similar amount. The controversy has caught the attention of the White House, which condemned threats made against Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch.
