I figured, this kind of political favoritism would generate some complaints. But that's not quite it. Some on the right are livid about the company's innocuous-sounding press release this week: "Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. (NYSE: KKD) is honoring American's sense of pride and freedom of choice on Inauguration ...
