A post shared by Dylan Mulvaney (@dylanmulvaney)

The post was met with critical backlash and comments about the partnership. According to this article, Mulvaney is standing up against critics after an appearance on the“Onward with Rosie O’Donnell” podcast, stating, “The reason that I think I am so … I’m an easy target is because I’m so new to this. I think going after a trans woman that’s been doing this for like 20 years is a lot more difficult. I think maybe they think that there’s some sort of chance with me … But what is their goal?”

As noted here, since this partnership has been announced shares of the brand’s parent company, Anheuser-Busch, have apparently fallen by almost 4%. As a result, the company’s market capitalization supposedly went from $132.38 billion to $127.13 billion on Wednesday, as reported here.
