Here's how all of this started:
Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis criticized President Trump for his handling of the Charlottsville protest and told fans who side with the President to stay out of his businesses.
Lemonis he's "horrified" by what he's seen coming out of the White House. He then went one step further:
"There's no doubt that there is probably not many consumers in this country today that are in favor of what has been said in the last couple days and if they are, quite frankly, don't shop at my business," Lemonis said on CNBC's "The Profit." Here as his full remarks:
