    Not Walmart the corporation. She’s only a Walton by marriage, and I believe her kids own the majority of the store.

    They’ve denounced her involvement. They’re probably scared Donny won’t know the difference and punish them.

    Christy Walton has been outspoken and supportive of the movement, but I haven’t seen evidence that she’s bankrolling it. She for sure doesn’t speak for the company, which is more conservative.

    Not enough I’m sure.
