President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the boycott of Goya Foods, called for by his detractors after the company’s CEO praised the president at a White House meeting earlier this month, had backfired.

“The Radical Left smear machine backfired, people are buying like crazy!” Trump said in a tweet, in which he said Goya Foods “is doing GREAT.”
