Ben Shapiro ridiculed for buying a plank of wood in support of Home Depot

Ben Shapiro has been mocked on Twitter after he posted a video of himself buying a plank of wood from under fire firm, Home Depot.

“I’ve just been shopping at Home Depot, you should do the same. This board ... is now mine,” he said in an Instagram post.
