So, where is Macy's other clothing merchandise made? Do you think it's all US-made now that they've dropped Trump?

Its mostly online shopping. Since I moved to a bigger town I hate going out in traffic. Once you start shopping online you can find better deals & free shipping so why go to the store?? Maybe i would venture out for the right fit when shopping for clothes or shoes but everything else i can find online.

I agree mostly but honestly at $99 a year, it's a little too expensive, even if you get the Amazon Prime movies and shows (most of the movies I either have or don't want so why bother) "for free." Walmart's shipping pass is half that and you can always order online and pick-up at the store as well.

Pretty sure they say don't mix politics and religion with business for this reason. Sears is on the way out too after moving the entire craftsman line to foreign manufacturers.
Not to stereo type but, most Trump supporters do not shop at Macy's. Walmart yes, Macy's No

Boy do you have that backwards. Hillary is counting on the support of Democrats, especially the ethnic groups, who are the Walmart shoppers. She is backed by the lower economic group, the very wealthy who see her as someone that they can buy, the union members, and some of the ethnic groups. The people that shop far above Macy's quality, and the Walmart crowd.

I still think they will be around, they are a department store, and they have pretty good customer service compared to alot of other place. Also I hate online shopping for clothes. Macy's has a satisfaction guaranteed policy, vs places like Amazon.com where they ban your account if you return a certain number of items. Many other online stores will charge restocking fees and you have to pay for shipping.

Is "college-educated white person" now an ethnic group? That's who Clinton is getting most of her votes from.

You sound like you've been brainwashed by too much Rush Limbaugh.

Quite the opposite. Trumps supporters are largely whites of high school degree or below.

I don't know a single college educated individual that supports her, and the stats support that.

Hey I have an idea, let's hijack this thread and make it about which candidate has the better supporters. Trump has the best looking supporters for example. I know that because I am one of them. To bring it back on topic I'll add that I've shopped at Macy's before, but it's been a while.
