Right is saying we need to change the rules of trade, and increase incentives to do more manufacturing here. You should try and listen.

Yes, we know, and Target's decline in sales and share value has nothing to do with their idiotic dressing room/ bathroom policy. Gotcha.

Of course liberals are now claiming that has nothing to do with Macys decision but solely with other reasons.

Nordstrom was bullied into getting rid of Ivanka Trump's clothing /shoe line. Nordstrom responded that they don't chose their clothes bases on politics.

No Republican made an issue of Nordstrom carrying BLM fanatic Beyonce after Beyonce bashed the cops and neither Nordstrom carrying Kardashian jeans line.

If you don't like the brand for whatever reason than don't buy it and free markets will play out.
Let's see what will sell better at Nordstrom!
The clothing line of the a female praised for her well upbringing and graceful way she behaves or DUI convict Khloe Kardashian and sister of sex video known Kardashian and Beyonce the cop basher.

Macy's & JC Penneys..... They have chosen the 3rd wave feminist stance and are paying dearly for it in profits, with their stock tanked.

You should be less defensive about obvious hypocrites.

Your post does NOTHING to explain why Donny doing something is fine and dandy but Ford doing the exact same thing is not.

THAT's hypocrisy, nothing else.

Macy's dropped Trump because as a company they strive to cater to all customers, not just white ones. Trump was dropped because of his comments about Mexicans, not politics in and of itself.

Further more, Macy's arent mom and pop stores in rural areas, they are for the most part in nothing but urban areas.

As for Kim Kardashian, she didnt release the sex tape, it was stolen. So what you are actually attacking is the fact that she had sex with a man she was in a relationship with. If you are going to attack the women, do so about what she has sad that you disagree with, otherwise you are just attacking her for having sex.

As for Beyonce, She based bad cops. You are smart enough to understand that, and choose to be blind to it.


As for the overall subject. Your side had boycotted entire stores before. It isnt new. JC Penneys is a good example.

That struggle may be true but what they did to announce the Trump tie elimination based on how Macy's felt about that, for sure made the struggle become a huge issue and employees being fired or hours cut.

The Trump movement is making a HUGE difference. We are not boycotting Macy's but just simply buying at Macy's if their price is clearly the lowest or for the same price go else where.

Due to the elections and the political points and views some companies felt they had to input, instead of keeping it for themselves, made us decide to be more cautious where to spend our money.

On top of that we feel very good about these stores and companies making it clear that they rather have liberals buy at their stores. We agree that they can have them!
