Retailers have begun ditching Ivanka's brand under the growing pressure of the anti-Trump boycott.
Shoes.com, a Canadian online shoe store, became the first retailer to announce it was dropping Ivanka Trump's shoe line last week, after the GrabYourWallet campaign was launched.
Shannon Coulter kicked off the boycott on October 11, a reference to Trump's now famous 'grab them by the p***y' remark from the audio tape and numerous allegations of sexual assault by the president-elect.
Since then, she has been joined by a growing group of women who are boycotting Ivanka's eponymous line of clothing, jewelry, perfume and accessories over her support for her father.
They have also called on the stores that carry the brand - including Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's and Macy's - to stop selling her items.
Retailers who refuse to dump the brand, have also joined the list of boycotted companies.
And it seems the boycott is beginning to bite.
Last week, Shoes.com became the first firm to announce that it was removing Ivanka Trump products.
While the official reason given for dropping the brand was that, 'they were not selling well,' on Twitter Shoes.com responded to the #GrabYourWallet boycotters, saying that it had heard their voices.
'We understand and your voices have been heard. We have removed the products from our website,' Shoes.com tweeted on November 12.
'We want to support our customers and make sure than can continue to stand tall.'
Interestingly, those tweets have since been deleted, but Ivanka's line has not returned to Shoes.com.
Coulter also tweeted that furniture and interior store Bellacor had quietly removed all of its Trump products after the company was added to the boycott list.
Yet while some retailers appear to have been swayed by #GrabYourWallet, others have refused to bow down to the pressure of the campaign.
Earlier this month Nordstrom responded, saying it has no plans to pull the brand and they will continue to allow customers 'choices about what they purchase based on personal views.'
'We hope that offering a vendor's products isn't misunderstood as us taking a political position; we're not. We recognize,' a spokesman added in a tweet.
Well, while I have never bought anything from her line I sure will now! I realize people will say "Well, they have the right to do so" which may be true, but it's still absolutely ridiculous. I encourage other female trump supporters to and even if you aren't one at least think about it, hardly any worse than buying something from the Kardashian line.
all that will happen is the trumps will change the name of their clothing lines quietly, and take advantage of the boycotts in that manner. and very few people wil ever know.
Remember when Chick-fil-A was brought down and closed up every shop in America by the SJWs?

I remember very well. That had to be the biggest backfire in business history. They had record profits for a week straight. Busses full of church goers parked outside. It was INSANE. Yep that staged "kiss-in" protest really showed them ;

Silly. While many of my female coworkers and I did not vote for Trump, we love Ivanka and Melania. If I like their items, I will buy them. Unfortunately, their clothing is not a good fit for my body type.
