How do you know what he is worth? He has not released his tax returns which would show us his worth. Note he may be a billion dollars or more in debt which may be why he is scrambling to make money for all his companies using the US Presidency.

I didn't realize there were still any Kmart stores in existence.

'Neither Sears nor Kmart carried the Trump Home products in their retail stores, a Sears Holdings Corp spokesman said.' If they dont carry it then why even mention it? Online maybe? Big deal, that stuff is usually drop-shipped from a third party.

I...don't...think...he...cares...


Honestly....he...could...less, much less, infinitely less, hope it fails less...



If I was worth a BILLION dollars AND president of the United States, how much GAF do you think I would have concerning anyone buying my Kmart ties???
Here it is for you slow loons of the right , the WHOLE Trump family cares , don't you doubt that.

Had they really cared about MAGA though they would have moved
production to american companies a long time ago. They didn't care and
Trump is now expecting american companies to do as he says
not as he does.

KMart is not going to sell in store Ivanka Trump items. The more expensive items are sold on line only. I believe "Grab Your Wallets" are making up some of their actual affects on some stores to get headlines.

"Grab our wallets" is a power play and very stupid . Many people will see how they try to manipulate and bully stores to do what the left wants. It shows immature and irrational behavior for power.

They are killing the democratic party with their push for this " resist" movement of a bunch of powerless unhinged people who lost. They should just keep the stores out of politics.

Actually K Mart sells better casual clothing items than Walmart. All K Marts in my area , 3 are all closing now.

Have you ever bought Walmarts garbage? they are the worst.. and also Macy's is turning to crap. JC Penney is getting some decent stuff . One has to look at how it is made, the material, some things are just boxed and the same in all stores.

Home Depot sells below grade. If you buy a John Deere Mower , it is not the same quality as a John Deere from their John Deere dealership.

It is selling on eBay at bargain prices though. Maybe her prices were simply too high for most of us.

The Donald's line has been dropped from Macy's as well.

Why we dropped Trump's menswear line: Macy's CEO
When Bill Clinton pushed through NAFTA, this opened the door for all those factories to go elsewhere. No factories are here to make clothing.

Years ago we had quality clothing in the 50's and 60's and even the 70's. But when the factories moved out the material got cheap and the items did not last.

People dressed much better back then. Today one has to spend big money to get any kind of quality unless you have a trained eye for material and how it is made.

I do a crunch test to see if it wrinkles easily. I look at seams and stitching if I am buying something that I am paying more money for.

Some of the patterns I see , most people wouldn't wear it to a dog show.

As someone with long ties to the textile industry , I can tell you there
are indeed still places left in the US to get things made.
Trump and Ivanka were just looking at their bottom line , not to make
America great again.
The family certainly claims to have billions so why not encourage our
economy?
As fans of Trump do you guys ever ask yourselves this question;
Why didn't Trump lead by example all these years?

And we get it Tara , you sure do know quality!

Kind of sad a high ranking politician would seek to put a US retailer in this position.

Even sadder that a POTUS who campaigned on " Make America Great, Again" would continue to sell retail products made everywhere and anywhere other than USA, USA, USA.

Will Trump respond on Twitter?

Will Don Jr pile on and tell the women of America to cut up their Sear's C/C as he did about Nordstoms?

Will FLOTUS pile on and encourage people to boycott Sear's/ Kmart as she did Nordstrom?

Will Kellyanne ignore federal law and give an infomercial for Trump brand products as she did for the Ivanka brand?
Totally agree; it's lose/lose because either way the store could cheese off half their customer base.


And especially THIS POTUS who will not hesitate to publicly demand they stock his stuff or his daughter's stuff and use the WH staff to chime in.


Too much baggage.
