Or like the right-wingers boycotting Disneyworld over Gay Day.

Should we mention the Dixie Chicks?

One of the trolls who posted so many hateful discussions prior to the election, seems to be back under a new handle. Not surprising.

It gives me great pleasure that the extremists and America-haters are so upset that for another 4 years a black man will be sleeping in the White House. LOL!

Donald Trump has been selling clothes at Macy's for years.

While I despise Donald and am not a particular fan of Madonna, I couldn't care less if Macy's sells their clothes. If Macy's wants to sell it, fine, I don't have to buy it. I'm not signing any petition to boycott a store because of some dumb clothes.

I still shop at Macy's because it is one of the few stores left that sells petite clothing. Most stores disdain petite women and have stopped selling petite clothes. Plus the clothes at Macy's are affordable and they fit. I can't afford to have all of my clothes altered.

I get better bargains at the clearance racks of Macy's then I would if I shopped at Walmart, even if Walmart's clothes weren't too big for me.

What crap???? Macy's is not the only place to shop. I signed that petition because I won't support a company that uses a person I abhor as advertizing. There is nothing at all childish or idiotic about that decision at all. Corporations make choices just like the rest of us. They use these choices to promote their brands. I guess Macy's must think Trump is a net plus for them. I reserve the right to make my own choices as well and I will let the object of my choice aware of that choice.

I generally choose to shop at small mom and pop type stores and I try to buy goods made in Canada or made in the USA. Many others choose otherwise and that is their business isn't it??? However, I will advocate to them when ever possible to support our own workers and our small retailers.

Macy's needs might be better served with other spokespersons, then. I thought you guys embraced market forces?

What's the name of your business so I can be sure to create a petition to have it boycotted? I don't support hateful people owning businesses.

You support the free market after all don't you?

Btw, where is your "Stupid Righties!" thread when Conservatives boycotted JC Penney for having Ellen as their spokesperson? Do you realize you're a complete hypocrite?

I think all business slandering for political leanings are stupid. This is stupid as was the Chick Fila thing as was the Million Moms against JC Penney. It's mostly liberals who do these kind of things. I shop places or eat at restaurants because they have a product I like, not to support or oppose a political viewpoint. That is what charity is for.
