The downfall - the American Citizens who work for Macy's - take the fall as well.
The market share and jobs will go elsewhere.

Hey Macy's .. The First Amendment never goes out of style.
How did Macy's attack the first amendment? It just seems the free market is working in this situation.

2. That he was really big on universal health care. That he was really opposed to universal health care.

3. I can't remember what the third one was.

That man will say anything, and then simply deny he said it, even when they playback his previous comments.
I saw that too. They went back to interviews as far back as 1999. People can change their minds about things. I have changed my views over time.

This is the risk of playing politics as a business. Best to stay out of politics.

Lol. Because TMZ says so?

"Sources connected to the department store tell TMZ..."

I'm thinking their source is Ivanka Trump.

Well, I am not that source but I live close to a high-end shopping area and Macy's was PACKED when I tried to walk though it this week-end.

I am not a trump supporter but I think trying to punish a person for speech is terrible thing for the country going forward.
