Would be interesting to find out if any of these women actually owned any of ivanka's stuff prior to going after nordstroms.... I doubt they did.

 

Of course not and I doubt any of this forum's Trump supporters have spent a dime on any kind of Trump product, with the exception of a Chinese made red baseball cap.

For all the blustering support Trump has from America's middle and working class white people, he's never viewed them as his customers. They don't have the spending power. Your average sign toting Tea Partier would sleep in his car before he would shell out $750 for one night in a Trump hotel. A Trump condo? Get real.

These days, retail merchandise is a tough business. Margins are thinner than ever in history and any item which is not covering its expenses is not going to stick around. If Ivanka's jewelry was pulling its own weight, it would still be for sale. Nordstrom had to know what the political blow back would be and figured that into their decision. As Don Corleone said, "It's business."

 

You are still being partisan about this Clarise!

In a two party election if one side colludes with a foreign power to discredit the other side and wins the election..........Is that treason??

Thinskin

 

Who gives a rat's fuck?

 

If you noticed, they didn't say they were going to buy Ivanka's stuff. They were supporting Dillard's for not dropping Ivanka's line, which Nordstrom did apparently not due to bad sales numbers, but because of the bitch from Grab Your Wallet who has nothing better to do than try and ruin the Trump name. What the fuck did Ivanka ever do to her? I'll bet she never met Ivanka, but the bitch wants to ruin her anyway.

 

Not only are you willfully ignoring the point, it makes one question your general intelligence in not being able to understand the point I made.

Just so you get it, if none of these people ever owned any of her products before these protests, then their actions are purely political.

But hey, why not call me a few names... Might make you feel better.

 

Cuz the women who are boycotting Nordstrom to get them to drop Ivanka's line AREN'T purely political,right? Or should I say "left"?

Oh, you mean like "cunt"? Nah. That's the word you use against conservative women on this site when you can't make an argument.

 

Um... Yeah...

 

So, you think that nordstroms is lying when they say the cut the product line because of poor sales... Maybe you need to prove that they are lying!

 

See I knew you were just making shit up again out of pure desperation.

Yes because everything has to be some great George Soros funded conspiracy.

It is literally laughable by this point.

 

Better yet, why would GrabYourWallet be boycotting a company to drop Ivanka's lines if sales are so bad?

A Brief History of the #GrabYourWallet Movement

The #GrabYourWallet boycott began October 11, 2016 in the wake of the Trump Tapes when a brand strategist and a grandmother simultaneously realized they could no longer in good conscience shop at retailers that do business with the Trump family. Never having met, Shannon Coulter and Sue Atencio joined forces and announced on Twitter they'd be boycotting any retailer that carried Trump products, with the goal of motivating those companies on the list to stop doing business with the Trump family. They published a short list of such retailers later that same evening and on October 14th, Shannon introduced the #GrabYourWallet hashtag -- both as a response to Donald Trump's infamous hot mic remark and a reference to women's epic consumer power. The hashtag and the movement exploded on social media and has been viewed over 700 million times. Since then, the #GrabYourWallet boycott has grown into a movement and central resource for the flexing of consumer power in favor of a more respectful and inclusive society. It's been reported on by The New York Times, Vogue, Washington Post, The Guardian, Cosmopolitan, CNN, MSNBC, Nightline, and BBC among many other media outlets (see below). Notable figures who have amplified or supported the movement include Don Cheadle, Greg Louganis, Lucy Lawless, Roseanne Cash, Neko Case, Joyce Carol Oates, Robert Reich, Pam Grier, and Ben Cohen (of Ben & Jerry's). /// To get in touch, send an email to shannon (at) grabyourwallet (dot) org.

 

There's really nothing any Trump supporter can do, but find a wealthy person and persuaded them to buy some of Ivanka's jewelry. That's the best to hope for.

Just buying something from Dillards is not sufficient. It has to be an Ivanka piece. An increase in overall sales without a matched rise in Trump branded stuff, only makes Ivanka's stuff weaker. If Ivanka's sales at Dillards start lag, they'll drop the line too. It will be even easier, since Nordstrom has taken most of the heat.

 

Could it be because they do not have access to nordstroms internal data on what things are selling?

Don't be naive!

 

see what you did not refute what I said....

In retail Christmas and winter is ordered in the summer...

fall is ordered in the spring

spring was ordered in the fall.....and now they are pulling the spring line up...
so it was order......

no big deal I am waiting for the new line of Trump Hotels.....

The Trump Presidential Suites.....

 

Knowing what we now know, Trump likely has those suits planned for the East, and West wings of the White House! LOL

 

I posted this as a comment but it will probably not be seen.

The national Emerson College poll was conducted February 5-6 under the Supervision of Professor Spencer Kimball. The sample consisted of only registered voters, n=617, with a margin of error (MOE) of +/- 3.9 percentage points. The national data was weighted by 2016 election results, gender, party affiliation, race, age and region. It is important to remember that subsets based on gender, age, party breakdown and school carry with them higher margins of error, as the sample size is reduced. Data was collected using an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system of landlines only.

Does n=617 mean that they asked a whole 617 voters? Landlines only, no mobiles? +/- 3.9% MOE.

 

Most polls use very small samples. And their weighting is a concoction of garbage verging on astrology. And their stated margins of error are laughable.

That is why they're all wrong.

Yes, perhaps even this one. But wrong in which direction? Now that is the question, eh?

 

No.

And what is partisan about my response?

How many leaders of foreign nations urged us to vote for Hillary Clinton? How many leaders of foreign nations openly mocked the Trump candidacy in an attempt to discredit him? Where were you guys when the president of Mexico openly mocked Trump, complete with expletives, and the media played it internationally? Where were the investigations to find out who put him up to it? Where were the inquiries into possible collusion and coordination by the media?

How many international trips did Obama make during his campaigns to drum up international support? How many leaders of foreign nations gave press conferences urging Americans to vote for the guy and end the horrors of the GW Bush era? Where were the investigations into the remarkable consistency of those narratives, over so many leaders of so many nations? Did anyone look into whether the Obama campaign participated in the coordination and dissemination of those narratives?

You guys are going on about pure speculation that has no factual basis. You're on a witch hunt. Yet you selectively ignore documented FACTS of the very same conduct that you are alleging. Much of which all of us had opportunity to directly witness.

Your selective outrage is partisan. Very partisan.

 

Don't bother Clarise; Trump haters gonna hate.
Facts are as irrelevant to a Trump hater as both political parties and Congress are to the revolution.

 

There is a difference between openly soliciting support and clandestinely discussing sanctions against military aggression with the man who ordered the aggression.
