Sears and K Mart in death throes and they fail to understand that Trump voters are all that's holding them up. Time to put them out of their misery and sink them with a boycott.

Goodbye Kmart & Sears, RIP! We’ll buy Ivanka’s products DIRECTLY FROM IVANKA’S WEBSITE.

$1 says that 'Trump merchandise' outlasts Sears/Kmart.

Another nail in their corporate coffin.

Has anyone actually established that Sears and KMart could actually pay for the merch in the first place? Maybe the Trump dis was really to cover up the fact that the distributor/s was/were unwilling to extend Sears and KMart credit.

Sears & KMart still in business? I haven’t been to one in years. This boycott will be easy.

They were heading down the road to doom already. This will just get them there sooner.

I actually went to a Sears store recently to get a thread gauge. The options for finding one of those are limited here. Other than one sales clerk and some people in the distance who were probably employees, the place was empty. I am astonished it is still open.

Sears and Kmart are one and the same. Sears is owned by Kmart, so it was the one Board that decided. The media makes it sound like 2 separate companies that each came to the decision to stop selling Trump merchandise.

Not like there’s anything worth buying at K-Mart, anyway.

The only time I went to Sears in the past 7 years is to buy my Mother XXL house dresses. The only people there were a few other XXL people and the sales clerk who was less than kind.

Wow! Management was cowed into this position by the threat of a boycott by people who would never be caught dead in their stores. Whatever company is planning on buying the Craftsman and Kenmore brands needs to wait now. The pricing will nosedive as real customers of Sears and KMart take their revenge on the Board.

The Sears that’s been in my town since the 60s is closing in a month or so, so F them.

The K-mart is already gone.

Sears and K Mart are in no position to antagonize any sector of their customers. You talk about idiocy. It has never occurred to me to take pointers on social values or politics from box stores or rappers and assorted degenerates.

Sears spiked 30% last Friday on the News of a re-structuring plan. Their share price has lost 300% in the last year. Sears annual loss, is more than twice their share price. Ivanka Trump’s fashion lines sales, were up 21% in 2016.

So true. If instead of this incomprehensible move, they'd shifted to a made-in-the USA pro America stance, they'd be heroes to many of those apt to shop KMart.

It's an example of how out of touch the elite (in this case business management) is

Fortunately, these two brands won’t be around much longer. Fug ‘em!

Sears doesn’t know what market it’s in.
Ditto K-Mart.

If you have a broken Craftsman tool, and you’ve been dilly-dallying over exchanging it under their lifetime warranty...drag your feet no longer.

Sears and K Mart

They will have to close them both at the OBX NC. Many Trump voters here.

There are still a handful of Sears stores in the Toronto area but they are fading fast. K Mart disappeared over the horizon quite a while ago now. Nordstrom has opened a few stores here and we will see how long they last. Target also vaporized a couple of years ago now.
