TRUMP: Boycott Macy's
Business insider ^ | July 1 2015 | Business Insider

Posted on 07/03/2015 2:04:59 PM PDT by WilliamIII

Real-estate mogul and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump called for a boycott of Macy's on Wednesday after the retail company said it would drop Trump's products. Earlier in the day, Macy's said it was snubbing Trump because of the "disparaging characterizations" he made about Mexican immigrants during his campaign launch. Among other things, Trump accused Mexico of sending its "rapists" and drug dealers to the US.

In addition to blasting Macy's in an official statement, Trump attacked Macy's in a series of tweets for being "weak on border security"

One other thing.

He is not a career politician that made it to the White House only to declare he is “flat-broke” and expect anyone to believe it. He never murdered anybody and was not responsible for the killing of US Ambassadors.

He is honest.

Apparently Camping World is now boycotting Trump and challenging NASCAR to do the same. If NASCAR does not comply sponsorship could be pulled.
HO-HUM

What does NASCAR have to do with Trump. Does he sponsor a car? I don’t get it.

NASCAR has already jumped the shark over the Confederate flag. I know people who are already boycotting them over that stupid move. I don’t do NASCAR so I am not getting the connection.

I sent them a letter and they gave me a phone # to discuss it.

I will take them up on it.

I did what I recommended on FR yesterday to protest Macy’s: I went there this morning and picked out a bunch of RL Polo Shirts, two sets of shoes, a few shirts and ties, a suit and a sports jacket. After the the sales jockey rang up the goods — but before I gave him my credit card — I pretended look at my phone and said, “Get this, Donald Trump has called for a boycott of Macy’s.” I then politely said, “I don’t no longer want these,” and walked out. The look on the guy’s face was priceless.

Very well done.

:)

I gave up on Macy’s 5 years ago.

NASCAR also punished at least one driver, Corey LaJoie (sp?), because he made a comment about being concerned about Muslim terrorists.

So NASCAR is now joining the politically correct? Never thought I would see the day. That is frightening.

It sure is frightening. They have nothing to gain, would only lose fans. Apparently they are committed leftists, and that trumps profits.

That sounds like something a liberal wo u like do.

Yes, liberals would do exactly what I did. But the "Rules for Radicals" is not limited to Libs. We can and should play their game. I did.

He is honest.

I think the wording you want is, "He speaks candidly."

I’ll take that.

I am a Cruz supporter but have no problem whatsoever with Trump taking on the liberals front and center.

The mother hens of the right do not understand that this is needed now.
