The Walmart.com marketplace is teeming with MAGA hats and coffee mugs, but the company has just pulled an anti-Trump shirt with the slogan “Impeach 45” from its website.

Late last night, Ryan Fournier, the chairman of the political group Students For Trump, tweeted about the shirt (that also came in adorable onesie form), asking Walmart, “What kind of message are you trying to send?”

... It appears that Walmart has now taken down the listing for the shirt, caving in to the pressure. Another shirt that said “45 You’re Fired” has also been removed from the site.

Wal-Mart has a right to carry anti Trump garbage, but it’s good that they’re using sound discretion here. And if any snowflake is offended by Wally World’s actions don’t despair their’s plenty of entrepreneurs selling Trump hating leftist propaganda (ironic isn’t it?). This is the beauty of free enterprise.

Looks like Walmart is trying to be like Amazon and others in most every way. Out of curiosity, I searched “vibrators” at the Walmart site and they now offer quite a collection of “toys” through third party vendors.

Looks like the items were added recently, so I wonder if this will cause a reaction from longtime Walmart customers. They might want to look closer at what their third party vendors are doing.

Let’s be fair in that we wanted 44 impeached as there were so many high crimes and treason charges to choose from. The accusations of 45 is all about “just because”,Russian ghosts and butt hurt over Cankles losing.

As I understand it, Sam Walton was a patriot and would've rejected this buyer's purchase.

Actually, I don't that type of employee would exist if Sam was still alive

That’s because Trump supporters like the smell of Walmart shoppers....unlike democrat elitists.

“Impeach 45” is a call to incivility & cultural war as it was intended by its originator, Maxine Waters.

MAGA, on the other hand, was a campaign slogan that had nothing to do with accosting others. “Make America Great Again” is neutral in terms of a call to conflict.

Besides, if Trumpies shop at Walmart, why would Trump haters want to go there and “smell them”?!?

Because their customer base can’t count that high, they’re redoing them to read, “Impeach Fowty-Fi.”

Pressure? Ha. They pulled it because it wasn’t selling. I’m sure the remaindered T-shirts are available somewhere. They probably dumped the inventory wholesale at close to cost.

How could he be a patriot if he’s African American? Didn’t he listen to BLM? Doesn’t he know that The Man enslaved his great grandparents?/s

Anyway, now that he’s dead he’ll be voting Dem.

The injustice of the slogan “Impeach 45” is that it implies there is a reason to impeach a sitting president who was duly elected and hasn’t done anything wrong. It is a slander and sedition.
