Macy's is pulling Donald Trump brand merchandise from its stores after the Republican presidential candidate's recent controversial remarks created a public uproar.
The department store has come under intense pressure to cut ties with the real estate magnate and businessman after he referred to immigrants from Mexico and other countries "killers and rapists."
"We are disappointed and distressed by recent remarks about immigrants from Mexico. We do not believe the disparaging characterizations portray an accurate picture of the many Mexicans, Mexican Americans and Latinos who have made so many valuable contributions to the success of our nation," Macy's said in a statement Wednesday. "In light of statements made by Donald Trump, which are inconsistent with Macy's values, we have decided to discontinue our business relationship with Mr. Trump and will phase-out the Trump menswear collection, which has been sold at Macy's since 2004."
Macy's carries a variety of Donald Trump brand attire, including dress shirts, neckties and cuff links. Trump has also appeared in Macy's commercials.
The decision comes in response to a petition signed by over 700,000 people.
And this of course follows news that both Univision and NBC have cut ties with Trump as well.
Wow, if Trump keeps running for President he might get to a point where he will have to compete with Mexican day laborers for a job.
Now THAT would be karma.
I am sure the Donald will be staying that HE terminated his relationship with Macy's, due to inferior product lines or some such nonsense. Spin it, Donny boy!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, he says HE did the dumping.Yeah sure you did, Donnie. You don't need anyone selling your overpriced, made in China shit, especially large or upscale merchants. What an ASS!
ReplyDeleteAnd now he's saying that he's wasn't the dumpee but the dumper, and will start a new clothing line all made in USA.
ReplyDeleteAnything you say, Trump The Rump!
Trump's response is that HE decided to part ways with Macy's and also he doesn't like that his stuff is made in China. Apparently, Trump doesn't like China now.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, Donald Trump has the emotional age of a 6 year old.
IDK, when my kids were 5-6, they had MUCH better manners than Trump. They were classier, too.
DeleteCan't help but wonder if Trump's kids are embarrassed by his awful actions and the negative feedback he is getting?
DeleteAre they too privileged to understand it?
Well since his cowardly, weasley, rat-faced eldest son trophy hunts elephants I somewhat doubt he's embarrassed.
DeleteOf course, he claims that he dumped Macy's.
ReplyDeleteAnother idiot getting everything he deserves! He'll probably sue them too!
ReplyDeleteDonal Trump is getting exactly what he deserves. Good for Macy's for pulling his clothing line from their stores. He's free to say whatever hateful thing he wants but that doesn't mean a private owned company has to conduct business with him. He'll probably respond by banning all Macy's employees from his hotels because he's a total douche bag.
ReplyDeleteI think Trump is going to see numbers drop of people staying at his hotels world wide! He's not going to have ban them!
DeleteHe's getting his and it's way past time. I despised the man when he bashed President Obama as he did. He should have been tarred and feathered then! But, I'm glad it's being done now as to his horrid Mexican comments!
Hope we see black and brown folks come out of the woodwork and vote in 2016! We need to get rid of these friggin' Republicans/Teabagger idiots country wide!
U fuckin far left lunatics are worthless. If I had it in my power I send u all off to fucking Iran where after u spend only a day, u would fucking BEG TO COME BACK TO THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD ....
DeleteAMERICA
No dick face we need to get rid of all of you. Your all of bunch of far left loonies who hate America and the free market. Why don't all of you go to Iran where you would all fit right in. Your all a disgrace to FREEDOM, LIBERTY, AN THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD ...
DeleteAMERICA
I wish I were in a position to interview Macy's, NBC, and Univision CEO's. I would ask why they have more of a problem with Trump's bigotry directed at Mexicans than they do with Trump's bigotry directed at the U.S.'s first African American president. Not that either is right -- but why didn't accusing President Obama of hiding his college transcripts and his birth certificate for what could only be nefarious purposes get Trump yanked from these venues long ago?
ReplyDeleteExcellent point. I had no idea Macy's and Trump had any association or I never would have shopped there.
DeleteGreat question!
DeleteAGREE
DeleteAw, poor Donnie. Last week's euphoria over your announcement ion front of paid actors hasn't quite carried over, has it? Keep being 'honest,' will you? Pretty soon you can head back to your fancy NYC apartment and stay there.
ReplyDeleteHe told us it was going to be huge. Truly one of the biggest ever. And now Donald Trump has some polling data to back him up.
DeleteThe celebrity hotelier, who announced his campaign for president in June, is surging in national and early primary polls. Trump placed second in a national CNN poll released Wednesday, with 12 percent of GOP primary voters saying they were most likely to support him in 2016. In fact, he outranked every other candidate in the crowded Republican field except former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who garnered 19 percent.
In the all-important early caucus state of Iowa, Trump is locked in a fight for second place with famed neurosurgeon Ben Carson. According to a Quinnipiac University poll also released Wednesday, the two candidates trail Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R), who is expected to enter the race later this month, at 10 percent each.
Similarly, in New Hampshire, Trump's appeal is on the rise. A Suffolk University poll of Granite State Republicans released last week found 11 percent backing Trump, second only to Bush, who stood at 14 percent.
What are we to make of Trump-mentum?

I swear it's open season on TeaBaggers/All things Palin. The GOP is cleaning house! Like many, I was hoping for a swift crash and burn, but this slow road to obscurity has been like the 12 days of Xmas. Something new everyday! I surely don't want to call it vindication, but I do feel a small sense of retribution for all the nasty things the entire collection of TeaBaggers has said that has offended me over the years.
ReplyDeleteOn the twelfth day of Christmas, Macy's gave to me, one duuuuuummppped Trump!
DeleteAnd a Bristol with a babeeee!
DeleteYou folks are just cracking me up, LOL!
DeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteDid you hear one of Josh Duggar's victims is going to sue him. Even better!
And Screw TLC and Discovery. They should have cancelled this from Day One!
DeleteTheir pathetic values are just out in the open for everyone to see at this point!
No I hadn't, but good.

Is Trump really calling for a boycott of Macy's?
ReplyDeleteHe is an assclown!
DeleteThese people have been spouting nonsense and getting away with it for so long they aren't able to see that their reign of ignorance and hate has come to an end!
And here's more breaking news!
ReplyDeleteA non-Duggar family molestation victim is preparing to file a civil suit against Josh Duggar, sources tell In Touch magazine exclusively in the new issue on newsstands today.
The shocking development means that Josh and his parents Jim Bob and Michelle could be forced to give depositions and testify about Josh’s molestation scandal. The Duggars likely will have to answer every question as they will not be able to invoke their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination because the criminal statute of limitations has expired.
The family is once again under investigation the Department of Human Services and the fate of their reality show 19 Kids and Counting is still undecided. The impending lawsuit sets up a nightmare scenario for TLC: if the network brings back 19 Kids and Counting, the show could be on the air while the Duggars are fighting a lawsuit that exposes all of Josh’s secrets surrounding the molestations and how the family covered it up.

Great news!
DeleteWhat are you talking about? He's got hhhhuuuugggee amounts of money. He said so, so it must be true. And why just Macy's people. Serta has Trump model mattresses so we need to go after them and what ever retailers sell them. Lets find out how much money he really has.
ReplyDeleteHe is such a liar.......when the dust settles he is going to need to borrow money from his wife, LOL

Now THAT's soo appropriate! I imagine his target audience in reality show land would follow him. Wonder if he'll trade his toupee for something more white and pointy?
DeleteOh let those leeches get him! Haha!
DeleteJust like the Palins
ReplyDeleteWhen it rains it poors
Actually the "entitled" are just so lightly feeling the sweet revenge of cosmic justice. One of those unworthy of the wealth so given to them is, sir stinky trumpy. Part of the hateful, the ungrateful, the liars, the empty chair at the table. We all know at least one. And Donald is a classic example and poster child of such. He represents nothings with zero compassion, respect, morals, manners nor dignity, humanity, or decency. just selfish greed. HAPPY BLESSING MOON strong bucks and green grasses to all. (-:@behappy.
ReplyDeleteSo, mister "job creator" is slitting his own throat. Brilliant fucking strategy, Donny, brilliant!
ReplyDeleteAnybody wanna bet how long before he quits his presidential bid? I say within weeks. Surprised he can still talk with both his feet in his mouth. BAAAAAH!
DeleteFirst to get kicked off the clown car.
DeleteI'm hoping Ted Cruz is next. He's made too many mistakes too.
Donald Trump’s Hotels Have Reportedly Been Hacked
ReplyDeleteBusiness mogul and quixotic Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's luxury hotels have fallen victim to a sweeping credit card hack, according to a prominent cybersecurity blog.
Several banks concluded that properties belonging to the Trump Hotel Collection have been breached after investigating a pattern of fraudulent credit card activity, journalist Brian Krebs reported Wednesday.
"Sources in the financial industry say they have little doubt that Trump properties in several U.S. locations—including Chicago, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, and New York—are dealing with a card breach that appears to extend back to at least February 2015,"

At one point, Macy's had all kinds of Trump junk. Glad it's going to be gone.

He is a racist who proudly made racist remarks.
ReplyDeleteSarah on deck!
This sick fuck (I really think he is certifiably crazy) says he hasn't got a racist bone in his body! Yeah right.
DeleteLeave it to George Takei to call 2016 GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump out on his cumbersome approach to gay marriage. Takei, whom Rush Limbaugh personally blamed for the SCOTUS ruling on Obergefell v. Hodges last Friday, sat down with MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell on Monday’s episode of The Last Word to discuss the matter.
ReplyDeleteIf you remember, the former Celebrity Apprentice host and contestant had promised to meet one another for lunch and discuss marriage equality back in 2012. Well they did, and according to Takei, they “agreed to disagree.” Oh my!
It actually sounds like the two had a nice, cordial meal. However, the amount of bovine fecal matter Takei had to verbally wade through sounds incomprehensible. That’s because, according to Takei, Trump had just returned from a gay wedding:
“He had come from the wedding of a very important Broadway personality, Jordan Roth. He is the head of Jujamcyn Theaters, and he’s often the producer of many plays. And [Trump] told me, ‘They’re good friends of mine. It was a beautiful marriage.’
http://www.mediaite.com/tv/george-takei-trump-attends-gay-wedding-but-supports-traditional-marriage/
Mark my words, this was a publicity stunt gone bad. There is no way ever that Trump would turn over his financial records for scrutiny, no way...he will pull out and try to blame it on the liberal media, tried and true wing bagger out...his mouth finally got him in trouble
ReplyDeleteThe next step will be for conventions scheduled for Trump hotels to cancel.
ReplyDeletePeople still shop at Macy's?
ReplyDeleteOnly if they want unattractive, poorly made shiny black plastic clothes from sweatshops in China.

How long was Trumps campaign? Three days? Four?
New record for crash and burn?
Donald Trump has had some nasty things to say about Mexicans lately. In the announcement of his 2016 bid for the US presidency, he called Mexican immigrants to the US criminals and “rapists.” Later, on Twitter, he added, “Mexico is not our friend. They’re killing us at the border and they’re killing us on jobs and trade.”
ReplyDeleteIt seems to follow that Trump would disapprove of American companies manufacturing their goods in Mexico too, except that Trump apparently does it himself. A photo circulated on Twitter by BuzzFeed political reporter Adrian Carrasquillo shows a jacket from Trump’s clothing line bearing a “made in Mexico” label.

WH Correspondents Dinner (also too known as ass clown something...hey Tawd, what was that ass clown thing?)
I remember signing the petition, Years ago, Trump had a cheap RTB made in china line of office furniture at Office Max Stores. But they were way ahead of Macy's and dumped Trump's junk When Vanessa Williams handed in her crown over nude photos, Trump took issue at first, then "forgave" her, Anyway, he's a scheister, a circus barker, and a rich jackass. Someone gave us his "TRUMP Vodka" and it turned cloudy. I never once saw Vodka change color unless it's infused with something else. And I never saw it in liquor stores, either I wonder how many other failures he's made, beside the obvious. Good Call, Macy's!!!! I'll be sure to start shopping there again.
