If true not funny in the least. Everyone even his ass lickers should be worried. He's not paying attention to his primary job. I think the White House schedule is published. Someone should be able to confirm. I'm out of time.

I know... I actually wanted to go back and fix that post to read "funny/sad/scary"
You called me out though

Ivanka isn't even really a moderate voice. She is the proponent of subsidies that lean towards well-to-do families and what else? Maybe climate change?

I don't buy that for a second. Nordstrom's executive management is not stupid. They knew dropping Ivanka's line would generate headlines. They easily could have continued selling the line, and just devoted less rack space or whatever to what wasn't selling well.

I'm deeply skeptical of Nordstrom's story. I believe any competent executive manager would understand the political and PR sensitivity around dropping Ivanka's line. I believe any major clothing retailer could have found a quieter way to handle this if they wanted to.

They didn't announce it. It was done quietly and was only noticed as items disappeared from their site. They commented on it after it was noticed. Sounds like a pretty quiet way to handle it to me.

Think about it... if the sales were making them money they wouldn't drop her. That would be poor business, wouldn't you agree? They'd be held hostage on either side of this thing. Making a political statement wouldn't be worth it.

That all depends on whether they think getting positive PR from lefties for dropping her line is outweighed by whatever profits (if any) are generated by her line. Add a bunch of lefty loons trying to pressure them into dropping her line, and they probably decided they'd be better off just dropping the line. Time will tell if that was a mistake or not.

Lets be honest here. Nordstrum and the disgusting left are targeting Ivanka because of her father and his politics. Now you want to whine when her father blasts Nordsrum for doing it? No, that's perfectly fine. They are free to make their decisions, and he is free to express his opinion.

Ivanka is probably the best thing about this administration, she's the last one they should be going after, but that's just my opinion.

So Nordstrom is not allowed to make a business decision about how to run said business? Seems rather anti capitalist of you.

Yet pokerguy says the left is authoritarian. Looks like another case of conservative projection. It's so easy to tell what they really think and how they want to behave based on the strawmen they create of the "left".

Was this too confusing for you?

Which part of my quote exactly indicates to you that I think they are not allowed to make decisions about running their business?

Authoritarian? Did he prevent them from making the move? Did he sick the IRS on them? Last I checked all he did was voice his opinion that it's unfair. Authoritarian not found.

^Straight trolling.

Shares of Nordstrom fell 0.7 percent after the president's criticism but recovered to trade up 3.7 percent at $44.38 on the New York Stock Exchange.

At least they ended up positive for the day. Wonder how many of his buddies profited from the stock swing?

The President will now make Business decisions for any company he so chooses. Hey, at least it's not Price Controls!

When he shoots someone on 5th Ave. it will be a race to see who absolves him first. I can see that you take your pre-race training seriously.

The sales of her products declined consistently over the last year. I'm sure she understands even if her father doesn't. He is after all a very poorly behaved hateful child. She appears to understand the concept of restraint.

I think Nordstrom is going to be just fine.

The list of people and entities who have been "unfair" to Trump and his family grows larger and larger. They must be the unluckiest people in the world; every one they seem to do business with is unfair to them.

Did he attack Nordstrom from his personal, probably insecure Twitter account?, It also looks like he retweeted it from the official @POTUS account...lol

I don't think it beats Spicer tweeting out his password or leaving his Venmo account public.

I guess that means Glorious Leader Trump is a TRUE conservative. He is amazing at playing the victim and everyone is out to get him.

I'm starting to think the man is in the early stages of dementia. He's definitely putting out the 'angry old man yelling at squirrels' vibe lately.

They should tell Donald that squirrels are full of cocaine. There would be some great videos of him chasing them around the White House, maybe he'd catch one and break it open like a popper and try to snort it.
