Trump Says His Supporters Are Cutting Up Their Macy’s Credit Cards

Billionaire presidential hopeful says it’s a protest against immigration.

When you’re Donald Trump, another rescinded corporate partnership is nothing if not an opportunity to galvanize your supposedly growing base of political supporters.

The billionaire real estate mogul, reality-television personality, and Republican presidential hopeful has spent the past week taking Twitter pot-shots at Macy’s after the department store chain severed ties with Trump and his line of menswear amid the uproar over Trump’s recent derogatory comments about Mexican immigrants.

On Monday, Trump — who, last week, gleefully pointed out on Twitter when Macy’s stock had fallen by less than 0.5% — tweeted out a claim that his supporters have been cutting up their Macy’s credit cards “as a protest” against the U.S. government’s stance on immigration....

He is saying the right things for now, especially on illegals. We all will keep an eye on him. Thanks for your concern.

"Proof?"

Certainly. Here you go:

Receipt in National Archives of Mary Anne Trump’s naturalization dated March 10, 1942, four years before she gave birth to Donald Trump.

Pretty sure his level of cynicism greatly exceeds your own but all those yankees are that way.

I don’t understand the question. So this site is to be taken over as a Trump site? It’s bizarre.

Of course you don't understand the question, but I'll play along.

You have been here 15 years and have a total of 50 posts, most of them regarding Trump.

No one disputes Trump has conservative issues from his past, what I see is people here celebrating him for taking a stand that no one else on our side (except Cruz) has the guts to do.

He is telling the absolute truth, yet you spend your time here attacking him and not the message thereby redirecting his telling a truth that needs to be stated.

His willingness to stand up should be celebrated and supported, not negated by the fact he's not a perfect candidate.

When a man calls the right shot, he should be applauded, when he is wrong it should be pointed out as well. You seem to have another agenda.

Again, what are you up to?

So, who is your candidate?

Yes..now..and you trust him. You can click on documentary proof thst conservative issues have concerned me since at least 2000. How do you know Trump is for real and just isn’t thinking “what the hey...why not”.

As my initial post on this thread shows, I don't "trust him" (Trump). You asked what has he done for the conservative cause and I answered. You didn't ask if I "trust him", but for the record now I'll say, no, I don't trust him.

Seems I owe you an apology actually. I don't know why Las Vegas Ron said you only had two pages of posting history (maybe he looked at the wrong name) but I've looked up to twenty pages and other than a recent tendency towards all threads Trump, in the last couple weeks, you don't seem to be a sleeper that I can see. If you are, you're the most dedicated I can see. Posting all the way back to 2013 at least probably more. About a variety of topics, at least before Trump announced.

So sorry and I withdraw my complaint about you specifically. But my thoughts and suggestion about the sleepers still stand for the Boss's consideration and action as he sees fit.

You can love that all you wish. But he is still a liberal saying things that conservatives want to hear.

It wasn't Trump who took the Confederate Flag off of the General Lee.

I think it’s only fair you should say first. Who are you voting for Trump? But if you would even consider voting for Trump it’s hopeless.

I've checked for the fourth time now, I get exactly TWO pages of posting history.

I click the posters name, go to in forum, next page and at the bottom of that page is most recent posts....Jim?
