This is going to take the both of them further down.

I like your selling only made in America stuff idea. I wonder how to go about contacting one of Trump’s sons and suggesting this? They could call it MAGA. (If Trump hasn’t copyrighted it yet)

IDK. Perhaps get it trending on one of the family members twitter accounts? Decent chance one of the family members or those close will see it.

That’s going WAY back in time. One never hears about Shields and Yarnell anymore. They used to (annoyingly!) be everywhere on TV, doing their Marcel Marceau imitations.

To be honest this is possibly the stupidest thing I have heard / read in a long time. The products took up a few thousands 1s and 0s on a server somewhere with trillions of bytes of data storage. Why discontinue any active product if you control the search algorithm. Amazon has millions of products. This is a political statement.

I don’t have Twitter.

Not interested at all in social media.

FR is the extent of my online relationships.

I would think most retailers would drop the line. I sure would. This country is too divided to tick off half of your customer base.

Thank you.

I’d be more than willing to patronize something like that.

FWIW, I just wrote a couple letters to the president today about immigration and healthcare.

First time I ever did it but this is the first time I ever felt like a letter would actually accomplish something.

LOL, so this is the Dems’ master plan to regain elected office, taking it out on Ivanka because her dad kicked their ASSES last November? What small minds. The Dems are their own worst enemies.

Yes, Sears just sold off their Craftsman tool line and their Diehard battery line. What’s left of any quality to buy there now? Right now, they’re also selling their baby clothes for 50% off. I guess our local Sears will be closing soon.

Who or what is the Sears Kmart thing and why should I be concerned?

This has become a shoppers paradise now that all of our manufacturing has been sent abroad. Just think, now we can choose between Black and Decker or Harbor Freight.

Even Delta and Porter Cable tools are made in China, and their quality is steadily eroding.

The closest Sports Authority to me closed and has been vacant for about a year; I’m within a few minutes’ drive of TWO K-Marts, and was shocked when both survived the downsizing/store closings. The one in my town, which used to be a madhouse, became a ghost town after we also got a Wal-Mart; while I initially appreciated the better parking and fewer customers, this quickly contributed to far fewer employees. I recall waiting in the electronics department for someone to open a display case and handle the register. After about ten minutes, when half a dozen customers had clustered there, someone from a nearby jewelry counter came over and dealt with all of us...then returned to her area.

Haven’t been there is a while now...

I just went to sears.com and did a search for Trump - looks like they have Trump home items and Ivanka items, but in a quick perusal of the 1st page, looks like all are sold through a 3rd party vendor.

We had one Kmart left. I went there instead of Walmart because it was never busy. Park by the front door and in and out. They closed it last month.
