Macy's Takes it In the Shorts...Over Firing
TMZ ^ | 7/13/15

Posted on 07/15/2015 9:54:05 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Macy's is paying the price for sacking Donald Trump, because we've learned thousands of customers are cutting up their Macy's credit card in protest.

Sources connected to the department store tell TMZ, Macy's has received complaints from approximately 30,000 customers since ending its relationship with Trump nearly 2 weeks ago.

We're told the store has been "inundated with complaints" from customers who believe the department store is unfairly punishing Trump for his views on immigration.

In a bit of irony my friend Macy closed her Macy’s account over this!

I have always said that Conservatives can vote with their dollars and boycott these places.

It's the $$$$$ dissidence that will work quicker than anything!! We can succeed by keeping away from the movies that BS 'stars' make, boycotting everything and everyone that thinks they can diss Conservatism and STILL get us to subsidize their crap!

Count us as two of the 30k! Everyone should drop them an e-mail and tell them not to count on your business in the future. They had better hope all those illegal Mexicans come in with their wads of cash and buy, cause us citizens are done with them.

Just sent my card to corporate in New York yesterday with a little note that after 20 years I would not be supporting them any longer due to their political activism and ended it with Shut Up and Sell!

And there are lots of idiots on our side that will still tell you that some form of economic boycotting is useless.

I absolutely loved the way Trump told the story about Macy’s at the Phoenix event….. he didn’t have to tell people to cut up their cards. Just by virtue of slyly telling them the story he mobilized people to take that action.

I doubt Macy will come out admitting they were wrong and apologize.

Just like JC Penny, they’ll stick it to the bitter end.

Meanwhile, Macy’s stock rose today by 5% because a large investor bought a sizeable stake in the company.

They can have it.

Economic Boycotting is very powerful. The left knows it works. Why we don’t vote with our dollars more often, I’ll never know.
We only get one vote at the ballot box, but every dollar spent is an economic vote.

They must not have realized their target consumer is not Paco from Tihauna.

The red star turns me off immediately.
Did buy my wife a Christmas gift there last year.
The one and only time (and last) I’ve set foot in the store.
