It always amazes me that American businesses think it’s good business to side against America.
I remember the Dixie Chicks going overseas during George W Bush’s first term and saying (paraphrasing): “We hate our president, we’re ashamed of our country — and by the way our new album comes out tomorrow! Please buy it!”
Dumbest move ever. They sank like a stone after that. Their fan-base clearly held another view of America.
Macy’s? They could shut up and stay out of politics (smart move) or they could openly and explicitly side with illegal aliens and foreign nationals from Mexico.
They chose badly.
Trump is a successful businessman — in part because he avoid stupid moves like siding against America.
It amazes me that companies like Target, Macy's, Kelloggs, etc... want to get involved in highly divisive social and political issues, or at great risk, use them for cheap marketing stunts. Its really stupid business - and shows the complete bureaucracy and blindness of their leaders.
You diss The Donald only at your own great peril.
Now perhaps there is an intellectual level at which you may air disagreements with The Donald, and get a respectful and reasoned resplnse. But to make a blanket accusation that The Donald is racist/sexist/homophobic/Islamophobic, with no historical context, but simply because he has now declared himself to be a Republican and is the presumptive candidate for the Presidency, is to dive into stereotyping and to exhibit very shallow thinking. Or no thinking at all, but just reflexive Pa
The Donald is none of these things, and those who choose to pass around this fabrication as the foundation of their bias against The Donald, are deserving of the scorn and wrath they invite. In fact, The Donald is EXACTLY the candidate the pundits and campaign managers have been saying for years that the Republicans should put up, and now that he has arrived in the flesh and the reality is before them, they are visibly at a loss to recognize The Donald for what he is.

All the major corporations have institutionalized “social justice” policies by creating within their organization senior VP of social justice. These positions are always held by some minority type or woman who has been thoroughly indoctrinated in political correctness and they are the activist type so they are quick to strike out with press releases at whoever violates their Creed, regardless of the financial consequences to the company. And the CEO is afraid to overrule them because they are the sainted minorities.
People switching from Apple to Windows seems to have a short memory and forget the part where Gates gave 20 million to Hillary. Might as well just donate to her directly and cut out the middle man.
