Women Nationwide Cut Up Nordstrom’s Cards, Plan Boycotts After N Drops Ivanka Trump Line
Breitbart ^ | 8 Feb 2017 | MATTHEW BOYLE & MICHELLE MOONS

Posted on 02/08/2017 12:22:02 PM PST by Resettozero

Retail department store Nordstrom’s decision last week to cut first daughter Ivanka Trump’s fashion line has sparked a tremendous backlash from consumers—especially women—who say the company’s move has led them to boycott the store and cut up their Nordstrom’s cards.

Nordstrom’s claimed that the Ivanka Trump brand wasn’t performing well, but industry insiders tell Breitbart News that’s just not accurate. Nordstrom’s decision to mislead the public on why they are stopping carrying the Ivanka Trump brand is part of the fury out there among its longtime customers, who tell Breitbart News they’re cutting up their Nordstrom’s cards and won’t shop at the store anymore. Some even say they plan to return all their recent purchases.

“We’ve said all along we make buying decisions based on performance,” Nordstrom’s press spokesperson told Fortune magazine last week. “In this case, based on the brand’s performance, we’ve decided not to buy it for this season.”

Nordstrom’s had previously taken a neutral approach to boycotters’ calls for the company to discontinue carrying the brand. An internal email sent last November 21 from company co-President Pete Nordstrom to employees affirmed they would continue carrying the brand, of which he wrote, “[It] has grown to be a sizable and successful business,” according to Fortune.

The November email stated their policy on carrying products based on results: “If people don’t buy it, we won’t sell it.” Nordstrom’s statement went on to state, “We strive to be agnostic about politics and to treat all our customers with respect.” In response to media reporting on the email, Nordstrom’s told Fortune, “The email, though meant for an internal audience, captures everything we have to say on this subject. So far we have received many positive responses from our employees.”

My plan is to boycott Nordrdrums also, as soon as I learn what a Norstdumbs are and which direction to head and how far I have to drive to not buy from them. They lose all of my bizness; yes siree Bob!

Who says we can’t fight back using their tactics.

If I were the Nordstrom shareholders I’d sack the CEO for this mess.

We do not shop at Nordstoms but do Belk for most of our clothing. As soon as I heard they dropped Ivanka’s clothing line, I emailed telling them we would no longer shop there. You would think businesses would be better educated in how to make money.

I doubt that we need to be idolizing the Trumps in this or any other manner. /understatement

It might be true. Maybe the store even wants to come up with its own line of “wealth wear.” More power to them. We are not one nation even under Trump but under God. Trump is a steward.

Rats. I cut-up my Nordstrom card years ago. I am already boycotting it for some reason.

I did buy a couple of Ivanka shirts somewhere by accident, though. Got them in my closet : ) but didn’t go out looking for her brand which I didn’t know existed. That was right about the time Trump made his announcement to run for President. Her clothes are really cute.

Just ran across an article in Charlotte Observer saying Belk appears to have done the same...but FR wouldn’t let me post something from Charlotte Observer? Says Garbage site? I get that it’s a garbage paper but is Jim really selectively ruling out news sources that can be posted? Paint me confused.

Just who is the target population for Nordstroms? Certainly not these petulant children:

I already contacted them days ago, and they responded with the lie that Ivanka’s merchandise wasn’t selling. Now that their lie has been outed ... crickets. Nothing they do now will bring me back. Bye Bye Nordstrums.

I used to be a regular Nordstrom shopper for my business clothes. Then, in the early 90’s, they went from high quality/good value (the founding family’s tradition) to yuppie scum high priced for the sake of status.

I don’t shop there any more so I discontinued my account years ago. I can’t afford to pay their prices like the Lear-jet liberals can.

Greta Van Susteran is posting tweets on Facebook captured from Nordstrom higher-ups giving the lie to poor sales. I wish I had a card to rip up...

There comes a time when the naughty list is far larger than the nice list. Now what. We begin looking like sharp chinned self righteous people. Who doesn’t use their funds for some sin?
