I will enjoy seeing them get what they deserve. However, it will infuriate me that all blame will be placed on Trump.

Absolutely not. Every retailer should bail from Chicago, because good luck getting insurance there now, especially since Chicago did jack to try to prevent burning and looting.

Let Chicago become a retail desert. They voted for it.

Walmart is locking down their stores at 5pm here in Central Texas. TEXAS!!! If that’s their response in this state, they should completely abandon big liberal cities. They won’t, because of the financial hit in doing so. But they see no issue in punishing Texans along with the rest of the country.
