Report: Sears, Kmart Remove Trump Line of Home Furnishings from Websites

Sears and Kmart have stopped selling products from the Trump Home line on their websites, Business Insider reports.

Items from Trump Home, which is part of the Trump Organization, were reportedly not available on both websites and did not appear in a search of either website as of Friday.

“As part of the company’s initiative to optimize its online product assortment, we constantly refine that assortment to focus on our most profitable items,” a Sears Holdings spokesperson told Business Insider. “Amid that streamlining effort, 31 Trump Home items were among the items removed online this week. Products from the line are still offered online via third-party Marketplace vendors.”

Sears sold 19 Trump Home items on their website and Kmart sold 13 Trump Home items on their website as of Tuesday, according to brand strategist Shannon Coulter, who started the #GrabYourWallet Trump boycott.

...

The report comes after Nordstrom dropped Ivanka Trump’s merchandise and TJ Maxx pulled advertising for her products.

65,000,000 voters should stay away.

They’re basically bankrupt (all stores have gone out of business where I live) so it’s really no loss.

The most loyal customer demographic for the Sears brand has been white, male, senior. They voted 90+% for Trump.

They recently sold “Craftsman” trademark brand.

The Sears Hometown franchises that had so much potential have been raped to the point that most are for sale or closed.

Their senior management team is now called the “Suicide Squad”

Have not been in either store in over 2 decades.

Anyway, I was about to go check out Sears for Washing Machines since my last one was from Sears. Now since side with the Globalists that hate America... I will not be shopping there.

Done!

I don’t get it either. Sears and K-Mart need shoppers from the mainstream...not California and New York. They must have too many boneheaded yuppies in their management teams.

Not a very smart move when you’re teetering on the brink of oblivion. It takes a real dumbass to not realize that the people who shop at their business are Trump supporters. The snowflakes wouldn’t be caught dead in Sears and Kmart. But hey, you can’t fix stupid.

Sears took away my catalog and Craftsman tools. K-Mart took away the Blue Light Special and $8 jeans. It was stupidity swirling in the pot. Light the match to get rid of the stink!

As for Sears, I will go to their customer service desk and cut up my card. I will inform them that as an American who voted for Trump, I won’t shop Sears because of their decision to dump Trump products.

Bye bye Sears! Bye bye K-Mart! Don’t let the door hit you in the ass!

You'd think these fools would read the news and catch on to the fact that Trump isn't involved in the businesses as far as profits or management goes.

But on the PR side it only bolsters the case for him and his cabinet members giving up successful lives and cushy lifestyles to serve the country.

Target is soon to follow with the boneheaded management that is taking its ship into the ice burg.

nobody would have ever noticed since nobody shops there anymore.

Go into my local Sears on a Saturday (formerly busy with appliance and tool shoppers) and you could shoot a shot gun and not hit any living thing. Including a skeleton sales staff.

When Sears sold Craftsman tools, they sold their last profitable sales items. I havent been in a Sears in years. No plans to go now. KMart is not even worth mentioning.

The last time I stood in a Kmart was around 2007. I remember standing there and looking around for 50 feet, and felt like I was in some ghetto operation. The clothing style was mostly cheapo stuff ($8 shirts, $12 pants, etc). After fifteen minutes, I finally left with nothing. It was my first visit in a decade...having been overseas for the most part.

I can remember going almost weekly in the late 1970s, and even hitting the cheapo restaurant operation that they used to have (they had great chilli-dogs in those days).

Sears? The last Sears I entered was in 2012. I walked around at 4PM in the store and just felt it was odd that as far as I could look in any direction...I could only see six customers in the whole store. This was in the midst of summer and I felt like they were just not attracting anyone.

Sears/K-Mart are de facto already gone.

Yup, both of them may as well just send everybody home and lock their doors. The party's over for brick and mortar.
