Would you buy a Trump brand mattress?
On the off-chance that you answered yes to this — and if you did, please email me at evan@mediaite.com for a follow-up interview — then you’d better act fast. On Thursday Serta became the latest company to announce it was ending its business relationship with celebrity plutocrat Donald Trump following his remarks on Mexican immigrants.
“Serta values diversity and does not agree with nor endorse the recent statements made by Mr. Trump,” the company said in a statement, declaring that it would not renew its contract with Trump at the end of the year.

Why do leftists want to put all these people out of work just to punish Trump?
If I were an SJW I might be upset that other SJWs were going against the creed of social justice just to maximize the patriarchal power of some millionaire in a Rainbow colored house.
“Is there nothing the man won’t slap his name on to make a buck?”
Free enterprise, DoodleDawg, free enterprise. It’s a wonderful thing.
Bump.
I'm sure they are making a big sacrifice by removing the Trump brand labels and replacing them with something else. Yeah, I said just the labels and not the mattresses.
It sounds like the illegal alien fags at Serta have taken over the joint. I guess they’ll be frisking employees for confederate flags too.
“Serta values diversity.” Apparently especially the diseased, the felons, gangbangers, thieves, rapists, drunken hit and run drivers, drug pushers.....and the occasional poor soul who only desires to get on gubmint handouts for life and produce 20 like-minded children.
Serta mattresses are made in the US and Canada.
It'a actually a high end mattress he puts in his hotels...
He and Serta started retailing them...
He name sells...
You can value truth or you can worship political correctness, but you cannot do both.
Boycott Serta.
[Serta mattresses are made in the US and Canada.]
It’s time for conservatives to be the CEOs instead of the socialists.
Actually no - let them boycott all they want. Who do you think is making more money on the sale of a Trump brand mattress - Serta or Trump? Let them proceed to shoot themselves in the foot!
If I were Trump I’d encourage every single company who I had a business relationship with to boycott me if they disagree with the Mexican statements. They detract from his brand.
Well, this isn’t just The Donald list of boycotted places. It’s a very small list based on what Freepers have said to boycott over a year or so.
Macy’s
JC Penneys
Sears
Walmart
Target
LL Bean
CVS
Walgreens
McDonalds
Skittles (!)
Kroger
Giant
Wendy’s
Burger King
Serta/Sealy
Coke & Pepsi products
At this point, the only place I can go is the Ace Hardware up the street. They sell chips and drinks. I guess I can live on that.
Unlike Trump's clothing line. Made in China, Mexico & Bangladesh.
No thanks.
Macys and Serta are DEAD to patriotic Americans.
They support criminals, traitors, and liars.
I notice that none of these companies say EXACTLY what it is that Trump said that made them break off relations. They are getting off way too easy, so far.
There are somethings I don't think should be sold so easily, and one's good name is one of them. But then again, it's Trump.
You would catch the same flack if you said that you wanted to end, or signaficantly curtail, the Foodstamp program.
You would also get the same flack for increasing the right to keep and bear arms. That is the reason that Walmart is going to try to get out of the firearms business soon.
Serta is crap and not worth buying. Any company that refuses to see the truth can’t be expected to tell the truth.
Serta....They’re just a bunch of sheep anyway.....
