After Nordstrom pulled Ms. Trump’s products, many people opposed to Mr. Trump cheered the decision.
“And anyone who attacks him, I try to defend.”
Nordstrom said that Ms. Trump’s products were simply not selling well, and that remaining inventory would still be available in some physical stores.
“In recent days, we’ve seen our brand swept into the political fray, becoming collateral damage in others’ efforts to advance agendas unrelated
to what we do, which is produce accessible, solution-oriented products for our loyal customers,” the brand said in a statement.
Now people are boycotting Nordstrom for another reason: The store said it would not sell her products.
A couple of weeks ago, people boycotted Nordstrom for one reason: The department store sold Ivanka Trump products.
But many of these companies — like L. L.
Bean and Macy’s — still find themselves in the eye of a social media storm.
Some major companies, including Macy’s, the country’s largest department store, still sell Ms. Trump’s shoes, handbags and clothes.
“Now they have a different chapter on how to deal with a tweet from the president.”
Calls or emails sent to a half-dozen of the country’s largest department stores about how they are handling
Ms. Trump’s products, for example, resulted in either no comment or carefully neutral statements.
The “boycott Nordstrom” movement instantly changed political direction after the department store scrubbed Ms. Trump’s name from its site last week.
