Retail giant Walmart announced Tuesday it would pull third-party anti-Trump apparel from its online marketplace after the company faced a boycott from supporters of President Trump.
A spokesman for the company told Fox News that the company was removing "Impeach 45" clothing from the apparel company Old Glory from its online store, which allows third parties to submit items for sale.
"These items were sold by third party sellers on our open marketplace, and were not offered directly by Walmart. Were removing these types of items pending review of our marketplace policies," a Walmart spokesperson told the news outlet.
The items sold by the company included a plain white t-shirt with "Impeach 45," referring to Trump, emblazoned in white and blue lettering across the front.

(4,651 posts)Walmart must have at least 10s of millions of customers in the US. Many of these are in rural areas where Walmart is pretty much the only option for shopping. How long could they sustain a boycott? It's like if I'm a vegan then I won't shop in your store because you also sell meat and dairy. Get a grip.
How about this: if you're offended by a product then don't buy it, that's also a boycott.
