I never watch America's Funniest Home Videos because of their cringworthy cruelty to little kids. So, could you please...

I can start shopping at Boston Proper again! I found a few of her dresses in their catalog about a year ago and told them I would not spend one more penny with them until they cancelled her.

I then shared that with a bunch of other women.

And - I'm betting more 'blue women' shop there than the average Red State Trump woman does.

in any manner or shape or fashion, let alone spend any money on any rump item or any rump affiliated item such as something from the Koch brothers. It's time we put our money where our mouth is, I think we'll find out just how much of an impact it will make.

16. We can't avoid clothing made in other countries

That's just the reality of it. But - prior to 2016 they did NOT carry her clothing. It was just a few dresses of hers but 1 - they didn't look like their normal quality and 2 - Monetary Benefit from Political Appointment.

No Bueno.

Another company (impacts my working life) ULine - don't buy from them. Buy local for your hazmat labels and such. They are not the only game in town.

her products will simply be non-existent. Their philosophical belief may well be unchanged.

bit I'm sure it's because of her moral compass and out of her respect for the emoluments requirements.

It remains to be seen if any of the tRump businesses will survive Daddy's tenure as president. Like the Wizard of Oz who was exposed when the curtain was whipped away, this family will meet its downfall.

FAIL!

14. Swell. It's being reported she wants to persue a career in "public policy".

That's tRump-speak for preparing to run for office in her own right, and further inflicting the tRump name on us for the far-flung future.
