Re: Embarrassing
OMG--who cares about how many articles of clothing someone sold! Who cares about the woman--let her go find another retailer. Maybe Kmart or Walmart!

Re: Embarrassing
Preference in clothing styles and personal apparel items go through cycles. Fads come and go. Designers come out with a 'new' line of products every year. Sometimes they strike out, sometimes they hit a homerun. Maybe Ivanka's stuff ran its course. Every fashion designer goes through the same thing. Why should Ivanka Trump's stuff be any different?
Now if she came out with a new line of bell bottoms and tye-dyed shirts, it could be big.

Re: Embarrassing
Admittedly, I didn't know a lot of the details around Nordstrom's dropping the Trump line, but in doing some quick Googling, I saw that Lord and Tyler is doing a huge clearance sale on all of her products.
I just think the Trump brand is too controversial for a major corporation to deal with right now.
I suppose that if there is a major market for her clothing line, she could sell them direct to the public through a website like Amazon or perhaps her own company. That would probably be more profitable in the long run anyway.

Re: Embarrassing
Flower, this all may seem silly at first.
But, if the President of the United states, and his press secretary, and Kellyanne Conway are using their government offices in any way to benefit the business interests of a family member,,,,,isn't that corruption?
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

I say let's not even worry about whether there is any corruption at play here.
I read that at 10:00 a.m. yesterday the president's official schedule showed he was receiving his daily intel briefing. But it was at 10:30-ish that he tweeted about Nordstrom's and his daughter's clothing line. So the question to me is what was he really focused on during the intel briefing?
