An attack on Ivanka's clothing line a 'direct attack on President'
Sean Spicer: An attack on Ivanka Trump's clothing line a 'direct attack' on the US President
Nordstrom’s decision to drop all Ivanka Trump clothing is a “direct attack” on the president, according to Donald Trump press secretary Sean Spicer.
The president, who in a tweet said his daughter had been treated “so unfairly” by the American luxury chain, was simply standing up for her.
But it raises further questions surrounding the 70-year-old property magnate’s attempts to divestiture from his business empire.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Apparently, companies have some sort of duty to do business with Trump family members.

And, I think what's missing here is that the Trump name probably got her foot in Nordstrom's door in the first place.
Think about it: Suppose Tim and Fred start a business peddling clothing (call it 'Studly Funwear'). So Tim and Fred show up at Nordstrom headquarters to pitch their brand. But, later that day Ivanka Trump shows up to pitch her brand. Guess who gets the contract.

Sheesh !
Let's hope nobody complains about her cooking.
I mean, she does cook, doesn't she ?
Or, maybe she has some undocumented people working in the kitchen, and cleaning the houses, and doing the yard work.
