\"Listen<\/a> <\/p>\n

\n

The sore losers have been dealt another blow. A politically-inspired boycott of Ivanka Trump\u2019s product line is not going well.<\/p>\n

Over the long Thanksgiving weekend, a major retailer announced it wants no part of that. Pete Nordstrom — co-president of the chain that bears his name — sent an email to employees, dismissing the idea of joining the left\u2019s boycott.<\/p>\n

Mr. Nordstrom said some customers were threatening to boycott the store if it continued to carry the her line. He said other customers — said they\u2019d boycott if Ivanka\u2019s goods were dropped.<\/p>\n

So he explained Nordstrom\u2019s decision-making process: “Every single brand we offer is evaluated on their results — if people don\u2019t buy it, we won\u2019t sell it.” The goal, he said, is “to treat all our customers with respect,” and to be “agnostic about politics.” In other words, politics isn\u2019t part of the business decision at Nordstroms. <\/p>\n

\"small\"Well, it\u2019s about time! This is “the old normal.” It\u2019s exactly what America used to be — and not just in retail sales. Years ago, political protest movements by athletes at sporting events, for instance, wouldn\u2019t have been tolerated. You could take the family to a concert — or a Broadway play — and just enjoy it. Without being lectured to � by a bunch of ill-informed leftists, who haven\u2019t even registered to vote! <\/p>\n

It was understood by everyone: you don\u2019t risk offending the customers — they come first.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s hope this is a sign that U.S. companies are bringing back common sense. It\u2019s the way to make American business great again! One of the ways, and we\u2019re all for it here. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
