MSNBC just announced that Ivanka Trump is ending her "brand".

[Solly Mack]

Her business to be dissolved.

Hey, that's what they said.

[ck4829]

1. Another Trump win

[Solly Mack]

2. Oh, they'll spin it as them being good little citizens.

[redwitch]

3. I don't really care.

Do you?

Nobody buys it because it has her sucky name on it.

[Solly Mack]

4. Care? No. And it's most likely just an angle to promote themselves in other ways.

[redwitch]

47. Of course it is!

Grifters all.

[Solly Mack]

48. That they are, all.

Raising their children to be the same way.

[aikoaiko]

5. So much winning. How can she stand it.

[Solly Mack]

8. They'll spin in a way to create a narrative that they are doing it for the good of America

Because that's what they do - lie.

[MineralMan]

6. Business failure. Her businesses went South.

Consumers rejected her shoddy goods from China and her pretensions about being a style leader. So, they're looking elsewhere for the kind of stuff she sold. She's not "ending" her brand. It has failed. Simple.

[Solly Mack]

9. I agree. It failed - but that won't be the lie they tell.

[malaise]

7. Mueller must have found some

Washing.

[Solly Mack]

10. LMAO!

[malaise]

17. Don't rule that out with

this bunch

[Solly Mack]

25. You can't rule out anything with this bunch - if it's bad, it's a safe bet.

[Botany]

11. +1

n/t

[unitedwethrive]

44. How long do you have to keep records on a closed business?

If the name Trump was on it, you know there’s a lot of shady shit going on.

[magicarpet]

12. Gave it all up because being a good American is important...

.... Overcome by guilt with potential financial conflicts of promoting her brand while involved in government.

[Solly Mack]

13. That is actually how a few on MSNBC are framing it now.

Unreal.

[magicarpet]

22. Cutting Edge Taste and Style.....

.... Remember this ?

Happy Thanksgiving,
Look at the garbage I found on the beach for our holiday table center piece.

[EffieBlack]

27. WTF?

It looks like one of the oversized aliens in “Men in Black” spit up on the table ...

[3catwoman3]

53. That is a hliarious...

...description!

[Scurrilous]

40. ...

[louis-t]

54. This is what happens when a 'designer' is color blind.

Gray pumpkins?

14. Ivanka Trump Closing Her Namesake Fashion Brand

Ivanka Trump Closing Her Namesake Fashion Brand

The president’s daughter and White House senior adviser has grown frustrated by restrictions she placed on the company to avoid conflicts of interest

Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump’s daughter, is closing her namesake fashion brand, more than a year after she formally separated herself from the company and entered the White House as a senior adviser.

Apparel sales at the brand, which Ms. Trump launched in its current form in 2014, soared in the year of the 2016 presidential election. But the company also became a lightning rod for critics of her father’s policies, with one anti-Trump group last year urging shoppers to boycott stores selling Trump-branded goods. Retailers including Nordstrom Inc. and Hudson’s Bay have stopped selling Ivanka Trump products in the past 18 months, citing their performance.

Abigail Klem, who took over as president of the brand last spring, informed its 18 employees Tuesday that the company would be shutting down. Ms. Trump is set to address the staff later in the day.

Ms. Trump had contemplated the move in recent months as she grew frustrated by the restrictions she placed on the company, IT Collection LLC, to avoid possible conflicts of interest while serving in the White House.

[Solly Mack]

18. That's her narrative? LOL

She's frustrated by trying to avoid conflicts of interest?

What bullshit. Like they care about such things.

[C_U_L8R]

15. When the junk won't even move at Ocean State Job Lot

the Trump brand is over.

[Solly Mack]

21. I don't buy it. Sure, she'll close shop but what gain did she see in doing so?

Because there's a gain she's hoping for.

[Freethinker65]

16. Trump wants Ivanka to be the first female president

She will now be seen more often in high level situations staged to look presidential.

[a kennedy]

20. OFFS......

[Solly Mack]

23. She wants to be the first too. She has said as much to friends - from what I've read.

And, you're right, this is an attempt to look good.

[dalton99a]

50. Her foreign expertise is unparalleled

empty as a college dorm fridge

[a kennedy]

19. This should have happened when she stepped foot into the White House......

All business ties should have been severed or put into a trust or something the minute the orange blob moved into the White House. She is considered part of his administration right??? Business ties should have stopped immediately January 1st 2017.

[Solly Mack]

24. It should have happened then , so why now? What's the angle?

because with them, there is always a self-serving angle.

[samnsara]

26. so she will re name it?

[Solly Mack]

28. I wondered about that too. If it will pop up down the line with a new name

and an undisclosed owner.

The only thing I know - she has an angle for doing so and it has nothing to do with doing the right thing.

Otherwise, she would have done so early on.

[dalton99a]

49. +1. Sounds sophisticated

[Aristus]

30. YAY! Mrs. Aristus will be thrilled!

After Trump was handed the Electoral College, Mrs. Aristus vowed never to buy an Ivanka item again. Not long after, Nordstrom (her favorite shopping ground) decided to stop carrying Ivanka Trump's line.

We're getting closer to ruining them...

[Solly Mack]

32. She's hoping to gain something from this. There's an angle.

And not a selfless one either.

[Paladin]

31. Boo-fucking-hoo. (nt)

[Solly Mack]

34. Yeah. I wouldn't waste tears on them either.

[Initech]

33. Womp womp!

[Solly Mack]

35. She's setting herself up to look good. I gave up my business to avoid conflicts!

Look at me! I'm so wonderful!

[itcfish]

36. Who cares?

I don't

[Solly Mack]

37. Yeah. I don't think it's about caring.

[VMA131Marine]

38. She's prepping to become President-for-Life

after she takes over from the old man.

[Solly Mack]

41. I think so, too. Her plan of action in action.

[JenniferJuniper]

39. Sad. I used to enjoy hiding her clothes under the racks.

womp womp for me

womp womp for the real Mrs. Trump.

[Solly Mack]

43. LMAO! Probably still can for a little while longer.

[shockey80]

45. I hope her father and husband go to jail. Market that.

She is fucked up in the head just like her father.

[Solly Mack]

46. She is! I want them jailed, too.

Her, too. Jared hasn't done anything she didn't have a hand in as well. Ivanred - same crimes.

[dubyadiprecession]

51. Michelle Wolfe said it best.

Ivanka is as helpful to women as an empty box of tampons.

[Solly Mack]

52. I roared when she said that!

Funnier still 'cause it's true.

[donkeypoofed]

55. Her brand name.had.changed to american-sounding name...

I believe it was Vicky something-or-other, and a another.couple of american-sounding names, and even that wasn't enough. Clearly the stuff also sucked. Ivanka needed KellyAnne to break all kinds of.ethics laws for better sales, but I guess it's too late now. But only for this iteration. Ivanka didn't go to all that trouble to secure all those Chinese patents for nothing. Another online company of her "brand" will be up and running at some point. If she's smart, she'll choose another name!

[Solly Mack]

58. You're right. She didn't secure those brands just to give them up.

[muntrv]

56. Has it gone the way of Trump U?

[Solly Mack]

59. Probably not. Something is up.

[ananda]

57. It will resurface under another name.

nt

[Solly Mack]

60. Most likely
