[font size=5]This Shopping Spreadsheet Is A One-Stop Way To Boycott The Trumps[/font]
The #GrabYourWallet movement is making a list, checking it twice.
Brand and digital strategist Shannon Coulter made waves back in October for co-creating the #GrabYourWallet hashtag, which encouraged shoppers to stop supporting businesses that work with Donald or Ivanka Trump or carry their clothing and accessories lines. ....
In addition, it suggests alternative Trump-free places to shop, and provides suggested language for those unsure of what to say to a given companys buyers or execs.
The viral spreadsheet was released just as Ivanka Trump came under fire for promoting a $10,800 bracelet she recently wore on a televised interview with 60 Minutes. ... ....
Coulter also said she and other organizers are discussing the possibility of doing a big phone banking push for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, as well as plans to celebrate Small Business Saturday in a big, big way. ....

I wish I could get my sister off Amazon Prime.

(1,267 posts)They aren't on the list, and our local one carries the Soda Stream tanks & syrups -- that's where I buy mine (they're actually about $1 cheaper on the tanks than BB&B).

(58,785 posts)Those who support Trump deserve to be fired.
Who ever imagined that resistance against government corruption and oppression wouldn't require sacrifice? Don't forget, at this point "they" intend that ALL sacrifice be at their will and imposed on middle and working class "parasites."
Those who don't believe the "parasites" I refer to research true libertarianism. Major true libertarian forces, as exemplified by the Kochs and agents such as House Speaker Paul Ryan, intend to use Trump to fix the "parasite" problem they see 90% of Americans as. It's not hyperbole.
They want us off their backs, as they see it.
