Thread: Left Threatens Boycott, Trump Products Fly off the Shelves

Left Threatens Boycott, Trump Products Fly off the Shelves

There are a couple of retailers that have figured out that caving to the left hurts their business. Ivanka Trump’s Signature Perfume has sailed to number 1 on Amazon, and NY based Wegmans Grocery in Virginia can’t keep Trump Wine on their shelves in spite of boycott threats.

Companies like Nordstroms and Sears that have discontinued Trump merchandise are all claiming “business decisions” – in spite of the fact the liberals have literally inundated the companies with threats to boycott their businesses.

Thrust and Parry

Market Watch suggested that sometimes a “resistance economy” can help a brand as well as hurt it. That seems to be true of Wegmans Grocery for Trump Wine as well as Amazon for Ivanka’s Signature perfumes.

The left’s #GrabYourWallet campaign appears to have backfired in this atmosphere.

The Daily Wire reported on Trump Wine:

“The…grocer said that nine of its Virginia stores had sold out of the Trump-banded wine despite efforts to boycott of the product and Wegmans for selling it,” reports the Democrat and Chronicle, a paper from upstate New York where the grocer was established. “Wegmans said midday Friday that only its Charlottesville store had any bottles remaining, 160 left of a Meritage and about 18 of a Cru.”

“All other [Virginia] stores are out of stock of all Trump wines,” said Wegmans spokeswoman Jo Natale. “We will replenish our supply, but it may be three or four weeks before it is available again.”

While the NY-based chain currently only offers Trump Winery products in its VA stores, their other locations offer customers an option to special order the product.

Ivanka Perfumes literally soared to Number 1 on Amazon after Nordstroms dumped it. Her fragrance sells for between $15 and $40.

“If buying a $15 perfume helps just a little in sending a message to those companies that are caving in to the left and their intolerant hate of OUR President then so be it.” Miranda Taylor, Perfume buyer

And so the civil war rages on.

A boycott of Trump Winery products sold at Wegmans stores in Virginia appeared to backfire after the wine sold out at stores in the area.

The grocer said that nine of its Virginia stores sold out of the wine despite efforts to boycott the product and Wegmans stores that sold it, the Democrat and Chronicle reported.

The Stop Trump Wine group from Charlottesville has asked Virginians to boycott any establishment that does business with Trump Winery, USA Today reported.

The Washington Post reported that members of the National Organization for Women pressured Wegmans to stop selling the product just a few days before.

A spokesman for the grocer said it sold products from the winery long before Trump bought it and gave it to his son to manage.

Regardless of the grocery store’s intentions, Wegmans ended up on the #GrabYourWallet list of companies to boycott until they stopped selling the Trump brand.

“I personally will not shop there,” Terry O’Neill, president of the National Organization for Women, said in response to her members’ boycott.

But the boycott has made some shoppers want to go out and buy more Trump Wine products.

“This makes me want to dig in my heels, stand firm and buy Trump wine,” one shopper told USA Today.

As a result of the boycott, all Wegmans stores in Virginia except one sold out of Trump Wine products.

Wegmans said that its Charlottesville location was the only one with any bottles of Trump Wine left. The store said there were 160 bottles left of a Meritage and 18 left of a Cru as of midday Friday.

Another boycott of Trump-branded products has also backfired recently.

Ivanka Trump’s line of women’s fragrances soared to the number one spot on Amazon’s best-seller’s list after retailers chose to stop selling products on their websites or at their brick-and-mortar locations, Breitbart News reported.
