Trump Goes After Nordstrom, Claims ‘Ivanka Has Been Treated So Unfairly’ by Retail Chain

This morning, days after it was announced by Nordstrom that the retailer was dropping Ivanka Trump’s clothing and accessories brand from its stores, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to slam the company and defend his daughter.

My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 8, 2017

Following weeks of calls to drop the brand via the hashtag #GrabYourWallet, Nordstrom decided to pull the line from their stores early this month due to poor sales.

Of course, this isn’t the first time the president has used his Twitter account to go after a business. He’s previously targeted Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Toyota, among others. However, none of those companies were carrying his daughter’s clothing brand.
