The power of Trumps popularity and U.S patriotism has an effect. No negative politics against your duly elected president!

Walmart Pulls 'Impeach 45' Shirts Amid Escalating Boycott Threats


With online protests showing no signs of slowing down and increasing calls among Donald Trump supporters to boycott the chain, Walmart has pulled shirts and other items that read “Impeach 45” from its website.

Walmart, in a statement to Fortune Tuesday afternoon, reacted to the complaints, saying, “These items were sold by third party sellers on our open marketplace, and were not offered directly by Walmart. We’re removing these types of items pending review of our marketplace policies.”

If that language sounds familiar, it’s because it’s very close in tone to the brief statement Walmart made last December when a journalist advocacy group told the retailer it was threatened by a T-shirt it found on the website reading, “Rope. Tree. Journalist. SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED.”
 
Already a thread on this.
