It's hard to separate Donald Trump's businesses from his politics. As a result, some are calling for a boycott of any company that sell Trump products.

Shannon Coulter, a brand and digital strategist, started the #GrabYourWallet hashtag in October following the publication of a leaked tape that showed Trump making lewd comments about women. Coulter used the hashtag to encourage people who were offended by Trump's language and actions to boycott companies doing business with his family.

In the months since the election, she and other anti-Trump Twitter users have circulated a spreadsheet with retailers that do business with the Trump family.

The list includes Trump Hotels and other Trump Organization businesses on its "consider boycotting" list. Yuengling Beer, whose founder endorsed Trump, and The Honest Company, which has advertised on Celebrity Apprentice," are also included.

A few retailers have dropped Trump brands, including Shoes.com and Zulily since the movement started. Others have been added to the list as Coulter and others collect more info.

As of Monday, Grab Your Wallet's list of brands that carry Trump products included 33 retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, and Bloomingdales.

Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Roy Orbison and myself are just shocked. We never saw this coming...

People, even now, think Roy Orbison was blind. He wasn't; he began wearing his trademark dark glasses 1963, just before a British tour with The Beatles. Just saying. But yeah, the truth is his eyesight was not that good.

If the bottom lines of any of these businesses are affected in any way (except maybe getting better due to a backlash against this silly boycott), I'll be very greatly surprised.
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!

I thought he was legally (though not totally blind. Could be wrong though.

Boycotting Amazon and Walmart??  Right.  The impact will be minimal and it appears to me that the boycott is more aimed at Ivanka.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This is getting ridiculous. Is there a problem with simple not buying Trump stuff? I do a lot of shopping online at Amazon and so far have been able to restrain myself from purchasing a MAGA baseball cap. If it's not selling they will stop stocking it.

The list of boycotted companies for one reason or another has gotten so long I don't think the boycotts are effective.

Perhaps they should just refuse to have anything to do with our commercial culture, just in case they interact with some organization that peripherally supports Trump and they get cooties from the connection...
