General News Macy’s Drops Donald Trump’s Fashion Line Over Immigrant Remarks

It's actually funny, but I always found the Donald Trump menswear collection very tacky for some reason. I would always chuckle a bit when I saw it thinking there was no way Donald Trump would wear his own line because of the relative low quality and how he would basically slap his name on almost anything. Also, his line always had ties that had an incredible sheen to them that couldn't help remind me of those hideous prom ties guys would wear. I like solid ties, but prefer matte and woven, not shinny and sateen-like.

Rules for clothes:

1) If the label is a celebrity name (actual designers or people who made contributions to the clothing excepted e.g. Rene Lacoste, Ralph Lauren, Ike Behar), don't even look at it.

2) If they sell shiny ties (sateen) that are not for formalwear, skip them.

Will say he did have an extensive line of bankers collar shirts that I liked, but never bought.

On the actual topic, it's kind of nice for Trump to have his comments backfire, but I also wonder if that was Trump's strategy all along.

 

Heh, no idea why you'd find something with the Trump name "tacky". Lol

 

Although I agree with his immigration views his words were in poor taste and I think he is done and would be a horrendous nominee but with that said he would lose badly to clinton anyway.

 

If you guys haven't seen what Jon Stewart said about Trump running, check it out you won't be disappointed lol

 

Interestingly, most of his line is made in China, the very place he wants to save our outsourced jobs from :lol:. Now, economics dictates that textiles are cheaper to make overseas, but for ties, most of my ties are actually made in the western world, meaning there is a robust and healthy tie-making industry in the west. He should have at least had an American manufacturer make the ties here.

 

Heh, Donald Trump is a self serving, hypocritical sleazeball?

This is my shocked face. Lol
