Trump Supporters Are Rolling Back Their Support Of Walmart Over T-Shirts
Walmart went out and pissed off their core fanbase. For a short time on Tuesday, Walmart was selling clothes with “Impeach 45” on them.
.@walmart why are you selling Impeach 45 baby clothes on your website?????
What kind of message are you trying to send? https://t.co/PwI4nCVAZx

I think the message is clear, Ryan.
Shortly after Trump supporters got wind of this news, they followed in the footsteps of the President and started to rant. #BoycottWalmart soon began trending on Twitter.
#BoycottWalmart ?????? should’ve kept your business out of politics. You’ve done enough some and illegal shit, don’t you think?? You’ve never sold impeachment of any president so why the fuck would you start now????

#BoycottWalmart. Count me in the boycott. What a stupid move pissing off 50% of your potential customers. I'll avoid shopping Wal-Mart going forward…

I've not spent a single dollar in Wal-Mart since October 2011, proud to say I plan to go another 7 years, at least. #BoycottWalmart #TrumpDerangementSyndrome #LiberalismIsAMentalDisease #MAGA #WalkAway

Never shopping at Wal-Mart again. They feel it's ok to sell Impeach 45 but not #MAGA. If you are going to appeal to one political party, you might as well do both. #BoycottWalmart

Me walking into a Walmart hoping that the lines are shorter because people are in their feelings about a shirt that I actually agree with!

I don't know why folks are boycotting Walmart, knowing damn well they can't afford Target. #BoycottWalmart #impeach45

Some were more focused on the real issues that Walmart should be boycotted for.
Trump supporters turn a blind eye to children being put in cages, elementary schools getting shot up, and Medicaid being cut from the elderly, but a jersey from Walmart is where they draw the line??
Give me a break. #BoycottWalmart

Walmart exploits its workers for minimum wage with little or no health care. It requests tax breaks from city municipalities why destroying local mom and pop stores, then raises the prices after its competition has gone out of business. We should all #BoycottWalmart.

I saw #BoycottWalmart and thought it's because their employees don't make enough money to live and have to get public assistance or because of their union busting tactics – or the fact they force employees to work on Thanksgiving.
Nope. Trump supporters are upset over a jersey

Of course, this whole thing was just one big mistake. But shhhh. Don’t tell anyone
