Despite her father’s uncanny ability to offend and alienate women more with each passing day, Ivanka Trump has managed to maintain a relatively high level of respect throughout Donald Trump’s turbulent presidential campaign.
Some would say Ivanka has even been the one saving grace for a candidate who is increasingly being viewed as little more than a misogynistic narcissist by many Americans — particularly women.
But some women
have had enough and are no longer willing to turn a blind eye as Ivanka
continues to lend her father unwavering support while simultaneously
claiming to advocate for women’s rights. Shannon Coulter
is one of these women. On October 10, Shannon — a San
Francisco-based brand and digital strategist, called on Americans to
boycott Ivanka Trump’s eponymous line of clothing and accessories, which is estimated to be worth $100 million, according to Forbes.
Some women had been contemplating a boycott of the Ivanka Trump
Collection even before Coulter launched her campaign. Amy Andelora, a
52-year-old high school teacher in Mesa, Arizona, told Cosmopolitan
that the Donald’s offensive hot-mic comments also compelled her to stop
shopping Ivanka’s line and to hold retailers accountable for selling
it. “Days after the tape’s release, Andelora tweeted a plea to Neiman
Marcus, asking the retailer to remove Ivanka’s line. She is also
boycotting her favorite store, Nordstrom, where she says she formerly
spent ‘hundreds of dollars per month,'” according to the article. -Yahoo style
