Boycotting Trump is not as simple as first thought
Wegmans Food Markets in Virginia has come under pressure by the The National Organization for Women to stop selling Trump-branded wines in its Virginia stores. The group is calling for residents and business owners in Charlottesville to demonstrate through economic action that they will not stand for the hatred espoused by Eric Trump and those like him.
Supporters of Trump have done their best to support their man, with Fox News reporting that Wegmans had sold out of Trump wines.
Jo Natale, Wegmans’ vice president of media relations, told Fox News: “For various reasons, we are sometimes asked to stop selling a product. Our response is always the same, no matter the product: how a product performs is our single measure for what stays on our shelves and what goes.”
Trump Winery is a Virginia winery situated on Trump Vineyard Estates in Charlottesville, VA. The vineyard was purchased by Donald Trump in April 2011 and was officially re-opened in October 2011.
