It's about the timing and something called public relations. How is Target doing with their strong vocal support of transgender's choosing their bathroom? Well, sales down 4% while Walmart had a 1% gain. And TGT stock down over 30% since the announcement. And another 6% since this article below came out.

Granted JWN has done OK since the announcement, but wait til sales and earnings come out later this year.


If I was Nordstrom's, how would I of handled it? I would have canceled the line before the Republican primary and put the sales figures out then to show that it was not a political decision. But to wait til Trump's inauguration made it look very political.
