Donald Trump Keeps Getting Fired: Read His Latest Responses to Macy's, NBC
No one can stop firing "The Apprentice" cast should've tried: Insist you're the one doing the firing. On Monday, NBC announced it was cutting ties with the presidential candidate after his comments about Mexican immigrants. NBC is no longer airing the Miss USA pageant, which also lost its hosts. Trump did not back down. He posted his own dumping news, which you can read below. But first, check out this new breakup statement from Macy's, via Deadline:
Macy's is a company that stands for diversity and inclusion. We have no tolerance for discrimination in any form. We welcome all customers, and respect for the dignity of all people is a cornerstone of our culture. We are disappointed and distressed by recent remarks about immigrants from Mexico. We do not believe the disparaging characterizations portray an accurate picture of the many Mexicans, Mexican Americans and Latinos who have made so many valuable contributions to the success of our nation. In light of statements made by Donald Trump, which are inconsistent with Macy's values, we have decided to discontinue our business relationship with Mr. Trump and will phase-out the Trump menswear collection, which has been sold at Macy's since 2004."
OK, well, The Donald wasted no time with his own statement, emphasizing that HE was the one to initiate the breakup:
His previous post, bashing NBC, called them weak and shaded "lying Brian Williams." Why not read that again, in case you missed it the first time:
Because he's having that kind of week, Trump also posted news on his lawsuit against Univision for refusing to broadcast Miss USA:
Trump actually seems to be having a blast with these controversies, not only refusing to back down from anything he's said, but doubling down on all of it and promoting it as part of his anti-PC platform. To him, if you stand up for yourself and stand behind everything you've said -- even if it includes casually calling Mexican immigrants rapists -- you are showing strength.
