So Ivanka Trump announced this week that she’s shutting down her namesake fashion line in what one Twitter user noted will be a “crushing blow to the 90% off clearance racks at TJ Maxx.”

In a tweet on Tuesday, the first daughter said she was dissolving her business effective immediately to focus on her “work” in Washington, D.C.

“After 17 months in Washington, I do not know when or if I will ever return to the business, but I do know that my focus for the foreseeable future will be the work I am doing here,” Ivanka said in a statement. “So making this decision now is the only fair outcome for my team and partners.”
Twitter was quick to mourn the sudden loss of Ivanka’s fashion brand…
RIP Ivanka's fashion brand. I always saw a reflection of my younger self in those clothes, as I too spent a lot of time rejected and untouched, in a suburban T.J. Maxx.

Ivanka Trump is shutting down her failed fashion line so that she can devote more time telling American companies how to run their businesses. pic.twitter.com/FXhiLeP4UH

Sad day for women’s fashion. Now who will fill the yacht-to-baby-shower-to-estate-signing-to-occupation-hunger-games fashion void? #IvankaTrump

The Truth is Ivanka Trump HAD to shut down her "fashion brand" because nobody wanted it. Marshall's and TJ Maxx can't give the stuff away for free. pic.twitter.com/S4kpQiHl9k

Ivanka has always wanted to by just like her Daddy, and now she’s a step closer, a failed / Bankrupt business!
Congratulations Ivanka! You went for a goal and you made it!

I feel sorry for all the US workers making her clothes who lost their jobs because of this…….
Oh wait there are none because she uses cheap Chinese sweat shop labour.
Making America Great Again indeed hahaha (I do feel sorry for the Chinese people who lost their jobs though)

ahhh…poor little Invanka….looking like a forlorn waif and going broke. She and baby faced Jared recently told us all in print they made 84 million last year…don’t know how though…they didn’t tell us that bit of info. So Invanka, your shitty cheap clothes didn’t go over so well. Maybe cause you have no taste like the rest of your family. No successful business acumen either. Keep your chin up though little girl, you may all be relieved of needing any taste in clothes when you all are wearing orange jumpsuits. BTW, how does it feel to be hated globally? That is quite a stunt you all pulled off…world’s worst people ever!! Congrats

P.S. No one can imagine what you are talking about when you refer to your “work” in Washington…you have no work there, you are unqualified to work there, and no one elected you to any position. Daddykins doesn’t need your input at all because he is screwing up the country just fine on his own. Have a great day you dizzy little fruitcake…:)

Were her clothes selling she wouldn’t be having this problem, would she? Nice try honey but there are a few of us who know the reality of the matter. A clothing line with slow sales and an idiot for a father whom could cause a boycott of the stores that carry this failing brand has ran its course with retailers. Adios.
tham
Poor poor Chinese workers.

Notice how she suddenly wanted to spend more time “Working” in DC as soon as Hudson Bay announced it was dumping her line?

The only reason anybody here is snarking about her, is that they hate her Father. They hate a secure border around our country with only legal immigration, they hate not letting terrorists in here who will refuse to assimilate and want all of us dead, they hate a booming economy, they hate having all these jobs return to our shores, they hate having so many now working again instead of relying on government assistance, they hate the growing GDP, reported today at a record 4.1%, they hate unemployment rates dropping across the board, they hate the military so therefore they hate a strong military, they hate our country moving towards fair trade deals with other nations instead of being screwed like we have been for decades. All of this, and more, is Ivanka is the butt of your jokes and snark.

Help yourself to some more Kool-Aid, honey.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
No jerky, they hate kowtowing to the right-wing far right evangelicals who are doing destroying the progress GLBT persons have made in recent years. Removing sanctions against countries who impose prison and death penalty on Gays, remove all references to Gays on government websites, Nominating 2 far right persons to the SCOTUS, revoking Transpersons passports leaving them technicality without a country. Shall I go on??? Just go away and troll another site….

Oh, and I almost forgot, they hate lower taxes too!! Brilliant!
Bob LaBlah
Be patient. You will also learn that we hate deficits that will rival the sixteen billion dollar one Obama had no other choice but to create due to the crash of 2008. Be patient. That too will come. Can’t wait to read your praise of that.
Bob LaBlah
Forgive my haste. I meant sixteen TRILLION, not billion.
