Don't shop until after election!
That’s the best form of protest we can give. If we buy only essentials. Don’t go to restaurants. Don’t shop at Amazon. Don’t buy clothes, furniture, TV’s. No big ticket items!
If we must buy, buy second hand.
Trump tried to take credit for this boom economy from our President Obama whose policies began this ten year unprecedented economic boom! When Obama hits the campaign trails, make the contrast stark and resolute!
We do not want a Swamp creature for a president!
Even the DUmmies don't like this boycott.

:rotf: How many times on DU has such a boycott been proposed? :rotf: Generally or some target? :rotf:

I'm totally fine with this. If they actually paid for anything on their own before now, they'll be starved and dead before they could vote in November

Being dead wouldn’t stop them from voting

This plan sounds just as plausible as let's all buy new cars, insured by GEICO, and wreck them. To eventually bankrupt GEICO, and then they can't advertise on Fox News!

8. Have been a more conscientious shopper since tRump took office
Have foregone buying a tv, and I’ve passed on several pairs of shoes. Am wearing out old purses/bags. I like thrift store shopping.
I use vinegar, dish soap, and occasionally regular bleach as my primary cleaning agents around the house. Are cheap and I’m not buying as much from chemical companies. Was done with oven cleaner years ago - that shit is toxic awful. I could go on about big chem, but won’t.
Adopted using cloth napkins before he took office, and don’t buy nearly as many paper towels. I don’t bother folding them, bleh, no - I just shove them in a drawer.
Bought carbon offsets last year for a flight. And, am making efforts to drive less/purchase gas less often.
I don't know, how do you do that? I don't really want to know.

Buy carbon offsets you just write a check to Al Gore.

Soooooooooooooo ........... what brave new tantrum will DU-moron Bluesaph propose in November if, as seems likely, Trump wins?

The only way I see the DUmmies doing this is if one replaces the word “shop” with the two words “use soap.” :whistling:

I've got a six-pack of second hand beer I'm willing to part with. :whistling:
