And you presume way too much. Even if all of what you said is true, which it very well could be, the endorsement was skillfully done as to not appear as an endorsement. So am I to understand that you think what Mrs Obama did was unethical, yet what Trump tweeted was okay?

ETA: and Obama wasn't president when the Michelle/J Crew thing happened.

I think whatever they were/are, they are the same.

And Trump wasn't president when the LL Bean thing happened. Obama was the president elect when Michelle went on TV and touted J Crew. President Elect. Just like Trump.

We're in charge now. We'll decide what is appropriate and what isn't.

Wait till we fire up the IRS.

The only reason he did this was because liberals called for a boycott because one of their executive supported him. If liberals can try to hurt companies for supporting Trump, then it's fair game to try to help them. Escoecially companies that manufacture products in the USA.

So stop being whiny bitches and trying to hurt American workers, and maybe he won't tweet support for companies.

I did miss that. My apologies.

My original point still holds. The MSM used a misleading headline for this article to make it appear that Trump is violating some kind of law, when in fact the rule in question is nothing more than an Obama WH policy that Trump is perfectly free to ignore now, and will be perfectly free to change once he gets into office.
