Leftists Pledge to Not Spend Money During Trump Admin, Purple Hair Dye Makers "Extremely Concerned"

[Panem Et Circenses]

Portland, OR -- Since Donald Trump was selected as the 47th US President, many Democrats and others on the left have become concerned.  They are looking for ways to protest and make their voices heard.  One idea some left-leaning influencers are promoting is the idea of a 'complete economic boycott' of the US economy for the next four years.  They hope that buying nothing for the duration of Trump's term will have a measurable impact on the overall economy.

Several industry insiders gave their opinions on what this boycott might mean to them.

Fluorescent Hair Dyes
Henna Color Lab, a Portland maker of organic and vegan hair dyes, said they expect people to stock up the next few weeks but sales will fall off completely if this idea comes to fruition.  CEO Miles McFruity stated "We are extremely concerned about the next few years.  First, we have Hitler as our new president so concentration camps and the invasion of Poland are inevitable.  Second, we're very likely to see a severe drop in sales for our 'Purple Haze' and 'Deacon Blue' hair dye product lines.  Partly this is because of the boycott they're talking about, and part of it is women shaving their heads completely.  Dark times."

Specialty Coffee Products
Coffee shop owner Tammy Borland feels sales might go down, but not significantly.  She stated, "If this really happens, there will be some impact for sure, but we'll be fine.  We sell more products than 'iced sugar-free vanilla lattes with soy milk.'"

Plus-sized Women's Clothing
Jane Sheridan is the owner of Grand Lady, a boutique that specializes in 'plus size,' 'big & tall,' & 'female style / mens cut' clothing.  She's worried about the boycott and is arguing against it.  In her words, "Well, yeah, this kind of boycott would have some effect.  I'll be honest, though - I'm a lot more worried about Trump's choice for secretary of Health and Human Services.  If he is successful, I'm going to lose a lot of customers."

The jackalope is once again perplexed by the lack of Leftist forethought and preparation for a Trumputler victory. Would the TPC Secret Underground Bunker and Waffle House be this chaotic? No, is the simple put answer.

These free range Leftists can’t live out in the free world as if they were in their own ill prepared economic survival bunker like Schrödinger's cat. These Deacon Blue hairs are in a capitalist split mind syndrome of divergence. If they didn’t stock a Trump Survival Bunker in advance, there’s really not much they can do about it now. Those crazy gas prices are already tumbling down, suckas. These Leftists won’t survive the economic meltdown in the same socks they started with. So sad.

Hmmm....I wonder how the horseshoe septum piercing industry is reacting to this. While researching this question, I came across a definition, on Urban Dictionary, of septum piercing I wholeheartedly think may not be true, possibly:

septum piercing

• A piercing that makes one look like a mentally retarded bovine. Entitled first-world fauxhemians often get one to seem "unique", "edgy", and/or "outrageous". Arm yourself with caution, as they may bore you to death with diatribes about "cisgendered norms", "the patriarchy", and how monogamy is wrong if you enter their proximity.

"So yesterday I got sooooo drunk while listening to the latest Animal Collective album and considered getting a septum piercing".

I'm having flashbacks of Steve Martin with an arrow through his head.  I'm thinking the mentally retarded bovine piercing is the real life version of jamming an arrow through your head.

Where is this money coming from, that they are refusing to spend? The Party™ never approved of them having money to hoard.
