Walmart is in hot water as customers start #boycottWalmart on social media on Tuesday to protest the retail chain website’s sale of “Impeach 45” products.
The superstore’s online platform sold apparel promoting impeaching the 45th president of the United States, Donald Trump. Among the items bearing the slogan are T-shirts and a baby onesie, as well as an infant onesie. Prices reached upwards of $20 for a single item.
Not that I needed another reason to Boycott Walmart, but they just gave me one and solidified it for me.#BoycottWalmart#istandwithtrumppic.twitter.com/WJLPCBIs8u— Jeb Buracker (@jebburacker) July 3, 2018
As counter-protestors pointed out on social media, Walmart.com also offers MAGA products for sale.

They removed it today.
Someone needs to be fired.
Haven't shopped there in 10 years so this will be easy.
Walmart is Wrong and should NOT have had these shirts in their stock...For the most part they promote American values, Family and God...they always have. Why on earth would some idiot in 'purchasing' have made this stupid move? Protests were loud and clear and now they are 'correcting' their Mistake.
Bc their are allot of people who work there
Voted for Obameeee
I would think whoever made the stupid decision to sell political items has been fired or atleast they should be. Dumb really dumb.
Give them a small bit of credit for testing the waters to generate revenue. Lucky for them, it backfired early and in another week - society will have forgotten and gone to something else just as less noteworthy.
1 DAY until TGIF!
