President Trump is now upping the ante on his attack tweets, finally taking to the @POTUS Twitter account to retweet himself attacking clothing chain Nordstrom for dropping daughter Ivanka Trump's clothing line.
Late Wednesday morning, Trump sent a tweet from his personal account slamming Nordstrom for treating Ivanka "unfairly."
My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom . She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!

I've written before about the political brilliance of President Donald Trump's public tussling with companies.
Principled conservatives may fret about the government getting too involved in corporate decisionmaking. But when the president gets on the phone and demands that CEOs produce their products in America, or stop charging taxpayers so much for fighter jets, he's sending a popular message that he's fighting for regular people.
However.
This shtick will become much less effective if he is seen using the bully pulpit of the presidency not to demand that companies give a fair shake to workers or taxpayers, but that they do favors for his family.
And so inevitably, Trump took to Twitter today to harangue Nordstrom about their decision to drop his daughter's fashion line:

My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom . She is a great person -- always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!
(Nordstrom, for its part, says they dropped Ivanka's line "based on the brand's performance." Sad!)
There are all sorts of areas for concern about conflict of interest and self-dealing between Trump's public duties and his family's business interests. But this is the first time during his presidency that Trump has actually scolded a company for failing to do business with his family.
You can expect to see this thrown back in Trump's face the next time he pulls his Corporate Avenger bit — exactly whose interests is he looking out for when he slaps around corporate America?

As President Donald Trump's actions continue to inspire protests across the country, his daughter Ivanka has become a popular target of activists encouraging people to boycott retailers selling her products.
A handful of companies including Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Shoes.com have dropped Ivanka Trump's fashion line since the anti-Trump boycott movement #GrabYourWallet launched on social media in October.
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump weighed in , saying Nordstrom's treatment of his daughter is "unfair."
Here's a list of the companies that have dropped Ivanka Trump's fashion line so far.
Nordstrom Jeff Schear/Getty Images Nordstrom that it stopped carrying Ivanka Trump's brand because of declining sales.
"Each year we cut about 10% [of brands carried] and refresh our assortment with about the same amount," a Nordstrom representative told Business Insider. "In this case, based on the brand's performance, we've decided not to buy it for this season."
Nordstrom became one of the main targets of the anti-Trump boycotts after a shopper's open letter to the retailer went viral in October. The letter called Ivanka Trump's brand "toxic" and demanded Nordstrom stop selling it.

Neiman Marcus appears to have cut ties with Ivanka Trump's fashion brand.
Fifteen products from Trump's jewelry line were available on the retailer's website as recently as the end of January.
Now, the products have disappeared.
Neiman Marcus did not respond to multiple requests for comment on why Trump's products were no longer available.
Shoes.com AP
Shoes.com, a Canadian online shoe store, ditched Ivanka Trump's shoe line in November.
The company said it was removing the Trump line in response to calls for a boycott against the brand.
"We understand and your voices have been heard," the company said in a tweet, which was later deleted. "We have removed the products from our website."
Shoes.com told Fast Company that the shoes weren't selling well .

President Donald Trump lashed out at Nordstrom on Wednesday for dropping his daughter Ivanka's fashion line.
"My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by Nordstrom," Trump tweeted. "She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!"
White House press secretary Sean Spicer backed up Trump's statement on Wednesday, saying Nordstrom's decision was a "direct attack on his policies and [Ivanka Trump's] name."
Nordstrom said last week that the brand's declining sales led to its decision.
"Each year we cut about 10% [of brands carried] and refresh our assortment with about the same amount," a Nordstrom representative told Business Insider . "In this case, based on the brand's performance we've decided not to buy it for this season."
The retailer dropped Ivanka's line amid calls for a boycott of retailers that carry Trump products.

In the days after Nordstrom's decision, other retailers including Neiman Marcus and Belk also stopped selling Ivanka's fashion line , which includes women's clothing, shoes, and accessories.
A representative from Ivanka's business said last week that sales are increasing despite the boycotts.
"The Ivanka Trump brand continues to expand across categories and distribution with increased customer support, leading us to experience significant year-over-year revenue growth in 2016," Rosemary Young, a senior director of marketing, told Business Insider in a statement on Friday.
