My friend Aaron Elstein at Crain’s has a fun piece on the further unraveling of professional asshole Donald Trump.
Macy’s has become the latest corporate giant to part ways with Donald Trump.
The retailer said Wednesday that it would stop selling the Donald Trump line of menswear on its shelves since 2004, saying it was “disappointed and distressed” by the presidential candidate’s recent remarks about Mexican immigrants.
The New York-based retailer’s move comes two days after NBCUniversal said it would no longer broadcast the Miss USA or other beauty pageants owned by Mr. Trump. Four days earlier, Spanish-language network Univision bid Mr. Trump adios.
In just one speech, Trump managed to alienate Hispanics and do serious damage to his own financial interests. Let’s agree that he should not even be near the White House for a tour.
Serious candidates or at least mentally stable adults would have had a sit-down with leaders of the Hispanic community where he made amends and tried to move on from this. Instead Trump just doubles down. I can’t immediately think of a declared presidential candidate who torched his path to the White House so quickly and completely: New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, Florida… I could probably beat him in those states now.

It’s just like his feud with Rosie O’Donnell, and probably many others of which I’m unaware. Kudos, Stephen, for coming up with the definitive Donald Trump handle: professional asshole.
