Target Hits Bottom, Finds Trapdoor, Opens It Up and Keeps Digging: Target CEO Blame Trump for Lower Hispanic Shopper Traffic


Fuck Target!

Fuck Target in the ass!

From Breitbart:
After over a year of falling foot traffic and tumbling stock prices, retail giant Target is now obliquely attacking President Donald Trump over the claim that his policies have driven Hispanics to avoid shopping in public. 
At last week’s Fortune Brainstorm Tech event in Aspen, Colorado, Target Corp. Chief Executive Officer Brian Cornell claimed that Hispanic shoppers, a sought-after demographic for retailers across the country, have stopped leaving their homes to shop, presumably for fear of being deported. 
“The Hispanic consumer in the U.S. is shopping much less,” Cornell claimed according to MSN Money. “They are staying home. They are going out less often.” 
Cornell didn’t mention President Trump by name, but he did mention the lack of Hispanic shoppers in “border towns” where retailers often see traffic over the U.S.-Mexico border. advertisement 
The Target chief was likely influenced by recent surveys following the habits of Hispanic shoppers at the nation’s largest retail outlets. 
Retail researcher NPD Group claims its survey shows that Hispanic traffic at retailers fell eight percent over last year. Marshal Cohen, an analyst at NPD, said that there has “clearly been a pullback” among Hispanic shoppers. 
“There’s concern about going out in an environment where you could be deported,” Cohen claimed. 
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” Cohen claimed. “It’s really there and material.”

There are less shopping sprees because some who have fraudulently obtained benefits have hastily dropped them, hence they have to pay for groceries like the rest of us. That leaves less disposable income.

Also, many Hispanics have just flat out left the United States, because they know they are illegal, and they feel the walls closing in on them.
