UPDATE: President Trump has weighed in on Twitter, saying Nordstrom has been "unfair" to his daughter.
My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person -- always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!

Last week, Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus both announced that they would no longer be selling Ivanka Trump's clothing line. Now, four more stores--Belk, Jet, ShopStyle, and Home Shopping Network--are dropping it as well, citing "lagging sales."
BuzzFeed reported that searches on those stores websites turned up nothing when they all previously sold the line's shoes, dresses, and handbags.
All of the stores said that the decision to drop Ivanka's brand was not motivated by politics and that the items had simply not been selling well. Ivanka Trump's brand, along with several other businesses affiliated with the president, have been the subject of the #GrabYourWallet boycott.
Boycott organizer Shannon Coulter gloated about the "win" on Twitter.
To recap: within last 48 hours @HSN, @ShopStyle, @belk, @TYRABeauty, and the Walmart-owned @Jet have cut biz & brand ties w/ Trump fam. pic.twitter.com/mErhSKNnBA

Despite the apparent success of the boycott campaign against Ivanka Trump, other boycott targets are actually doing quite well. After Coulter added the company L.L. Bean to the list, people from all sides of the political spectrum turned out in droves to buy products from the retailer--which is completely apolitical and did not endorse a candidate.
This post has been updated. Home Shopping Network never sold Ivanka Trump's clothing line.
