Most of their stuff is out of my price range, but I do shop their sales racks for nice work clothes. I'll be making it a point to check those racks a bit more often now. And at the very least I'll drop by their coffee bar for a latte.

I was delighted to hear that after TFO's first tweet about Nordstrom's cruelty to his daughter, Nordstrom stock went up 4%.

Seems to me you can spin this either way.
quote: The tweet, which was sent by Mr Trump's @realDonaldTrump account, was then retweeted by the official @POTUS account.
Shares in the retailer briefly fell 0.7%, before rising later in the day.

Well, you can't prove that the path of virtue is easy from the Bible. Look what happened to St. Paul.

The second were the writers of the new series of 'Homeland' who bet on having a female President.

Ah, but I think the writers of "Homeland" were hedging their bets. The new POTUS is a woman, but she has isolationist tendencies and is no friend of the CIA. Quite clever really.

It would seem that Kellyanne has disappeared, and the New Yorker - no fake news here - is making the most of it.

Maybe this is implied in your post, and I'm missing it...but that piece is satire, FYI.

Er.... yes, thank you. That's what Borowitz does. He's very good at it.

Ok. Mentioned it because some people don't get that it's satire, and you said "not fake news", so...
Carry on.
