You are right conclusive data is not in yet so I have to give you that. We will see just look at Macy's, Target, and the NFL. For some reason when the political right decides to boycott they mean it and they stick to it. The political right when it does activate (which they are slow to do) tends to be more that slacktivism and have a bit more follow through.
The thing you have to remember is the victories of the political right do not get front page coverage the political left can't report on it and let the political right know there true power as people power movement. For example look at the NFL and all the hemming and hawing over the ratings and them being unwilling to discuss the elephant in the room.
I do know this house hold will not be making rice crispy treat for this Christmas season and I know I am not the only one.

hahahaha ok sure. NFL ratings have been recovering post election. Up year over year for thanksgiving. Thanksgiving game was most watched tv show this year behind game 7. Target stock is doing just fine. Best place to shop now that the idiots are gone.
It looks more like Macy's stock corrected along with it's rivals who saw a downturn in price at the same time. On a five-year average, Macy's is still outperforming its rivals.
But I am not surprised you idiots can't be bothered to do any kind of critical thinking and just believe whatever the right wing nutjobs tell you. Jesus fucking Christ do you homework.
