  "A boycott of Trump Winery products sold at Wegmans stores in Virginia
   appeared to backfire after the wine sold out at stores in the area.

   
   The grocer said that nine of its Virginia stores sold out of the wine
   despite efforts to boycott the product and Wegmans stores that sold it,
   the Democrat and Chronicle reported.

   The Stop Trump Wine group from Charlottesville has asked Virginians to
   boycott any establishment that does business with Trump Winery, USA
   Today
reported.
   
   The Washington Post reported that members of the National Organization
   for Women pressured Wegmans to stop selling the product just a few days
   before.
   
   A spokesman for the grocer said it sold products from the winery long
   before Trump bought it and gave it to his son to manage.
   
   Regardless of the grocery store's intentions, Wegmans ended up on the
   #GrabYourWallet list of companies to boycott until they stopped selling
   the Trump brand.
   
   "I personally will not shop there," Terry O'Neill, president of the
   National Organization for Women, said in response to her members'
   boycott.
   
   But the boycott has made some shoppers want to go out and buy more
   Trump Wine products.
   
   "This makes me want to dig in my heels, stand firm and buy Trump wine,"
   one shopper told USA Today.
   
   As a result of the boycott, all Wegmans stores in Virginia except one
   sold out of Trump Wine products.
   
   Wegmans said that its Charlottesville location was the only one with
   any bottles of Trump Wine left. The store said there were 160 bottles
   left of a Meritage and 18 left of a Cru as of midday Friday.
   
   Another boycott of Trump-branded products has also backfired recently.
   
   Ivanka Trump's line of women's fragrances soared to the number one spot
   on Amazon's best-seller's list after retailers chose to stop selling
   products on their websites or at their brick-and-mortar locations,
   Breitbart News reported.

Planned Parenthood Uses Partial-Birth Abortions to Sell Baby Parts

First they sell baby parts, order some DynCorp liver on the menu and
to aftertaste these with their most cherished wine. But oops their evil
masters now have decided for them wine loving women, that consuming
Trump wine for such purpose has become a Virginia state wide blasphemy.
