QUESTION FOR DU.... [View all]

Has Trump messed up this country's economy? The reason I ask is our Macy's at the mall is closing its doors for the last time, in 9 days. Is it that Bad that people can not afford to shop at Macy's any more? Anyone have a Macy's near them that is going out of business, having a going out of Business sale?? I can just see it, all boarded up and no one being able to afford the space.. anyway if you have seen Major stores go out of businesses at the near by Mall check in and tell us all whats going on! Thanks, Yui...

Yeah it sucks, first Robinson-May gone out of business, now Macy's?
