Good riddance...

But for the record, in spite of all their bluster the Trumpers never effectively "boycott" anything besides the entities they never partake in anyways (i.e., NPR or something).

I'm still waiting to see the grand results of their boycott against the NFL and Disney... Last I checked they were doing fine.
