not to mix one's politics with business. Selling political hats and bumper stickers is one thing, but naming your shop "makeamerciagreatagain16" is just plain stupid. Of course, there are a lot of Trump supporters (for now) who might do business with him/her, but I wonder if it is enough to offset all the people who choose to shop elsewhere.
