You’re Tired: Serta to Stop Selling Trump Brand Mattresses

http://www.mediaite.com/online/youre-tired-serta-to-stop-selling-trump-brand-mattresses/

Would you buy a Trump brand mattress?

On the off-chance that you answered yes to this — and if you did, please email me at evan@mediaite.com for a follow-up interview — then you’d better act fast. On Thursday Serta became the latest company to announce it was ending its business relationship with celebrity plutocrat Donald Trump following his remarks on Mexican immigrants.

“Serta values diversity and does not agree with nor endorse the recent statements made by Mr. Trump,” the company said in a statement, declaring that it would not renew its contract with Trump at the end of the year. Per Bloomberg, the mattresses — part of, I shit you not, the Trump Home Collection — sold between $1,299 and $2,999. Here’s a model called “Camino Firm”:...

Rumors that the mattresses had “TRUMP” emblazoned on them in giant gold-fabrication lettering went unconfirmed at press time.

Yesterday it was his golf courses. Today it's Sealy. And tomorrow??

I'm afraid he'll be forced to drop out of the race for presidentin' quicker than we'd like.

Did they come with their own bedbugs?

What other products carry the illustrious Trump name?

Douche?
Cock rings?
Toupees?
Toilet plungers?
Laxative?

It is a caterpillar that will make you very ill if you touch it.

If you see one do not touch it.

There are spikes under that yellow stuff that will send you to the ER.

It is called a furry caterpillar.

It is cute to look at but dangerous.

It does look like Trump s hair.

It's understandable a mattress maker would not want that kind of association.

He managed to invent a self-powered ass-kicking machine that works perpetually.

Shit, Einstein would be jealous of that.

but the fact that he had to do all this shit to make money shows he doesn't have the billions he claims to. i do wonder how he will keep his lifestyle without all of this crap.
