Celebrities are taking a page out of Chelsea Handler’s playbook and throwing their money at Nordstrom.
Just a few days after the president of the United States attacked the retailer on Twitter for dropping his daughter Ivanka Trump’s line, Handler went on a Nordstrom shopping spree, then took her purchases to the White House.

Can't wait to go shopping at Nordstrom today!

Mia Farrow, Aidy Bryant, Judd Apatow and Patton Oswalt were among those who tweeted glowing endorsements of the store or talked about future shopping trips:
I've never plugged a store but Nordstrom is great

If only our so called President listened to her. I love @Nordstrom and will keep shopping there to make a point-- and I need slacks! https://t.co/RggdS9mMr3

Been very into Nordstrom for a long time. Yah, I shopped there but in high school I used to really get down on the panini in their cafe.

I will be shopping the FUCK out of @Nordstrom tomorrow. What's a good song for a "trying on shirts" montage?

Nordstrom cited a lack of sales for their decision to stop carrying Ivanka Trump merchandise, but George Takei saw the move as something bigger happening with businesses in America:
When Uber, Starbucks and Nordstrom take a stand, it gives courage to others to also walk away, to reject "do business with Trump or else."
— George Takei (@GeorgeTakei) February 10, 2017
It seems like all of the attention to Nordstrom paid off, as Handler pointed out on Twitter:
Nordstrom stock had a record day after getting rid of Trump merchandise, the government should follow suit. Also, unfollow trump on twitter.
