The Beandocks Cuco: What are you doing now, Donnie? Trump: I am issuing a travel ban to Nordstrom Eddie: First they came for Nordstrom but I didn't shop there...
Nordstrom is one of the better American department stores. Still owned by the same family that founded it in Seattle and was a shoe store first. They aren’t cheap but the goods are good quality.
Just in case anyone doesn’t get the allusion, here’s what it’s based on:
“They first came for the Communists and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.Then they came for the Jews and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.Then they came for the Catholics and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.” —Pastor Martin Niemoeller (1892–1984), Nazi victim
