Now that Nordstrom has dropped Ivanka Trump’s clothing line, Donald Trump has launched — what else — a Twitter offensive against the Seattle department store. While buying something from Nordstrom is a nice show of solidarity (wouldn’t it be interesting if the company posted a banner sales month?), you can take it a step further with purchases that are a bit more pointed. Like a nice white pantsuit, or a newspaper tote bag, or a pair of boys’ gloves (size small).

Comme des Garçons Heart Graphic Woven Cotton Shirt $255 Because we cannot even begin to imagine what Rei Kawakubo would do to Donald Trump if left in a room alone with him, but we are fairly certain it would not be pretty. $255 at Nordstrom Buy

Smartwool Snowflake Pattern Crew Socks $24 Because as any kid who’s been bullied on the schoolyard will tell you, the only way to defuse an insult is to reclaim it as a badge of honor. Not only are these the most comfortably warm wool socks — they also scream, “Yes, I’m a snowflake, and I’m proud of it.” $24 at Nordstrom Buy

Update: These socks are sold out, but here’s a lovely, $12 snowflake choker.

The North Face ‘eTip’ Gloves (Boys) $40 Because these have double meaning! The easily bruised Trump really does need to be handled with kid gloves; and, of course, Drumpf is famously sensitive about his smaller-than-average hands. And either way, your son will have a nice, new pair of warm gloves. $40 at Nordstrom Buy
