- description: Kellyanne Conway Just Told Everybody To "Go Buy Ivanka’s Stuff". Kellyanne Conway’s Endorsement of Ivanka Products on Fox and Friends Apparently Violates Federal Law. Conway said she was giving a “free commercial” for Ivanka Trump’s products — a day after President Trump slammed Nordstrom for dropping his daughter’s brand. White House counselor Kellyanne Conway encouraged people to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff” during an interview with Fox and Friends Thursday. Conway used her appearance on the morning show to promote Ivanka Trump’s brand, a day after President Trump used the official @POTUS account to slam Nordstrom for dropping his daughter’s clothing line. Nordstrom announced last week that they were dropping Ivanka Trump’s clothing line because of declining sales of the brand. After the president’s public condemnation of Nordstrom, the company reiterated that their decision was based on the brand’s performance. However Conway appeared to criticize the online retailer for using Ivanka Trump to “get to” the president. “I do find it ironic that you’ve got some executives all over the internet bragging about what they’ve done to her and her line and yet they’re using the most prominent woman in Donald Trump’s…you know…she’s his daughter, and they’re using her whose been a champion for woman empowerment and women in the workplace to get to him,” Conway told Fox and Friends. “Go buy Ivanka’s stuff is what I would tell you,” Conway added. “I hate shopping but I’m gonna go get some myself today.” Ivanka has tried to distance herself from her brand. “It’s a wonderful line, I own some of it…I’m just going to give a free commercial here: Go buy it today, everybody. You can find it online,” Conway said. White House counselor Kellyanne Conway urged people to buy Ivanka Trump's clothing line during an interview Thursday morning, a comment that could be a violation of federal ethics law. Conway said on Fox News that Nordstrom's decision to stop selling Ivanka Trump's clothing line was not based on business decisions, as the company said, but instead to hurt President Trump. She hit out at boycotts of Trump products as misguided, but then endorsed Ivanka Trump's clothing line. "They're using her, who's been a champion for women empowerment and women in the workplace, to get to him, so I think people can see through that," Conway said. "Go buy Ivanka's stuff is what I would tell you. I hate shopping, but I'm going to go get some myself today." According to the Office of Government Ethics, executive branch employees " may not use their government positions to suggest that the agency or any part of the executive branch endorses organizations (including nonprofit organizations), products or people." During the interview, Conway was speaking from the White House briefing room. She had just wrapped up speaking about the president's continued confidence in Judge Neil Gorsuch, his pick for the Supreme Court who criticized his comments about judges in meetings with senators. The response from the White House to Nordstrom's decision to stop selling Ivanka Trump's clothing line has raised ethical concerns this week. On Wednesday, Trump tweeted that the store was being "so unfair" to his daughter for not selling her clothing, and then the official @POTUS account retweeted his statement. An expert told the Washington Examiner that Trump's Twitter activity was likely legal, but would be an ethical headache for the administration.
