Cher calls Trump 'racist cretin,' 500,000+ sign petition for Macy's to drop him

In the aftermath of Trump's election night meltdown, singer Cher called him a 'racist cretin' on Twitter, igniting a nasty public feud. Trump responded by attacking her appearance: 'I don't wear a wig. Cher, I don't know how to break this to you... but I'm worth billions of dollars.' More significantly, over 500,000 people signed a petition urging Macy's to stop carrying Trump merchandise and drop him from advertising. The petition cited his 'especially hateful and inflammatory' statements about President Obama. Macy's initially stood by Trump, though the department store would eventually cut ties with him in 2015 after his Mexican 'rapists' comments.
