"A progressive political group is calling for Donald Trump to be fired as a spokesperson for Macy&amp;#039;s department stores. Trump appears in a holiday advertisement for the retail chain, in which he alludes to his questions about US President Barack Obama&amp;#039;s citizenship by questioning Santa Claus&amp;#039;s true identity.      Move On has now authored an online petition calling for Macy&amp;#039;s to sack Trump due to his history of making controversial comments. The group said in its petition: &amp;quot;Donald Trump does not reflect the &amp;#039;magic of Macy&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;. We urge you to sever ties with him. Macy&amp;#039;s says it has a strong obligation to be &amp;#039;socially responsible&amp;#039; and that &amp;#039;actions speak louder than words&amp;#039;. Indeed. It&amp;#039;s time to act.&amp;quot; Trump was also chided by Move On for allegedly making sexist comments about female celebrities, denying climate change and criticising US trade policy with China even though Macy&amp;#039;s does business with the country.  Move On&amp;#039;s petition to have Trump fired by Macy&amp;#039;s has so far been signed by more than 450,000 people. Cher notably called for her Twitter followers to sign the petition in a message posted on the microblogging website on Sunday (November 11). &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll NEVER GO TO MACY&amp;#039;S AGAIN ! I didnt know they sold Donald Trump&amp;#039;s Line! If they don&amp;#039;t care that they sell products from a LOUDMOUTH,&amp;quot; Cher wrote. Trump has not specifically addressed the petition, but did tweet on Monday (November 12): &amp;quot;Just saw my new line of shirts, ties &amp;amp; suits @Macys -- they are fantastic! Would make great holiday presents!&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
