I contacted Amazon as I have a long standing Prime account and wanted to let them know how I felt.

Here is their response:
Initial Question: I want Amazon to know that I will not be renewing my account until they stop selling Trump family related products. I have been a very long time Prime member and do purchase quite a lot of items each year, I will miss your service. Here is hoping you make a ethical business decision.
11:53 AM PST Roopesh(Amazon): Hello, my name is Roopesh. I'm here to help you today.
Hello Steve.
11:54 AM PST Steve: I know you are just working the answer desk thing. I do hope you have a way to pass my concerns along.
11:55 AM PST Roopesh: I understand your concern Steve.
I will do my best to help you in this.
11:57 AM PST Steve: Someone at Amazon needs to know that there will be a large orchestrated boycott of all thing Trump and they need to get out of the way. I am not asking them to take a political stand, I am just hoping they can see the unethical situation the Trumps will take advantage of.
11:57 AM PST Roopesh: Steve, I'm so sorry for the inconvenience you experienced on seeing those items.
I too checked and noticed some of those items.
11:58 AM PST Roopesh: Thank you so much for getting this issue to us.
This items should be removed from the sale.
And I will take necessary action to do so.
11:59 AM PST Steve: I have no inconvenience. I have a deep commitment to not allowing our elected officials make profit from their positions.
11:59 AM PST Roopesh: I will escalate this issue to the catalog team.
They will check these items and will remove from same within 24 hours.
12:01 PM PST Steve: Thank you very much for your attention. It has always been my experience that Amazon holds the highest ethical standards and I hipe to see it stays that way.
Thanks and have a nice day.
12:01 PM PST Roopesh: You no need to be thanks. i would like to thank you for getting this issue to our knowledge.
