Walmart Inc (WMT) has reportedly removed the controversial anti-Trump “Impeach 45” clothing from its website after a number of users expressed their discontent on Twitter.

Walmart shares closed higher for the fifth time in the past nine trading sessions in New York on Tuesday. The stock went up 0.52% ($0.44) to $84.44, with the intraday high and the intraday low being at $85.05 and $84.09 respectively.

Shares of Walmart Inc have retreated 14.49% so far in 2018 compared with a 1.48% gain for the underlying index, S&P 500 (SPX).

In 2017, Walmart’s stock surged 42.87%, thus, it outperformed the S&P 500, which registered a 19.42% return.

The chairman of the group Students for Trump, Ryan Fournier, was among the first users to find out the clothing item was being sold by the retail chain, the International Business Times reported.

“What kind of message are you trying to send?”, Fournier asked in a tweet.

“I didnt want to believe it. So I searched for myself. This is despicable. All American Walmart? Im out!!!”, another user said in a post on the social network.

“These items were sold by third party sellers on our open marketplace, and were not offered directly by Walmart”, a spokesperson for the retail chain said in a response, cited by Fox News.

“We’re removing these types of items pending review of our marketplace policies”, the person added.
