It could be commercial, entertainment, restaurant, hooker...lol..I'll go first, my game..
Trump International, Vegas....Not really why you'd think. Property is to far north from the strip, no casino, just a boring hotel but because now it's trump the president, I wouldn't stay there for free.
Venetian, Palazzo hotels in Vegas- Now this is totally political..Sheldon Adelson, big R donor. So he ain't getting my money, Knowingly by me.
Trump steaks, ties, suits, underwear or basically anything with trumps name on it.
Other then that, I'm good. I like In-N-Out Burger..and that chick is nuts.

for almost any Republican candidate. I’ll only consider voting for a Republican now if they’ve made it clear they don’t agree with Trump’s behavior.  

That greatly limits the field.

And of course I avoid buying anything associated with Trump.

I don't buy that much stuff. I don't consume much stuff.
If something is cheap that's what I buy. I only buy for myself so whatever one thing I buy makes no difference.  
I might boycott not on purpose or not for a purpose. In that case I boycott most of the stuff out there.  
I boycott pretty, normal, good priced "providers". But I don't do it on purpose. So please ladies don't get mad at me.

...because I don't do arts & crafts, but if I ever do I won't shop there.

Hobby Lobby are bigger thumpers than Chick-fil-Assholes.  Their motto is: " "Honoring the Lord in all we do by operating the company in a manner consistent with Biblical principles."  Apparently they only care about the principles in the NEW Testament.  A shopper was told by a store employee that Hobby Lobby did not carry merchandise celebrating Jewish holidays, as the store did not "cater to you people."

 
They're anti LGBT and anti Obamacare.  The crooked thumpers bought 5,500 looted artifacts from Iraq.  They had to return them and pay a $3 million fine.

 
In March, Hobby Lobby said they would keep their stores open because they were an "essential service" -- selling fabric and school supplies.  However in April, they closed all their stores and furloughed nearly all employees without pay.  They said that they were "ending emergency leave pay and suspending use of company provided paid time off benefits and vacation."  I guess they didn't want to be their "brother's keeper."

I don't actually "boycott" them either because like most people on this board I engage in a VERY different "hobby" but like you if I did use any of their products, the last place I would buy them from would be "Hobby Lobby" for the very reasons you cite, well except for the "anti Obamacare stance" of theirs. I am as anti Obamacare as you get, but for VERY, VERY different reasons.  

 
If a company claims that they "operate on Biblical principles blah blah blah" that means they do NOT cater to people like me, so why should I give them my money?

is my go-to Vegas hotel because they are non-smoking except for the casino.  I guess you don't play bridge either because most hands have a suit that is trump, unless you sit out until there is a no-trump bid?  Lol

The small-t trump suits are Diamonds, Clubs, Hearts, and Spades. Capital-T Trump is joker and has no role in the game of bridge.  Your bid.

I doubt that Trump knows how to play bridge or could be any good at it because it requires logical thinking, dynamic analysis, and careful planning and execution. If you sat at a bridge table with Trump you can rest assured that he would cheat in the sloppiest, most transparent ways possible. "I don't have any fours. Go fish." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheating_in_bridge
