Kimberly Benza, director of executive operations for the Trump Organization, says:

“Mr Young’s [the developer] attempt to blame certain world events for our termination of the agreement is merely a ploy to distract from his own defaults and failures.”

Sounds like it’s not just the brand that’s toxic.

Remember it is likely Trump will lose office or possibly shuffle off before it is complete and then all the truth will out and everyone will deny following the regime, meanwhile you will be halfway through building Hitler High-rise.

Just do what happened in Chicago. Build an absolutely beautiful building, load it up, then in a few years have the fucker buy it and slap his name on it.

Good. Fuck off Trump.

I trust it would be pretty hard to secure funding for what would ultimately be a $1.5b loss, since barely anyone would use the stupid hotel.
