Oucher!
The kids probably only campaigned for him, to get his obnoxious ass out of the business.
Now he's ruining it.
I bet his $10 billion Net Worth went down $12 Billion.

Trump name dumped from new branded hotels
Trump Hotels announced that their newest hotels will be called Scion
October 23, 2016
Trump Hotels Scion | Trump Hotels Rebrand

Trump’s name may be everywhere right now – except on new hotels. Following reports that occupancy rates at Trump Hotels are falling, new hotels from the brand will now longer bear Trump’s name.

Instead, the new line of Trump Hotels will be called Scion, according to Fortune. The rebranding is said to be part of a new push geared towards millennials."

“We wanted a name that would be a nod to the Trump family and to the tremendous success it has had with its businesses, including Trump Hotels, while allowing for a clear distinction between our luxury and lifestyle brands,” Trump Hotels CEO Eric Danziger said in a statement.

However, Trump Hotels insist the rebranding has nothing to do with the Trump controversial presidential campaign. They say they are simply reacting to empty rooms.

At the new Trump International Hotel in D.C, rates fell Below $500, while nearly Every Other five-star hotel was sold out for the International Monetary Fund conference."..."​
 
Not a surprise. When you campaign on intentional divisiveness it makes sense to see a business impact.

Anyone really expect otherwise?

Just business.

Not very many people know, that the Ritz-Carlton chain of luxury hotels are owned by Marriott. It doesn't say Marriott anywhere on their names or advertising:

Considering that name is a brand owned by Toyota, I highly doubt his hotels will use it.
 
It will be interesting to see what Don and the kids do now.

I hope that they dont have regrets.

I but the kids will. Trump himself won't if he losses. If he wins then his brand will be able to make a comeback though.

Hard to say for sure, but when we watch over and over corporations dumping partnerships instantly when the brand becomes controversial (think Paula Deen) I fear for the worst.

McCain and Romney's popularity dropped like a stone after their loses and Trump will be no different. To rephrase Trump, "Voters like politicians who win". My heart bleeds for him....not.

Like I said, I sorta expect big trouble ahead for the brand. But you know what.... depending upon how history gets written a huge self sacrifice from Trump might just end up a big part of the "Legend of Trump".

IDK, and like I said someplace a few days ago (maybe last week, I have problems with time) I was never invested in Trump, I am invested in The Rebellion, and I think it will do just dandy with Hillary in the POTUS chair. She always sucks. And I am sure that next time we will have much better people than Trump asking to go to Washington to clean it up. I cast my vote for Trump today, dont expect to hear me say that I was anything but very proud to do so.

It has been a very good year for those who demand change.

Trump had a lot to do with that.

So did my number two guy.

Crazy Bernie.
