What a bittersweet consolation prize for Republicans - while bring down the GOP and vandalizing our democracy the destroyer] destroys himself. :blank: :smirk: ;-) :-P Now, the big question is, considering that Mr. Trump's hotels have rejected The Power of Trump - hopefully American voters will show at least as much sense. :blank: I think the scoop goes to Mr. Henry Grabar.
The Trump Brand Is So Toxic That His Company Is Now Planning Hotels Without His Name on Them By Henry Grabar | OCT. 14 2016 The business development team at Trump Hotels appears to agree. As Politico pointed out on Friday, at the end of September the company, led by Trump and his three oldest children, announced its new hotel brand would be called Scion. That means “descendant of a notable family," noted the press release. What’s really notable, of course, is that Scion is the rare—and possibly singular—venture of the Trump commercial empire that does not wear the blustering patriarch’s name like a badge.

I admit, a closer reading

Amidst reports that occupancy rates at Trump Hotels have slipped this election season, the company has announced that new brand hotels will no longer bear the Trump name. The newest line of luxury hotels, geared towards millennials, will be called Scion, the company said. ...
indicates they are talking about new hotel acquisitions moving forward. What's weird here is that Trump has been peddling the Trump name - That's what his hotel deals are all about. He doesn't offer any development expertise, he may offer some dime a dozen management services, but that's even questionable. The "Trump" properties bubble has been all about the Trump Mystique. Scion Second Generation of Sycophants - just doesn't have that Mr.T charm.

Given what the American people have learned about Trump and his business dealings, that may be all the car he can afford in the future.

Worse, all the attacks and insults and take-downs he's endured from big and small (For instance I think Hillary would have done herself a big favor by shutting her mouth after her first couple jokes at that Catholic Al Smith dinner - going on and on sucked.) - I imagine he is going to eat everything that's been dished out against him and stew on the poisonous brew and then come back with vengeance in mind. Sad thing is no one can seem to match the man's ruthlessness, so watch out America, TTT is coming.
