Trump doesn't actually own most of the hotels that bear his name. Those are mostly licensing deals.

Someone wiser than I recently said that Trump is not a hotel owner, he's a hotel promoter.

Let's face it: the Trump brand is probably ruined. Thankfully.

Trump has cut taxes and regulations. The american oligarchs will reward him. It will show the way for future Republicans.
