Do you have to be a war hero to stay there?
Hey great! Glad they can afford a $120 "Trump tower" ( see below).
1 lb. Lobster, 8 oysters, 4 clams, 4 shrimp, blue crab cocktail, cocktail sauce, mignonette, Old Bay aioli.
Who doesn't think seafood = stackable?

He doesn't own the building by the way. He signed a 60 year lease. It's Federal Property so NO GUNS ALLOWED.
Oh and he's already suing to get his tax bill lowered
7. Trump still has to pay taxes on the hotel and the IRS is watching from VERY close distance.
Although the federal government does not pay property taxes for its buildings (same as colleges and universities) a few years ago the D.C. government created a rule requiring private entities in public buildings to pay a tax. This didnt sit well with the Trumps, who initially inquired about getting the tax revoked and are now suing the District to get their tax bill lowered.
Lastly, you want Trumpian management???
3. The Trumps have been checking on progress, despite their campaign duties.
Donald and Ivanka Trump werent on hand Monday to open the doors but Donald Trump stopped by Friday to check on things and staff say Ivanka Trump checks in every other day or so and has had a hand in designing bedspreads, bellhop uniforms and more. She called this morning to see how everything is going. Shes going to be here later this week. Shes probably going to call again tonight. Shes very involved, said Mickael Damelincourt, the hotels general manager.

(5,969 posts)While he said he liked to get Americans working again, he never intended to make it appear as if he intends to pay them what they deserve. That was just a misunderstanding.

What a sleezy bastard. This on top of his racism, anti-semetism, anti-immigrant, anti-women, anti-Muslim, anti-every Goddamn thing.
