America loves their celebrities . Even if Trump does not win his brand will still be strong .
You don't think he'll write more books , do more TV shows , etc?
I could see him as a talking head on the news networks too as a paid commentator.
Even CNN will pay him since they know he's a figure that gets a lot of viewers .

People already saying his D.C. Hotel is failing? Isn't it just opening now ?
Funny.

Everyone knows a new business takes a while to establish even if it's an existing brand .

Of course, that begs the question: would a Clinton supporting going to the inauguration be willing to spend the night at the Trump hotel? Hmm.
Wouldn't it be a hoot if it turns out that the new trump hotel is the only one in DC that isn't booked solid during clinton's inauguration?

But Hillary isn't trailing in the polls. Trump is, and yet he chooses to spend valuable time boosting his hotel in DC where he will get no votes, instead of spending every moment of time he has left in Florida, Ohio, North Carolina or Pennsylvania.

Conflating a construction project (wasn't this the typical license-only deal?) with running a nation and promoting public good . . . . . Apples to Oranges (see what I did there).

He thought this election would put him on top of the world, but it has not been that way at all. He needs to regroup and try to save his cash cow.
You know if the man wasn't such a d*** I'd feel sorry for him. But he is, and it is hard to have much sympathy. Have to feel for the people that have rolled the dice with Trump. Can you imagine if you owned or managed a property where you paid big $$$ for his nameplate? I am sure they are running scared, hopefully there was some protection in their contract to use the Trump brand to hedge their losses.

Default With 13 days to go, Trump spends time promoting a new hotel

Internal polls must be looking good!
