Trump and the Trump Name..

..Donald Trump and his incompetence and total rudeness and insensitivity is ruining the name, "Trump."
...Of course, he doesn't know it, and he doesn't care, but that is the truth. When Trump is done, how many want to go to his hotels? Some, but who is going to book a convention there? Just the right wing companies. Who is going to want to stay there? What if things get worse, not better? We are talking about a name and a brand that is lead by "Donald Trump."
....Ok, one more idea for those who are reading this, and gotten this far: How many hotels and places in the U.S.A. have the name of Nixon? How many times have you seen Nixon's children interviewed? ..the end

3. Excellent point about Nixon. I dare say, he has surpassed Nixon on every level imaginable.

He has already annihilated the Trump brand, sure it will get worse as things get worse for him, but the damage is done. Things certainly aren't going to get any better for him or his brand.

Also, the idea that you think you are really something, when you are really nothing but a rich buffoon who got illegal help to get elected....But that one may be too much for some to handle.

10. To me that name, as a brand, represents vulgarity, tackiness, over-priced faux-luxury,

ostentation, nouveau-rich pretentiousness and vastly overpaying for an inferior product or service. I can't understand the appeal.

I can't believe anyone would think the Trump style was actually a high-end luxury brand.

on them and referring to them as "Strong" cards? That doesn't make sense to me.
