Residents push for renaming of Trump Plaza to disassociate from ex-president

[Thingamabob]

'Some' residents would be a more accurate headline for this social media article.

my solution:

As well they should. 

Nearly anything with his name on it, and his association with it, fails. And that will be even more so, after he loses the next election. His name will remain radioactive, for the rest of his life, and the mini empire will continue to dwindle. During the period from 1985 to 1989, three years of which were boom year in NY real estate, he somehow managed to lose $359 million. Between 1990 and 1991 he lost $517 million. And between 1992 and 1995 he again managed to lose $286 million. 

 

The real irony of his whole persona, is that he cannot negotiate his way out of a paper bag, much less negotiate a treaty with an adversary, which makes him very dangerous.

Judging by recent polls it might increase the price.

 

If not, they should be happy they picked up a bargain.

 

This New Rochelle area sounds like Islington. Middle class lefties virtue signalling. "Ooohh I hate Trump more than you. No, I hate him much more than you, look I am even renaming my building". Pretty pathetic stuff... Childish.

I hope you're joking. Or do you really believe what you write?

Do you really think to buy an apartment has anything to do with "right" or "left"...??? 🤣😂🥳

Bottom line: To use the old clique. I've forgotten more about Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham than you could ever have hoped to have learnt during your 3 years living there.

 

Living in the past. It's 2024. It bears no resemblence to the 60's or whenever you were there.

Actually it was told by my brother, who was working in the real estate finance business at the time.

No free Rolex, but I can tell you where in Bkk to get one for a thousand baht.

 

You're being ripped off, man.

I vote to rename plaza Latitia James or Arthur Engoron Plaza.

[ballpoint]

To be fair, he'd have a case for getting at least one courthouse and a prison cell named after him in return.

What's the new name gonna be? Ivanka Plaza?

This will be all be fully over when Americans stop naming their boys Donald.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald

 

Donald is a masculine given name derived from the Gaelic name Dòmhnall.[1] This comes from the Proto-Celtic *Dumno-ualos ("world-ruler" or "world-wielder"

 

Perhaps his parents had big ideas when they named him.

Pot/kettle. When did you live in London? When did you last even visit the city or the country for that matter?

 

You are the one continually making negative comparisons between your perceived image of today's London and the London of your past.

Anything or anybody associating with tRump should be renamed or erased. However this is very doubtful, as 50% of americans (and 0.00% of the world) love this loser
