Trump stayed at Ritz Carlton instead of the Trump hotel

in Waikiki? Usually he wants to promote the heck out of his hotels. We walked by that Trump Hotel from the outside and it was not impressive at all. It was not even on the main strip(not oceanfront). I'm glad so many Hawaiians protested yesterday. I knew I love Hawaii for a reason. 😊 The Welcome to Kenya sign was the best. He is so pathetic.

We were there in September and went into the lobby it was like a ghost town in there. Not many people around.

We usually stay at an Ohana hotel because it has a kitchen, free parking and low key for our son with Autism. But if if was just my husband and I we’d stay at the outrigger.

I think he just licenses his name in many cases. He may not profit from actual room rentals there.

to "thank his employees." There's an article and pictures of it over in the LBN Forum.
