Trump Hotel guests received a complimentary USA Today declaring Trump unfit for the presidency

USA Today broke with tradition and allowed its editorial board to anti-endorse Donald Trump today. With the headline screaming “Trump ‘Unfit for the Presidency,’” USA Today readers everywhere were probably shocked to know that USA Today even had an editorial board (I kid). But more importantly, as Buzzfeed points out—numerous guests staying at one of the many ostentatious Trump-branded hotels probably woke up to see that front page as well.

Representatives for four Trump-branded hotels — Trump International Hotel & Tower in New York, Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago, Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC, and Trump Doral in Miami — told BuzzFeed News that guests are provided a complimentary copy of the paper. The front page of Friday’s edition featured a tease of the editorial, with the headline “TRUMP UNFIT FOR THE PRESIDENCY.”

At two properties, Trump Waikiki in Hawaii and Trump International Hotel Las Vegas, the newspaper is sold at the property in the hotel shop. A representative for Trump SoHo said they offered a copy for a fee.

In Canada, guests at the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Toronto can get a complimentary copy.


So sweet.

I hope he doesn't retaliate against the employees who distributed those papers. He's that sort of person.

this sorry travesty of a campaign is finally over

anybody think there's going to be another protracted horrorshow of a post election legal fiasco, ca. 2000?

if it's anywhere close, you can count on the fact that Trump is going to sue sue sudio.

unless, of course, that he doesn't really want to be stuck making only 400 K (170 times less than he claims to have made last year)
