Damaged brand: New Trump hotels will no longer bear his name

th reports that Trump hotels are seeing occupancy rates plummet faster than the GOP presidential nominee is falling in the polls, the CEO for Trump Hotels announced future travelers won’t be seeing the old name on any new developments.

According to Travel + Leisure, new Trump luxury hotels will now bear the “Scion” name.According to CEO Eric Danzinger, the new name reflects the family without using the brand name Trump has spent a lifetime building.

“We wanted a name that would be a nod to the Trump family and to the tremendous success it has had with its businesses, including Trump Hotels, while allowing for a clear distinction between our luxury and lifestyle brands,” Danziger said in a press release.

now largely based on his "brand" ran for president, assuring that the entire world would come to know The Real Donald Trump. I've been wondering if this would ruin him, and it seems it well may. No wonder he's unhappy.

November 28 he goes to court in the first of three very large civil trials for Trump U.
