2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumKellyanne Conway: Trump's DC "pit stop" was incredible, stunning, because, you know...Adele.
The real estate moguls decision to take a break from the campaign trail to officially open Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C., built in the citys historic Old Post Office building, has raised eyebrows among some who believe that his time might be better spent on the stump. But Conway said the ribbon cutting will put front and center the type of business acumen that Trump would bring to the White House, located just blocks away.
That Hillary Clinton stopped in Miami on Tuesday night to take in part of an Adele concert should make Trumps hotel visit look even more campaign-worthy by comparison, Conway suggested.
Hes making a pit stop here in Washington and his under-budget, ahead-of-schedule hotel is really remarkable. It shows Americans the tangible accomplishments of Donald Trump. Hes somebody who builds things. Hes somebody who fixes things, she told NBCs Today show Wednesday morning. And you know, respectfully, Hillary Clinton has time to go to an Adele concert and everybody thinks that's really cool. Donald Trump stops off to unveil just an incredible, stunning piece of architecture, new hotel, first-class hotel and everybody's hair is on fire.
Wednesdays event at Washingtons Trump hotel is not the first of the campaign for the Manhattan billionaire. He held a news conference at the property in mid-September, ostensibly to address his longtime support for the so-called birther movement that questioned whether Barack Obama was qualified to be elected president. Trump spent 30 minutes at the event, which was carried live by all the major cable news networks, talking up his new hotel and offering a parade of decorated veterans the opportunity to praise him.

(5,268 posts)1. Laughable how Trump has been bitching about Hillary going to Adele concert
Obvious jealousy since only entertainers that support him are caliber and popularity of Ted Nugent.

it's because he's done it.

...and probably with undocumented workers!

(56,828 posts)8. Is he also using immigrant labor on his campaign, too?
like he did with the hotel?

(11,417 posts)3. A month or two ago I heard on MSM that the hotel was supposed to open in 2015.
I can't remember who reported it.

allowed a few hours off to celebrate her birthday? They are so pathetic.
