As the GOP nominee thrashes and careens towards November like a bear with both its eyes poked out, his prospective clientele are registering their disgust by boycotting his hotels and restaurants, tossing out their Trump neckties and pouring their Trump chardonnay down the drain. Retired doctor Morrie Gold told the New York Times that he and 11 friends had cancelled their annual golfing trip to one of Trump’s Florida resorts to make “an ethical statement”.
Adrian Gonzalez, the Mexican-American first baseman for the Los Angeles Dodgers, refused to stay at the Trump International Hotel in Chicago when his team travelled there to play the Cubs. The online travel firm Hipmunk found bookings for Trump hotels had fallen by more than half in the first six months of 2016, compared to the same period in 2015. “Check-in” app Foursquare said check-ins at Trump-owned venues went down 10 per cent in the year to July.
