I'm on my last day here in Vegas and I seen this eerie building up close.

Have no interest in setting foot in that establishment for obvious reasons, but has anybody here actually did make a visit to one of these? What was it like? All my friends keep telling me stories about how he wasn't able to get a gambling license in Nevada which shocked me. Out of all people I would think Trump would be the type of person to jump in on gaming here..

Lol I was in Vegas a few weeks ago too; looked out my window, and saw.... a Trump hotel (though it was a bit farther away than that)

I wouldn't step foot in there because I know myself and I would be giving EVERYONE inside a really angry/dirty look

I stayed at the Trump Taj Mahal when it was open in Atlantic City. It was off-season so we had a suite with a lounge, a hot tub in the bedroom and mirrors on the ceiling, it was a classy place.

Fuck no, and I wish that pos building in Vegas would go bankrupt already so I don't have to look at it everytime I go.

I went to a company meeting/conference at his Doral resort in Florida about a decade ago.

Place was a shithole. Parts of it were being renovated, and it was supposed to be done before our meeting.

Few years ago, I was at another conference, and they were just playing a loop of pictures from previous meetings. A picture of the Doral entrance came up, and the entire auditorium booed.

I think there was going to be a second building,but they quickly abandanded that when the economy crashed? Hopefully this one comes crashing down soon. It doesn't even look as nice as some of the other ones on the strip anyways.

I visited the one in Vegas around 2012 or so. A friend was getting married and booked a suite there. It was nice--comparable to Wynn or Aria, which were top end at the time.

It's too bad it bears such a shitty name.

A few years before he became president I went to his casino in Atlantic City, it felt like a dump.

When I was in NYC a few months ago, we were near the Trump tower and people were singing "Fuck Trump", it was beautiful.

My wife and I were in Vegas last summer. Out of sheer curiosity decided to take a look inside. It was packed and people of all races appeared to be staying there which surprised me.

Seemed like a nice hotel in fairness. Except for the gift shop which was full of cheesy pro trump memorabilia

edit: there was actually pro trump memorabilia all over Vegas. And a lot of people walking around with MAGA hats And the like. Coming from Ireland I mostly only read and hear about anti trump so it was eye opening.

There's a Trump building in Vancouver but as far as I understand it's not directly affiliated; the owners license the name / brand. That is still some fuckery on some level for sure. Why ever associate?

The restaurant is called Mott 32; high-end Chinese spot. Honestly, was quite good.

But again, very tangential.

Trump plaza and the taj. I still have pens from both. I preferred the plaza just because of the cheaper parking and the fact it was connected to ceasers. Won most of my money at the taj though. Vegas Trump doesn't count.

I last visited Atlantic City in 2013, and his was the only property that I avoided like the plague. One of the benefits (?) of growing up in NJ is that I've always known Trump to be a sack of pig shit.

Happy to say I never set foot in one of those sleeze pits, even though I've been around AC for a lot of my life. The Taj, the Tower, the Plaza... all examples of sleeze, greed and excess.

I've stayed at the Trump hotel in Vegas. That was back in 2012 and in retrospect I'm incredibly sorry for giving him money. Also I hate to say it but the room was really comfortable and had an incredible view. The whole place had more of an quiet business vibe compared to other Vegas resorts.

I went inside Trump tower on 5th Ave once back in 2012 or 2013, seemed tacky and overpriced and also a place I wasn't welcome in
