Trump employees call for boycott of all things Trump
As the craziest presidential campaign season ever seem to get crazier by the day if not the hour, one candidate’s employees decide to hit him where it hurts – in the pocketbook:
Click here for reuse options!A Nevada restaurant workers union is calling on a nationwide boycott of all things Donald Trump in light of the Republican nominee refusing to negotiate a new contract with more than 500 eligible workers at his high-rise Las Vegas hotel.
“After a disgraceful anti-union campaign against their own workers, the hotel still refuses to negotiate with their employees,” said Geoconda Arguello-Kline, the top officer of the Culinary Union, which represents about 57,000 Las Vegas-area hospitality workers. “We call on allies and workers to stand in solidarity in a national boycott until Donald Trump, the ‘Great Negotiator,’ comes to the table.”
The so-called #BoycottTrump campaign calls on Americans to refrain from eating, sleeping or playing at any of Trump’s many hotels and golf courses.

Could be effective since most of his ‘followers’ can’t afford to stay at his places.

Taco bowl, as seen on Trump’s desk May 5, $18 with Dago’s famous sauce.

The more the merrier but, His brand is going down with or without union boycott.

Alleluia Alleluia Alleluia!!!
He’s finally free falling and, oh boy, won’t he ever regret running for president!
I bet he didn’t see all the negatives coming against him personally, his businesses and his stinking brand now.
Of course, it was a great ego trip for him, but for a very high cost.
He’ll be very busy from hereon defending himself against fraud on: Trump University, Trump Foundation, Bribery, Cuba business, Russian dealings and many, many more that he’s recently been exposed.
He’ll be very lucky to get many lawyers, supplier, contractors, workers, etc that he’d need after everyone knows now how he stiffed 1,000’s of them.
There’s justice and there’s God after all!
Sweet Sweet Sweet!

“…won’t he ever regret running for president!” i’ve been saying that for some time. it’s been his narcissism that has kept him in the race. he can’t see failure and that’s his downfall. this has been glorious for me to witness. he so deserves to be knocked down quite a few pegs.

He makes Nixon look squeaky clean
Larry Schmitt October 1st, 2016 at 19:53
And Nixon was a nasty sonofabitch.

Several businesses and business owners have endorsed Donald Trump. Many depend on an immigrant workforce and an immigrant customer base, which makes it even more offensive that they would publicly endorse a candidate who has repeatedly made racist, misogynistic, bigoted and divisive remarks.
Here is a short list of pro-trump companies.
Bally’s Casino Tunica
Raffles International
Raffles Hotels & Resorts
Fairmont Hotels and Resorts
Swissotel
Miramax (owned jointly with Qatar Investment Authority, Tutor-Saliba Corporation and The Weinstein Company)
PayPal
Formula One Group
NASCAR
Fountainbleau Resort Las Vegas
Pep Boys,
Tropicana Entertainment,
West Point Home
The Home Depot
UFC
Beal Bank
Las Vegas Sands
Boycott everything trump.
Buford2k11 October 1st, 2016 at 11:15
so, will this tarnish his reputation with the blue collar, white working class? Ya know, the very base in which he counts on?…how anti-union can he be, without the uneducated finally taking notice? so, in celebration of these past few days of the revelations of Trump’s real business practices, I will leave this photo…enjoy the moment of Trump’s failure…

Larry Schmitt October 1st, 2016 at 12:03
His problem is, the white, blue collar voters are a minority now. Attacking every other group – women, blacks and Hispanics, immigrants – makes it pretty close to mathematically impossible for him to win.
PattyJM October 1st, 2016 at 14:48
The problem is that his blue-collar base has heard nothing but anti-union propaganda for decades, now. Say “union” and they will think of corruption and lost jobs. Were that it were not so but that’s what progressives are faced with.
Some years ago I made an effort to get Nextel’s Seattle office unionized. Over and over again people said just those things.
This boycott attempt won’t affect his base because they do not understand what a union is and how they could benefit from being in one.
StoneyCurtisll October 1st, 2016 at 17:45
He has the backing of one union…..
The Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed Donald Trump….
Go figure..
whatthe46 October 1st, 2016 at 17:47
yeah, and that’s who we depend on to protect us. GOD help us all.

The FOP are total A-Holes who back any criminal action any cop may take…

Thank you.
StoneyCurtisll October 1st, 2016 at 17:43
I have boycotted everything Trump as long as I have been around…
Not because I wanted to do it, (until now)..
I have never been exposed to anything “trump” until this election cycle..
And I will continue to not do anything that puts a penny in trumps pockets.
StoneyCurtisll October 1st, 2016 at 18:37
Some lesser known Trump endorsments..

Isn’t Trump’s Hotel businesses already down something like 52% this year ????
whatthe46 October 1st, 2016 at 21:18
yep. and just imagine that it’s free fallin’ faster and faster. now, in 3…2…1, he’ll be filing for bankruptcy when the DC hotel fails. i’m loving this O.
The Original Just Me October 1st, 2016 at 22:03
That DC Hotel was finished early and under budget. I wonder if all of the floors were done or only the first few ????? HUMMMMM
whatthe46 October 1st, 2016 at 22:31
it isn’t finished. LOL
The Original Just Me October 1st, 2016 at 23:17
Do you suppose Trump is a few nickels short on cash ? :+)
whatthe46 October 1st, 2016 at 23:21
i think the contractors quit. he only paid for 1/2 a job.
The Original Just Me October 1st, 2016 at 23:24
If you do the work, you need the pay to buy family groceries with. I wondered if He might not get all of the job done when I first read about it. Me and My Hunches.
StoneyCurtisll October 2nd, 2016 at 09:15
Or if it was “under budget” because he didn’t pay the contractors.
The Original Just Me October 2nd, 2016 at 10:33
Trump is under budget in the Human Department.
