Ah, yep, you're right. The question was asking about both and I missed it.

That $83 million judgement did actually seem to shut him up for a few days but he's already sliding back into it.

I think they've been trying for a while to rebrand as a chain of coffee shops called DD that happens to sell donuts, rather than a chain of donut stores called Dunkin' Donuts that happens to sell coffee, probably because deep-fried lumps of dough covered in sugar don't sell as well in an environment where a lot of food marketing is based around health.

That continues to be the dumbest MBA level of brand-washing, and, maybe I'm just old, but has that ever "helped" an organization? KFC did it, AARP, even NPR did it.

All 3 of those worked fine because everyone already called them that. I've never in my life heard someone refer to dunkin donuts as "DD".

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
I think the hype build-up to the Trump Org fraud decision is only gonna be worth it if there's a good chance that the state seizes his company, all assets, and he and his larger, wetter adult children will completely lose the ability to do business in NY at all. The mental image of the big gold "TRUMP" letters being taken down all of his buildings just might be the thing to make him cry in public.

The money owed is secondary. He's gonna appeal that until he croaks. But to lose his entire business is REALLY gonna hurt :rms:

I thought that already happened around the world.

A bunch of property owners decided his name was toxic and had it removed. Pretty sure it's only safe at his golf courses.

The Trump Tower in toronto was mired in controversy and finally renamed to St. Regis. Also lol at this exerpt

quote:

The building and Shnaider have been named as key links in a financial connection between U.S. President Trump and the Russian government. The buyer, who financed by Vnesheconombank (VEB), have been described as "an entity acting for the Russian government." Trump quickly denied it and stated in February 2017 that there is "no person that I deal with [has dealings with Russia]."

well that settles it then

Lol the trump appointed judge didn’t want to get into it with the Florida government for not complying with discovery so he just did an insane ruling that Disney doesn’t have standing. From what I have heard the 11th circuit isn’t as bad as the 5th circuit but it’s still really bad and full of terrible right wing judges. Hopefully they appeal and get a George w judge and not another trump judge.

I think they're still using the DD logo, at least in some places, but they've also have officially changed their name to Dunkin' (dropping the "Donuts"). So I think you're right, no one really calls them DD, it's just the logo. Either way, they're trying to get away from the "donuts" association.

Yeah the documents case in Florida was the first or second one brought to charges and it's not even gonna maybe be considered to start being looked at until at least 2026 because Cannon is a chudge and is all but on record as saying she's trying to protect Trump from any consequences.

You might be a little behind and/or uninformed about the goings-on here.

The consequence isn't a permanent barring of him as well as Beavis and Butthead from doing business in NY, that barring has a clock of 5 years.

If he appeals anything, he's most likely going to be forced to liquidate some of his real estate assets. (He cannot use campaign funds to pay penalties.)
