The Trump Organization is issuing legal threats to prevent some buildings from ditching the Trump name, but one of the places where Trump’s name has already been removed is a hilarious/depressing reminder of how Donald does business:
Next to go was the “Trump Carousel” in New York’s Central Park.
The problem there: “It was never named Trump Carousel,” said Crystal Howard of the New York City parks department.
She said the Trump Organization — which had a contract to operate the attraction, whose name is theFriedsam Memorial Carousel — had simply put up a sign that renamed it “Trump Carousel.” The sign seems to have been up for months, but the city only learned of it in April 2017. Officials ordered the sign taken down that day.
They just put up a sign. The Michael Friedsam Foundation gave the carousel to the children of the city in 1951, but whatevs. If the Trump Organization has the management contract, they’re going to slap Donald’s name on it.
